That is the issue. He refused to follow the laws about how you can develop property.

Yeah if it wasn't zoned.

Nobody is trying to stop people from shooting guns on their property.

No it has nothing to do with views. You don't know the area if you think this is an anti gun type of town. It is 100% because he didn't get the zoning permits required.

I run an industrial business near by Pawlet. I have the state and town up my ass about any building activities I do. The process to get quotes AND permits in a way that actually allows a contractor to execute a project is a massive pain in the ass. That said, I follow the laws because they are very straight forward.

It takes a person with a victim mentality have see the laws laid out and think "nope I will just not follow the laws and I don't expect to experience any consequences."

Sharing Vermont orgs to support is very much Vermont-specific. Also, we do have LGBTQ+ folks in Vermont and yeah, this applies to them and their loved ones. If you don’t care to see it you can scroll on by.

Maybe there’s a different reason this post triggers you folks? Might want to reflect on that.

It looks like you shared an AMP link. These should load faster, but AMP is controversial because of concerns over privacy and the Open Web. Fully cached AMP pages (like the one you shared), are especially problematic.

Maybe check out the canonical page instead: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/09/world/australia/scooter.html

Because riding the current trend, that has nothing to do with Vermont in order to get money, is bullshit.

Pride Center, is great. I don't know anything about other organization, so can't speak to that, but this isn't Vermont related.

I also understand localizing news, but again, nothing to do with Vermont.

Here's a story about a guy and a scooter, we should petition to get more scooters in Vermont! Localizing something unrelated to Vermont and still doesn't belong here.

The point isn't harry potter, the point is "here are local programs you can donate to". Riding a current trend for exposure of a good cause seems fine to me. Taking issue with it feels more like trying to undermine the sentiment rather than actually being upset about harry potter not being a Vermonter.

No one’s arguing the legality of setting up a meth lab or SA on your property. Laws absolutely exist for these reasons.

However I think it’s a bit of an overstep to dictate what structures and activities they can do on their property. Sure he should get permits, but if Daniel Banyai was removed from situation and the members opened a sporting club and registered the property as it’s clubhouse would the outrage still be the same? Zoning laws aside they’re completely in their right to discharge firearms and larp as a militia member on their property. Even if they act like complete dicks.

It comes down to the town and the people trying to dictate what a private citizen does on their personal property because they disagree with him and his views.
