I can’t follow the logic in this one. Does anyone know what the FACTS are? I can’t believe CWII kicks off for something this stupid.
What has happened to the Hammonds is not stupid, it is scary. What the Bundys and their supporters are doing in response is stupid. By the time this gets done being blown out of proportion, nobody will remember that the Hammonds are sitting in prison for inordinately long sentences for the supposed crime they committed.
The two Hammonds are ranchers (ages 74, 46) in Oregon who are going back to jail Monday after serving time already for a federal arson conviction related to their setting ‘backfires’ to protect their property from brushfires.
Federal land ended up getting burned so they already went to jail, now they are being forced back, talk of them being judicially labeled as terrorists causing their return to jail for lighting the fires to protect their property from brushfires.
The Hammonds are willing to go to jail, there was a peaceful rally Saturday in support of them with hundreds on the scene.
But now some 100 folks with members of the Bundy family involved have taken action to occupy the building at the wildlife preserve (federal land) in a protest action-’civil disobedience’.
They say they don’t want violence, but will defend from attack.
“I can’t believe CWII kicks off for something this stupid.”
Lexington and Bunker Hill started our Revolution.
Fort Sumter started The War Between The States.
Archduke Ferdinand’s assassination started WWI.
It doesn’t take much to start a war. The hard part is ending it.
I believe the Bundy’s have a legitimate complaint.
But people gotta realize Oregon was Californicated decades ago. There are leftist judges and it goes without saying leftist media.
The media is trying to hype this.
I have not found any writings about these people being armed, holding hostages, destroying buildings or trespassing. It’s a simple protest.
If BLM can get by with this without starting CWII, then this should not start it either.
If CWII starts over something this simple, then you cannot blame the Bundy’s, you gotta blame the MSM and all the people that react to what they print.
The downside is how the regime may react. Even if there are no guns present, it can still be used as an excuse to confiscate guns. Now that is seriousness provoked by the regime.
When war starts, the first casualty is truth.
