Lawsuits are nice but I sense a desire not to be put in jail and denied their rights to vote and own firearms based on my viewing of the Anderson’s video I mentioned in an earlier post.
A lot of people on the outside who claimed to be their friends don’t want any armed response to the area to support the people at “Camp Finicum”.
I agree with the letter of the idea but not the spirit.
These people were left under the impression they would have armed backup in a pinch and when the pinch came the backup didn’t come probably because the Pacific Patriots Network group was ‘compromised’ as David Fry put it in his video.
He says FBI, I think it could be the Republican Party fronting to keep the lid on anything politically embarrassing like violence from the militia side and to organize a group of people who will vote GOP in local, state and federal elections.
Unarmed people should get out there in front of the cameras with all the risks involved, perhaps. If the FBI and OSP go rough on them, its their fault.
I feel for them. I really do.
But, if an operation hasn’t gone off the way you’d planned it, then there is no shame in calling it off. In fact, it’s better to call it off. A retreat is not always a bad thing. It gives time to reconstitute, reconsider, and plan for a better day.
