Speaking as a former Prosecutor, trust me ... they did NOT blink. They just don’t want anyone to die and the “weapons” at their disposal are massive. Trust me. People have NO idea how powerful the Government (even the State government for which I worked) can be and is. The rancher stands zero chance in this battle.

While I’ve made my position on this issue clear, this is just informational and taking no position in this post.

Dead Americans, killed by an Obama government agency, wouldn't help come November.

If you can call this a blink, it was of a political nature.

If a protestor died would you want to be Harry Reid or anyone else involved in this? No amount of massive weapons can stop someone intent on harming you.

I could’ve guessed you were a lawyer. You said “Trust me” twice in the same short paragraph.
