should have covered themselves in more of the lube. Would have been a lot harder to catch that way
Following that logic, they should have just stripped naked and done a bunch of drugs. NO ONE wants to catch a drugged up naked guy.

A lot of sketchy reports and misinformation coming out of Oregon. Hard to even lay out the true story at this point....I do know this though....eminent domain is real and used everyday in the US....always ask myself what would be my reaction if I caught someone driving fence post across my property
Eminent domain was not the issue at the Hammond ranch...nobody was driving fence posts on their land.
There are valid issues to discuss in regards to Federal lands and BLM's management of them but the clown shoes operation run by the Bundy bros isn't helping.

I'm not. It would be nice, especially for the children and loved ones who would be left behind, or get caught up in the hostilities I suppose. I hope there is no more loss of life but I'm not sending any prayers out.
If you come to the party armed, talking about fighting and dying for the cause, then don't be surprised or beg for sympathy when someone takes you up on it or calls your bluff.
Yes because after all, providing The People with a violent death is enumerated in the Constitution of the United States for all Americans, if they disagree with the government, right?
FWIW, I disagree with how the protesters went about this and pretty much every other aspect of their display. That doesn't mean the government was in the right and I didn't see the government address their grievances in any meaningful way. It seems like the only way they know how to handle anything these days is with a warrant/subpoena and an armed show of force.
These events aren't created in a vacuum and to be so callous about the government failing to provide adequate redress before going guns hot is disappointing. I only hope you're never on the receiving end.
Nope, not my point. I'm not wishing them dead nor wishing the government would kill them.
I'm simply not sympathizing with them over their fate once they decided to take up arms, seize property and draw lines.
If you take up arms for any cause you should expect someone to take you up on it and you shouldn't act surprised when it happens. If you say you are willing to die for your cause, and you get your wish, I will withhold my shocked face.
That statement is free of a determination of right or wrong on either party's part.
