As I wrote in another thread, the federal government needs to use whatever force necessary to protect public property, arrest these militia, jail them, convict them, and send them to prison. As an American, a veteran, I say zero tolerance to inciting rebellion and taking up arms against the US. These thugs are no better than the people rioting in Baltimore, occupying Wall Street, etc. They are definitely not someone any red-blooded American conservative should be supporting.

Yeah, I hated the Founding Fathers, too.

Yay for you - the Founders were nothing but criminals and should have been taken down early in the game...

You do know that protestors occupying a gov building over claimed infringement of rights has been held to be protected freedom of speech under the 1st?

That’s arguably all this is, a protest by occupiers engaged in civil disobedience- likely protected free speech.

Thank you for your service, but I couldn't disagree more with your position. Have you not been paying attention to the reckless, lawless, and destructive imperialism and soft tyranny that the current regime in Washington D.C. has imposed on these ranchers, and the rest of the U.S. citizenry for that matter, over the past seven years? The checks-and-balances system built into the three branches of our federal government have been corrupted and destroyed by these thugs and as a result our individual liberties are clearly endangered. So here, read what it says We the People can do about it in Declaration of Independence:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness.
