SNIPPET: "Seems the FBI was concerned about threats - which included a pledge to turn a tax protest into a blood bath - allegedly made by a Twitter user identified as CitizenQuasar. The FBI arrested Daniel Knight Hayden, 52.

Hayden’s penultimate tweet at 12:49 AM on April 15 returned to the subject of his martyrdom. “Locked AND loaded for the Oklahoma State Capitol. Let’s see what happens.”

The FBI arrested (.pdf) him at his home later that day, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Oklahoma City, which otherwise declined to comment on the case."

We’re not the ones calling the officers pigs.

I have a great appreciation for police even when I dissagree with the law. Unfortunately I've found that FR has a small group who seem determined to incite the police into taking action. They should be encouraged to stay home during the next round of tea parties.

It's easier to gain allies among police when you don't force them to wear riot gear. LEOs have families too and they'll always side with the crowd that isn't a threat to theirs.
