“Are we talking about BLACK Blacks or Oreo Cookie Uncle Tom Blacks?”
Democrat Plantation Blacks? Or black escaped Democrat Plantation slaves?

Turn it back around on them. Would the federal government have used men armed with machine guns and attack dogs against a black family or black protesters? Not in a million years.

Finally, I cant help but wonder how conservatives would react if these were black farmersor black anyonedefending their land against federal officials. Would Fox News applaud black militiamen aiming their guns at white bureaucrats? What's your point knumnuts? I didn't see a whole lot black people out there helping the Bundy's

Holder would never have let it happen. That's what. Well, that ends the conversation right there.....no further comments needed!

We would be paying them reparations also

I'm not sure why the question is even germane here.
Interestingly, I have only been following this story through online reports and didn't even know -- or care -- about the race of the ranchers and their supporters until this article raised the point.
And yet I was quite certain that a group of independent, principled people in rural Nevada defending themselves against an oppressive Federal government was comprised almost entirely of white people. That's pretty pathetic, isn't it? And it says a hell of a lot more about racial politics in this country than what the author of this article has written.

I can never remember.
Is it Slate or Salon that publishes from an insane asylum?

I thought that was Philadelphia.
When the city blew up some kooks who called themselves “MOVE” — and took out a couple city blocks in the ensuing fire.

It was, I mis-typed. Thanks for the correction.

Maybe you’re thinking of the group MOVE. They were burned out of their Philadelphia home by the police.
To: Alberta's Child
It is germane because a hundred armed feds go after a white rancher who they say owes $1 million while the president parties with one Al Sharpton who owes $1.9 million in back taxes.

You are correct. The government dynamited and burned out people that didn't knuckle under.
I can't buy the government story at face value on that one, after all the lies told on Ruby Ridge, Waco, and Nevada.

California was a test case back in the day. Sometimes commies are right.

What if they were black, lesbian, Latino, environmentalist, vegan, union teachers?

What if they were orange, bloated, red-eyed, drunk, cried all the time and pooped their pants if a militant black lesbian looked at them cross-eyed?
Oh sorry... I thought we were talking about John Boehner.

Ya talking about the Move deal?
When just a few years before, they shot a cop in back of the head killing him and then shot up a bunch of innocent by standers?

did Getty Images really publish a photo with a caption, “good thing we’re white”? or was that added by Slate?
