Alt-right Coloradans went to war with an alpaca farm- and farm won.

Our guy James [a pseudonym] spotted them. He hit them with a spotlight, and told them, Remove yourselves, or die. And they ran like jackrabbits. I credit him for potentially saving our lives that night, Penny Logue tells me. It was a literal wake-up call.

Where its safe from haters. I hate that they have to arm themselves like they do but thats the country we live in. Fight fire with fire, as it is to just live in peace.
