MC is a dangerous man. Unless one wants to face him down and see if he's bluffing (a very dangerous move, IMHO, considering that the guy is often armed and thinks himself a high desert Wyatt Earp) then try to talk him out of his "extortion" and move on and make complaints to proper authorities. Based on MC's history over the years his been invulnerable to complaints, but I feel that his bad day is coming.
