Wonder what would have happened if a single person had opened fire?

Law enforcement officers have shot civilians, armed and unarmed, for less. Had Bundy's people fired on the BLM agents then wouldn't the BLM agents been justified as firing back? Heck, these days if Bundy's people made any move that might conceivably be interpreted as threatening then the law enforcement agents would have been justified in shooting back.

Yes. I get that. My point is that it was akin to Little Big Horn.

If you get my drift...
