Yup, and it wouldn’t be the first time in history. Stalin massacred the Kulaks.
At least Stalin had a sound reason to do so. Kulaks were interfering with his policies; they were the living proof that the other, capitalist, way of farming exists and is profitable.
But what reason may exist here? Is Obama looking for his own Waco event? It would be another dirty, bloody stain on his reputation. This can start an insurrection. The civil war in Syria, that is still ongoing, got started over an arrest and torture of some kids who were painting anti-government graffiti. Is anyone at least remotely sane in Washington? They are playing with fire.
