Iirc, homeboy doesn't have any permits, so bulldoze his building already. Nobody cares about your ammosexuality, but you have to be respectful of your neighbors.

This is correct. No permits were issued for several buildings. Zoning and permitting exists for a reason. This Gadsden flag flying citizen has to obey the same rules as the rest of us. The buildings should be demolished and he should be sent a bill.

Didn't he also like try to divert a creek to flood his neighbors house?

To flood their alfalfa field. After sending some of his buddies over to threaten their lives.

Why does this douchebag deserve special treatment?

Because he’s a right wing lunatic. God forbid the legal system throw the book at these people.

He is not getting special treatment. If you look at any number of zoning violations which have made it as far as court cases and state intervention, extensions and delays are the norm, not the exception. This is mostly because the other option is the state going on private land and doing something. What is the state going to do, send in the demo crew to take down an outbuilding and incur the legal risk of doing so? Not to mention, no matter who the person is the headlines of “state bulldozes private structures as owner tries to raise money to appeal” or some such headline baiting bullshit will cause an outcry.

Septic fixes, out building permits, setback violations, all sorts of shit gets a pass. The state has a loud bark and tiny bite on zoning issue.

Vermont will let you slide on stuff like this but you better have a working ashtray in your car.

These literal domestic terrorists need to fuck all the way off. They aren't from here and we shouldn't tolerate terrorist compounds in our backyards.

I’ve been shooting there, owner is a cock jockey, but some of the folks are fine regular minded people.

They should have just got permits. Simple solutions to the issue, but at this point he is trying to have them come on the property and tear it down.

Unlikely anything is going to happen with this until the town thinks they can safely send a crew to demolish the buildings.

And don't forget Governor Phil Scott's brave and forward leaning response when queried regarding heavily armed thugs associated with Slate Ridge terrorizing our fellow Vermonters: "What would you suppose we should do?" ("Scott on Slate Ridge response: ‘What would you suppose we should do?’", VTDigger, 10/30/20)

Just sayin'.

At this point, /u/RamaSchneider could present the solution to cold fusion, and most of us would still assume it's some random bullshit.

Nah, I always give him a fair shake. He has a good take sometimes. Lots of folks here do see a name and downvote though. Kinda sad and definitely contributes to the Reddit echo chamber.

Your opinion of your peer redditors is charming.

That's a word. Accurate is another. No reason to pretend it's something it's not. This place is a cesspool. An amusing cesspool but a cesspool none the less.

Fuck you Rama always stirring up shit. You as well as I know no crime had been committed then. The guys are scumbags sure but this is still America and we have rights. Can't just start witch hunts without evidence which is what the Governor was trying to express. I suspect you know all this though and that makes it worse. You also chopped the most important part of the quote off to suit your agenda. Here it is in full:

“But if it doesn't rise to the level of criminal offense, what would you suppose we should do?”

Knock it off asshole.

An alternative: Governor Phil Scott could have gone down to the Slate Ridge area and stood shoulder to shoulder with our fellow Vermonters who were being terrorized.

But he chose not to.

I've been told on multiple occasions that threatening words and behavior are not themselves illegal; but I don't care - Scott could have done the decent thing, but our Governor was more interested in staying above the fray.

That was Phil's choice.

My posts did not make him do that.
