I agree but look how liberals are already portraying the issue:

“What is new is the mostly out of state extremist right wing push to use this as a flashpoint for some kind of violent revolution. Excellent diaries have already been written about how everyone on Fox News and the vaguely traitorous Tea fringes have been calling for open revolution to protect this man from the tyranny of paying his bills. I have been “discussing” this with a lot of them on the Facebook pages of several of our local news stations for days now. (Yes, I know, but someone had to present the view that stealing is bad.) They scare me, frankly. They have no idea of history or law or the actual facts of the case, and they don’t care. They were told to be outraged, and they are. They’re streaming into the state armed and dangerous and with an extremely tenuous grip on reality, looking for trouble. I fear that they will find it.”

Read the entire piece but I warn you it will make you angry and sick!

Well I got to the first sentence in the second paragraph to see this individual doesn't have the facts, or is eliminating those known in order to frame their rant to suite their ideology. But what is typical in liberal/progressive thought was when they began saying the "rules" don't apply to them. LOLOL....where have we seen and heard that before! Didn't make me mad or sick at all...I've grown accustomed to their mindless chatter. Still, it is another good example of the way their mind works.

Thanks for alerting me to the other side’s perspective.
However, here’s the major difference between the supporters of the tyrants and those fighting for freedom. The Bundys’ are fighting for legitimate property rights that very directly affect them. Millions of people identify with their struggle personally. Many of us have had to deal with hated 3-4 letter government agencies such as the IRS. We understand the feelings of violation, hopelessness and desperation. This has engendered a profound contempt and an intense loathing for these corrupt agents.
The authoritarian Leftists might express their disapproval with their usual vile language, but that’s all sound and fury. These people are like spoiled children, and many if not most of them have received benefits without having earned them. After the drama is over, they can go back to watching their favorite stupid TV show. In a real struggle, I doubt that these metrosexual Lefties will be of any use to their totalitarian Leftist masters.
The producers, like the Bundys’ have earned their keep. They have played by the rules and will not live on their knees. Whether they win or lose, the seeds of contempt for the Federal tyranny will be sown again, and the tree of liberty will rise. This is what the animating contest of liberty is all about.
