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

For nearly nine months, Tenacious Unicorn Ranch, a safe haven for trans and queer Coloradans, faced violent threats from right-wing extremists. Until, that is, they turned to their local anarchists for help.

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

6. Maybe, one of these days . . .

. . . these rightwingnutters will wake up and realize the Second Amendment applies to everyone, not just to them.

But probably not . . . they aren't that smart.
