Property tax in general is badly in need of reform. It amounts to either “rent” paid to the government, or a legal version of a mob shakedown.

In any event, the Judge missed a trick when he didn’t tie in the massive overreaction by the FLEAs/LEOs in the aftermath of the Boston bombing: patrolling the streets in armored HMMWVs, driving people from their homes at gunpoint, aiming weapons at anyone looking at them, generally looking foolish by running through peoples’ backyards all dressed up in their soldier costumes pretending to be hard-core “operators”.

What with facial recognition technology,
I’m wondering if the feds will go after those patriots who came to stand tall with Bundy and family???
Ya know the bastards filmed each and every one who was there including their vehicle tag numbers.

” If regime stormtroopers did attempt a raid it would end badly for both sides,”

Nice rant but why do people keep saying this? It may be a subconscious wish to be where we were as a nation 50 yrs ago.

"...the use of heavily armed men and militaristic tactics are not necessary when all the feds had to do was put a lien on Cliven Bundy's property for the unpaid taxes."

But what would we do with all the bullets we bought?!

Let’s review the bidding, can we?

Two democratic administrations about a decade apart. Two cases of massive overreaction to relatively minor legal issues.

Waco - could have been prevented by a simple arrest in town. Instead a massive military based response with a totally unnecessary body count.

Bundy - could have been prevented in a simple court case followed by an arrest. Instead a massive para-military operation that isn’t over yet.

Wonder how much of an overlap the two casts of characters have?

using militaristic tactics that are not necessary in modern society in order to enforce

It seems to me, the more civilized we have gotten the more the government and police have seen fit to arm themselves superior to the citizens. When this country was wild and uncivilized, the people were usually better armed than even the military. Starting at the time of the revolution. The Kentucky long rifle was superior to the brown Bess musket. On the frontier the repeating Spencer and the Henry rifles were in the hands of many pioneers before the army had repeating arms as standard issue. Perhaps the only exception would be the Texas Rangers who were equipped with the Patterson revolver very soon after it was on the market.

Now we the people are supposed to register anything that is “black and scary” and the police use armored cars, body armor, etc. as standard issue.
