No they did not. If this is an example of Cruz’s scholarship... he is way overrated.
Bundy’s ranch stand off was a bad hill to die on.
This cause is a far stronger one. The father and son did their time over something that they should not have had to go to jail for .... and now a judge wants to set aside the spirit of double jeopardy to make them serve an even longer term because of “minimum” sentencing lawsx
But if the “Law” is outside the law, what recourse do you have? We have tyranny in the White House and tyranny in the courts, to say nothing of all the unelected tyrants in the bureaucracy. It’s about time to water that tree Jefferson spoke of.
If it is to have a bloodbath, to what ends?
How does that help?
What will further occupation of the facility accomplish?
The issues will fade into the background and the occupation will become the news item.
Time to stand down, the point has been made.
Either some good will come of this, or not. If not, then there will be another opportunity to engage in conflict.
Cruz, Rubio and Carson rushing to be PC. Two sitting senators and where were they when the Hammonds were being persecuted and railroaded? Now they rush to get their two cents in.
I personally think the Bundy boys are being foolish with their occupation of an empty building 50 miles out in the middle of nowhere. The community does not want their help and neither do the Hammonds. Mike Vanderboegh and Stewart Rhodes have already advised them that this is not the hill to die on.
That being said Cruz and Rubio need to STFU about it as they didn’t care til they thought it was a publicity opportunity. Talk about pandering.
Trump comes out now and says we need Law and Order.
Basically saying the same thing now what Ted CRUZ said concerning the situation in Oregon.
