Unfortunately, the same thing can be said for the MSM news. Far too often when I read an article about “Occupy something”, Black Lives Matter and other “reporting” it is almost impossible to understand without a street slang translator.
The underlying conflict between the Bureaucratic Fed Gov Regulators of “public lands” in the West and the citizens is a real problem.
I lived just a few miles from the epicenter of the original Sagebrush Rebellion. Was interesting how that played out. Many of the Locals forced the Fed Regulators to live by the local government Laws. Something they did not think they were subject to. That was long ago.
Half the problem with the conservative movement in general, and the Patriot movement in particular, is ineffective communication. Referring that article to someone not already simpathetic as part of a debate will only reinforce their opinion that these guys are just a bunch of dumb hicks who don’t even know the difference between “steel” and “steal”.
Defending the inability to communicate effectively, or worse being proud of it, does a disservice to the cause.
Spelling and grammar errors are common and are commonly ignored in forums like this one. It is all well and good carrying on a fast conversation with someone who already agrees, like me. Not so much if you are trying to present our case to someone who gets all their information from MSNBC and NPR and thinks they are smart because they agree with all the smart people on TV.
This article is fine fodder for those of us who side with the citizens against the feds(Yes. I read the whole thing and watched the videos too) and we are all willing to overlook the silly mistakes because we agree with their position. As a tool for convincing those inclined to support the government position, however, it is worse than useless.
