Militia Forms In Bonners Ferry? Hunh?

 (The Spokesman-Review)

They say they aren’t a bunch that will be running thru the woods with a beer and guns. … Well, that is reassuring. But some of the rest of their thoughts are not.. at least not to this old gal … I could say more, but I better not, I don’t want to be the receiving end of hate mail. But it surprised me that the Bee had it as a big story on front page, with big headlines, yet didn’t have the story on their online paper at all … were they afraid some one might find this thru Google? After all we are just finally getting the story of the Butler and his group to fade somewhat/ Simple Mind . More here .

  • Related: Gimlet-eyed Dennis spotted an article on the militia (including a link to the militia Web site) in the Bonners Ferry Herald online May 28 here .

Question: Should the Bee have publicized this group on its front page? Why do you suppose the Bee didn’t provide a link to the story on its online site? Aren’t militias passe — even for this part of the country?
