They have no tolerance of any culture, no matter how rooted in history and society it is, that falls the slightest outside their narrow views and interests. These intolerant, narrow minded bigots have used every twisted governmental device to deprive their fellow Americans of their civil rights. They have for all intents and purposes destroyed this celebration of history and culture in Marshfield. Act 250 and local zoning laws have been twisted in terrifying ways that should send chills down the back of anyone in any club, theater group or non profit organization. If the prescidents stand, building permits and property taxation will hit all theater backdrops, dunking booths, and displays of any kind that involve donations, tickets or fees.
Cowboy shoots are a great family activity involving practice and skill.
Antique and reproduction guns are used with very light powder loads to hit stationary and moveable targets in various scenarios. Many folks really get into the historical and acting part of it with historically accurate costumes, guns and very convincing acting. Others are into the competition part, trying for high scores relating to time and accuracy. Cowboy shoots could be a welcome addition to the income of a depressed area such as the Northeast Kingdom. When you consider the lodging and dining alone, not to mention local shopping that a group of folks with discretionary income could bring to the area, you would think they would be welcomed with open arms.
