Why would they storm a federal courthouse when this was a state court case? Publicity?

"We shall fight?" I don't think they wrote their own slogan.

If it would serve to awaken people to the fact we are on the verge of a social war with these people, then storming the courthouse and dragging out naked judges and other court personnel would be a small price to pay.

I don’t know why they would storm a courthouse at all. No flatscreens, Air Jordans or Heinekens to be had there.

The more they are ignored, the quicker they’ll get bored and go home.
