The Range was There First


I am a member of Peacemaker and a resident of WV. In this morning’s Martinsburg Journal “Newspaper” this story was printed. Now fact number 1 according to the “newspaper” the range has been open since 2010. #2,The Goldstein’s bought their property in 2011. #3 The complaint wasn’t filed until August 2015. [More]
And here it is:
According to a Peacemakers supporter, the Goldsteins bought their Virginia property in December 2011, after the Peacemakers gun range had been established. The Goldsteins didn’t file a complaint until September 2015.
That means they either didn't do due diligence -- or they did and knew exactly what they were doing.
And it looks like their Insurance Company is claiming they're on their own.

UPDATE: The newspaper's information appears inaccurate. I was able to track property tax records online to 2010, which appears to be as far back as the Frederick County Treasurer's website goes.

Here's the filing --note you may have to try a few times, as it's on my One Drive account and multiple people trying to access it may crash it.

IANAL, but this wouldn't pass the smell test for an injunction to me. It could have standing if both properties were purchased or the gun range opened for business the same quarter as the home purchase, but really, living in the country incurs certain smells and sounds.

According to the actual filing, the Goldsteins bought their property in 1976. There is a disconnect somewhere...

Right you are, and that's the problem when info comes in-- I just now received a copy of the filing and am seeing what I need to do to embed it in my AmmoLand piece.
