What I saw looked like someone reacting to pain - I think he was shot from the front and reflex reached down. It was an awkward reach, not something like someone reaching for a weapon.

Just don’t know.

I still don’t understand why the government is acting so aggressively to this situation. There are many other situations where it doesn’t escalate like this.

"So aggressively"?

I've never heard of someone seizing public property and being allowed to hold it for three weeks and also go on media appearances while they do it before.

This was amazingly lenient - and that's the way it is generally perceived by the public.

If Finicum hadn't tried to blow a traffic stop, he'd be making bail arrangements today.

Think Waco & Ruby Ridge.

There is nothing that anyone can trust with the Obama administration.

Safe passage was a lure to get them out & them ambush them, IMO.
