This was so typical of "good ol' boy" in Montana I had to respond. This mentality of "not in my backyard"; talk and write about the positive such as good place to live, PTA, etc; bury your head in the sand and the evil that plagues this country will simply go away must stop! Sounds like the governor to me.
Sure Chinook is a good place to live as are all cities and towns in the country. Problems of Chinook are no different, people are no different, but the new Chinook editor might bring another slant to the readers if their significant other was murdered as a result of illegal activities in the Chinook area.
I feel the writer is sincere, but terribly misguided. Rear a good kid, struggle through life, then bury your young child. Your point of view will be forever changed. Where is the inspiration to youth who are dead, incarcerated, or "living dead" on drugs?
Max, your focus may well be denial. Articles do need to be factual, but the overwhelming answer to, "If you could change something in this country; the answer was "the newspaper" simply meant we want the truth,a steady diet of truth, especially from leadership, law enforcement, and those with big bucks until the real problems of corruption in all areas in our sick society are addressed and resolved. Give us a choice, not rhetoric and denial.
I do not believe you speak for Blaine County, but are a voice in the wilderness that reinforces corruption if only by writing this one article. People are in most part gullible when the message comes from print for profit!
