Well a picture is worth a thousand words, even if you don't like what it says.
And the other member's use of a meme to clarify his point is more relevant to this topic than simply reducing the conversation to personal attacks and rhetorical tricks. It's okay to be wrong sometimes.

I have a question for you...
Why hasn't the federal government publicly come forward with a message that try's to establish a clear line of communication to peacefully resolve this situation?
Because that's the MO used and practised abroad.
You still don't get it... everything you people allow your overlords to do overseas will come back to haunt you.
It's really hard when the average American is as dumb as a box of rocks

The government is perfectly happy to have the focus on the militia. They won't make any moves. These people will all go home with a nice big FBI file, like Mystik has stated several times.

I thought it perfectly captured the contrast. The Oregon "terrorists" are just sitting there. In Baltimore and Ferguson the citizens were rioting. Get back to us when the guys in Oregon start breaking #. So far, it's a simple matter of civil disobedience that the hard left would dearly love to re-frame in order to further push a Black Lives Matter narrative.

That's not what happened in either Waco or Ruby Ridge.

The Branch Davidians and the Weever family were not a militia.

Did you advocate this with any of the Occupy encampments?
Because the only difference right now between Occupy and the Oregon protest is the presence of people exercising their 2nd Amendment rights.

Because the Bundy Bros are a thorn in their side and they'd like nothing more than to take them out?
That's what I think, anyway...
The facts that started s whole thing have been blown out of proportion and is basically because the Fed is out of control. If you push or defy them, they'll get you one way or another and people are sick of it.
The Hammonds didn't commit "arson" in the first place. Their prescribed burns went onto to a bit of Fed land...Now they're in prison for that. Which is crazy because the burns actually raised the property value of the federal land!
This is just insane to me, the entire thing.
