It's propaganda alright, but it does expose the viewpoint of our current administration:

Soper has been in the middle of all of it. He says he has tried to be a more moderate voice in a movement best known for its hotheads. He spent a month living in his RV at Burns, trying to talk the occupiers into standing down.

Soper considers Finicum’s death “murder.”

That kind of talk is “a big deal,” said Stephanie Douglas, who retired in 2013 as the FBI’s top official overseeing foreign and domestic counterterrorism programs. “Free speech doesn’t make you a terrorist just because you disagree with the government. But if you start espousing violence and radicalizing your own people toward a violent act, the federal government is going to take notice.”

Funny, I don't recall anyone applying that standard to discussions about Trayvon Martin, or Michael Brown.

For Ms. Douglas saying you consider someone's death who was killed in a shootout a "murder" is unacceptable, but apparently it isn't unacceptable if the person killed was a member of a group that usually votes Democratic - even if it leads to rioting and actual violence.

But I do see some evidence that the government is preparing to “fight the people”.

How many people have been killed by the Tea Party in the last 20 years?

How many people have been killed by black street gangs?

The folks at the Washington Post need to take a deep breath and get real..

What they need to do is take a deep breath and shutter their offices.

They, just like the government, are guilty of dereliction. The Media have sh!t all over the first amendment and are now as evil as their leftist masters.

And they both take money from our pockets to grow stronger and fight us harder.

Bezos ought to watch his ass.

He should have caught a clue when the vast majority of Amazon Prime members refused his offer to subscribe to the Washington Post for a dollar a year.

People that WORK use Amazon, and those people will BOYCOTT and destroy it if he doesn’t reign in his faggot platoon.

I’m not aware of any serious effort by citizens to somehow “fight the government”.

But I do see some evidence that the government is preparing to “fight the people”.

Yep - hence the push about how many "home-grown terrorists/subversives" they claim to be noticing - they need to create an enemy so they can "justify" crushing us.

Even after Clinton (Who was quietly dragged out of the white house - I’ve heard reports from people who were there those few months) Obama will be 10 times worse.

I would like to know more about that. Any links about it?

The Idaho boys rolled over and peed themselves in Oregon. Not very effective.

They are preparing for open oppression of conservatives. Think Germany 1932.

Body shots Colt XSE 1911

Head (throat) shots Colt Lightweight Commander 1911

Both in .45

At that particular range in order to perform head shots you have to hang your target upside down to avoid damaging the target carrier with errant shots.

Not really, just reports like the ones where they stole furniture and artwork from the white house on the way out.

Silverware, glasses, plates, etc. Some of the items weren’t returned until some time into Obama’s term.

Whenever a president leaves office the white house staff almost doubles. This is not necessarily because of the president and first lady themselves, but because of everyone else on the staff who is about to lose their jobs.

Youll never get the President alone at a bar to threaten him for information, but you will get the head of housekeeping at a bar and make a threat for them to bug the white house or something.

I heard that Hillary had a freak out about her office not being accessible or not being moved for her and she broke glass and threw stuff. Then she sent a bill for the furniture.

Politically the left always do crap like propose 3rd terms with their party people.

My mother worked at the white house during the 60s and would tell about presidents peeing in rooms and crap like that. Parties and the like. Bill pees himself when he gets high and god only knows what Roger is capable of.

My mom also says that the nights of elections they load a truck at the dock and if the election was lost the truck would leave. If they won the truck was unpacked again. That’s been going on forever.
