It appears that the Feds were being "crazy like a fox" to allow these guys to stew a lot longer than I would expect them to tolerate some armed trespassers barging in and taking over a federal facility.

You did not post the true web address.

Bye Bye Troll

From your post:

“But I’m not sorry that a bloodbath was avoided, even at some damage to the majesty of the law. And while I can’t imagine that Barack Obama or Attorney General Loretta Lynch will ever claim - or get - the credit for how deftly the current confrontation was managed, they amply deserve it.”

You’re one sick dude.

The officers had arrest warrants charging several of the occupants of the car with "conspiracy to impede or injure an officer," a less serious charge than "seditious conspiracy" but still good for up to six years.

Well, it seems the Feds did eventually learn something 20+ years on since the Waco Massacre. Get them (i.e., Koresh) on a trip into town instead of playing Cowboy Nazi like the ATF (IIRC) storming the compound (got their asses handed to them) when they could have waited. What ATFs cowboy action got us eventually was 82 people killed, 22 of them children at the hands of Janet Reno (Bill/Hillary) and the FBI.

the majesty of the law.

No sane person would utter the phase and then in the next breath bring up barky and lynch as it's prime exemplars. The author needs a butterfly net.

A recent story focused on the activities of the Hammonds, whose five-prison sentences this crew was protesting, made it appear that the Hammonds got no more than they deserved after a long career of not only ignoring the law but threatening violence against those who were trying to carry it out.

So you aren't just a blog pimp, but you're clueless, too.

The federal judge at the trial that originally sentenced them thought the TERRORIST charge for accidentally burning some acreage in a brushfire was bogus.

But I guess things like trials, juries and judges just don't mean anything to some people.

Weren’t they going to a public meeting in neighboring Grant County Oregon? The sheriff of that county, Sheriff Glen Palmer, has worked to defuse the situation.

Clinton Foundation took massive payoffs, promised Hammond Ranch & other publicly owned lands to the Russians

To get onto The Nut-job Conspiracy Theory Ping List you must threaten to report me to the Mods if I don't add you to the list...

"We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded." Barack Hussein Obama, 7/2/2008
They don't call it a Civil Defense force, that would imply we need (or perhaps that we deserve) defense. The official name is National Civilian Community Corps.

I think of it as the NatCCC, or more simply, as the NatCs...

Deaar troll,

My only regret is that you, yourself, were not killed.

Perhaps someday.

I will rejoice.

Hey, you going to reply to your thread, or are you going to run away?
Looks like you chose “run away”.
