Hyperbole doesn’t become you. I’m a FReeper because I believe in our cause. I’m a thinker because I want to see it succeed. Emoting is the realm of liberalism. Contemplation of conservatism. Which do you choose?
Would it be wrong, not just in this case, not just with Cliven Bundy, but in general, to gather as many victims of government abuse as possible? Would it hurt our cause to gather a large cross section of people who are harmed by government?
If Cliven Bundy (kook or not) were one of ten thousand victims wouldn’t it promote our cause even better? Wouldn’t it be great to have other rural victims and mix them with suburban victims and then urban victims of government abuse? Wouldn’t it just help solidify in the minds of the American voters that the problem is government?
We have a beautiful opportunity to win big this fall. Why not gather more examples and not just one? This isn’t an isolated case is it?

Not applicable at all because we have representation. Do you think the majority of Americans will vote to allow a rancher to push cows onto public land without paying for the right? Bundy fattens the cows without paying for the graze for his own profit.
If there was another rancher willing to pay the grazing rights and follow the law - why should he not have the opportunity because Bundy decided he did not want to pay? The other guy would pay the market value - Bundy did not.
