We can start it off with two positions: 1. This is a free country, and if the Baghwan and his flock have enough people, money, and muscle, then they have the right to take over Antelope, Oregon and run it as they see fit; after all, the majority rules, right? 2. The long-time residents of Antelope have a right to keep their community and its values and standards intact without having a bunch of rich, arrogant, big-city smart-asses and religious freaks over- whelming the town with gobs of money and shady practices (i.e., importing derelicts to get the necessary number of voters to take over in the elections). So who's right?
