Religious fundamentalists settle in the Oklahoma Panhandle
Newcomers in Boise City are prompting fear among some residents while others condemn what they consider a modern-day witch hunt.
Cimarron County Sheriff Leon Apple tells Boise City residents gathered for a July 1 town hall meeting to remain civil. The meeting was held to discuss concerns over a large family associated with the Fundamentalist Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.

BOISE CITY — About 300 people crowded into the banquet hall at the county fairgrounds in this Panhandle town, anxious to talk about the small group of strangers who had moved into their midst.
Men in boots, baseball caps and cowboy hats milled about, while women fanned themselves against the early July heat.
A sign outside the entrance warned: “This is a civil meeting. Anyone disrupting the peace will be escorted out.”
“The whole town’s here,” Jennifer Adee, 33, said to a friend sitting in the folding metal chair next to her.

of the creepiest, most evil and vile people on the planet, Warren Jeffs, "is innocent & has been unjustly imprisoned." That sick, twisted scumbag should be imprisoned just for taking family pets away from children and shooting them alone. What a sick, twisted, perverted, evil, vile fuck. Listening to the tape of him sexually assaulting his 12 year old "bride" made me physically sick. But he and his ilk would just tell me to "keep sweet". Yeah, that would happen, lol.
