INW: Anti-Gummint Extremists ♥ INW

A Missoula County Sheriff’s Department SWAT team drives on U.S. Highway 12 near Lolo, Mont., last week after officers responded to a tip about about person living in a remote cabin in the area that they suspected might be fugitive former militia leader David Burgert. Several law enforcement officers from the Missoula County Sheriff’s Department and the FBI responded to the area but did not find Burgert. Increasingly, extremists are finding fertile ground for their views in northwest Montana. Story here. (AP Photo/Missoulian, Kurt Wilson)
