I don’t disagree. Cutting them off from the rest of the world would be the simple solution. Again, provided they are not pulling a David Koresh/Waco.
What these assholes don’t seem to understand is that it is our land. Not their land.
Best comment on this I have seen: if they were black preteens with pellet guns they’d be dead already.
Cite? I think that they have been grazing cattle on government land for a long time. And not paying the rights to do so. It does take money to protect these lands, and the Bundys have ignored it.
I was just referring to a previous post. They claim the government has illegally seized land from ranchers even though the refuge was established in the 1930s.
So I insist my government takes action to remove unlawful occupiers from my property.
Doing this while “armed” is a Darwin list move. All it’s going to take is one of them firing one shot at the feds and this may go down as another Ruby Ridge.
I believe this is the building they took over:
43.265372, -118.844314
Well a retarded ass version of Ruby Ridge at least.
What gets me is that these people are delusional and misinformed by RW media, and because of that misinformation, they build a self-aggrandizing narrative where they are knights in shining armor, ready to fight the evil empire.
Fuck them all. Their inept stupidity is making the nation worse. Hopefully one of those weekend warriors will burn the place down because they don’t know how to use lanterns.
Kinda works for “left wing” shit as well.
Examples of armed twats on the LW supporting thieves like Bundy by raiding a federal instigation?
Uhhh…many BLM (not the gubment version) movements aka riots…
Armed? Cite?
I have the right to defend myself, and that guy scares me.
You think a riot is the same thing as a premeditated armed takeover of a federal building?
Seriously. If these guys weren’t white as rice they’d be dead by now.
That’s just silly. Do you know how long it takes to get tanks and armored fighting vehicles to a remote spot?
I should like to show up there in a couple of weeks with a van packed full of food and needed supplies and then say, “oh, you are the ass berries, sorry,” and leave.
Yeah. I certainly don’t support riots and I don’t even support demonstrations that interfere with the lives of innocent people, but they’re both a far cry from actual armed rebellion against the U.S. government.
I agree. And taken a step further, there is a factual problem with the way police treat blacks. Bundy, however, just wants to steal access to grass because he’d rather not pay.
Even if the actions were equal, which they obviously are not, Bundy’s group is throwing a tantrum because they want to steal things.
