tarmac... the idea of the book was that the freestaters that wanted wyoming split from the effete east coasters and moved into strategic counties in wyoming... they took over the county offices... (if you can't live in a free country then a free state is the next best thing... if you can't live in a free state then a free county is the...etc.)
they take over state legislature by continueing to take counties and finaly take the main offices in the state... the book presumes that the movement will snowball in the state.
At the point that the government is all libertarian (or a form of) they start making their own laws... not suceeding but simply challenging the feds by making a lot of federal laws null and void based on constitutional principles... Most if not all the new people are hard working and or independent financialy and the laws (and weather) discourage socialists and losers from moving in.
they get rid of all the federal gun control acts. molon labe means... "come and get em".
