Militia members take over federal building

[340six]

1st off 2 good reads on the links to the whole story.
I do feel that they were being pushed off their land.
2nd off I hope how one desires to dress never ends up as a crime. This morning I was dressed in my dads old 1962 OD Field Jacket with the hood {have the quilted liner in} I had the neck unzipped with the hood on my head and blue jeans. I was warm as all get out. It is Mint Condition. serves 2 purposes
Keeps me warm! And two was used by my dad when he served this country! One of the things glad now have now that he is gone.

Back to the subject at hand, when I was much younger and a lot better shape I used to ride off road. Read Dirt Bike Magazine every month, this was in the early 1980's. They would have a few articles about the BLM and land grabs out west. It really had an impact on where the public could go ride, or run dune buggies and three wheelers back in the day. The magazines stance was that the land belonged to the people, not the government. People taxes and the government should work for them. If I remember correctly we are talking about millions of acres of land. I'm sure it has gotten worse with the size of our current government structure. Funny how this has really never gone away?
As for as the "militia" I read today they wanted other "groups" to join. Looks like wrong place wrong time to make a statement, no one else is going to jump in. I my self get tired of government over-reach, I figure sooner or later this would happen. I just pray there is no "shoot out" like Waco. That would be the worst thing that can happen.

Don't know if this is true but worth looking into I guess:

IF true, then the perpetrator should be prosecuted.

That being said, consider the source. The Daily Mail is know more for sensational headlines that cold hard facts. Considering the factually incorrect information in the article and the reports by the family that the "victim" is not mentally competent makes me question the validity of the facts. That is not to say that it shouldn't be investigated, if it hasn't been already.

The media will get tired of covering this story and move on to something else. When the militia quits getting news coverage, they will go home.

I don't think going home is an option for them. It's either gonna be a casket or jail.

I agree 100%.

Sad to say I believe you are right.

I'm not sure but I think that's the same kid that the prosecution used as witness against them at trial. The defense made all kinds of weird claims about he was a twisted up and troubled kid and also about how the prosecution had coached him. The family also said they did not blame the kid for anything he said and still greatly cared about his well being. I have barely scratched the surface in reading up on the original trial, but the whole thing is starting to smell.

That's the same **** the feds fell back on to bolster their position at Waco.

The "fashion police" on this thread crack me up.

The point wasn't his fashion. The point was they have a clown trying to run the show.

I can't believe the Feds haven't put an end to this yet.

They won't. The people are occupying an abandoned building and the town people are mostly on the side of the government as far as wanting them to leave. All the government has to do is wait them out. Now, if they had taken over a government building in the middle of a major city then they might take some sort of action.

You would be better off beating your head against the wall rather than getting some people to use common sense.

Why waste manpower when these idiots will inevitably give up? At least it's keeping the media busy.

I'm sure they want to end this peacefully. I bet they will let them keep it up until they (the "terrorists") give up. What do they care about that building anyways?

Oh yeah, you mean the perfectly sane guy on the compound. I think he also had fully automatic weapons also, I could be wrong though. The government was enforcing the law but made a silly decision to use the force they did with kids in the compound.

I just saw on news reporter claiming that the individuals had "bad intel" and thought that FBI SWAT was about to swarm... things are getting interesting now...
