For nearly half a decade, Lois Laroe has been victimized by her neighbor, Michigan DOC Training Officer Casey Wagner.
I introduced you to Lois here, but there is so much more to the story than meets the eye.
She’s an elderly victim of harassment, now suffering from permanent hearing loss and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.
Warning: This LOUD Audio is What Lois is Living Through.
Hunters are recommended to have both hearing and eye protection. I would hazard a guess that Casey is wearing ear protection through this.
As a neighbor, Lois gets zero warning, and she should not have to live her life in ear protection for Casey to exercise his right to bear arms.
Exercising your rights does not allow you to infringe upon the rights of others.
The People in “Power” Refuse to Help
The Ionia County Sheriff and Prosecutor, even Representative Gina Johnsen, have abandoned her in the fight, claiming there is nothing they can do.
The insurance and mortgage companies have been largely useless in repairing the damage to her home, seemingly due to political connections.
In the coming weeks, there will be a lot to unpack. It’s a complicated web of political favors and “good ole boys” where bad neighbors are allowed to be bad neighbors if their parents are politically connected and can excuse their child’s caveman-esque lack of manners and civility all while crying about protecting “gun rights.”
It has nothing to do about gun rights; it has everything to do with being a responsible gun owner rather than an overgrown bully, setting off dangerous, unregulated explosives and terrorizing the people (and livestock) around you.
It’s about pollution; noise and environmental.
It’s about abusing people with documented disabilities.
It’s about how Ionia County and State Officials are letting it happen.
And it’s about following the campaign money to find out why it’s all being excused.
Ask yourself this: what would you do if the adult equivalent of Sid from Toy Story lived next door?
In the meantime, I am sharing Lois’ GoFundMe page, and urging you to help. Please support Lois here.
