I have a different take on the fire issue. There are people here who want to throw these peaceful protesters in jail over their response to an injustice done to people who set a fire on their own property which accidentally crossed an invisible line. The same people who are calling for the protesters lives to be ruined have no problem at all with illegal aliens crossing another invisible line on our southern border. Inconsistent doesn't begin to describe the oddness of that way of thinking.

What are you talking about? There are 300 million guns in a land of 320 million people. that means there's 2 guns for every adult in the land. When has the american government ever had all the guns?

It's called ARSON. They had a trial and they were convicted of ARSON. Arson is illegal. You go to jail for ARSON. Firefighters die fighting fires and they don't want to fight fires that are deliberately set. Plus, at the trial, their own family members said it was deliberately set to cover up POACHING. These guys are not saints. In fact they've been accused of child abuse.

Based on this post, everything you know about the incident is flat wrong. Factually and legally. Also, How do you conclude that the people who consider these Bundy Bohunks idiots want a bunch of people crossing the borders? That's quite a stretch and exposes your...........well, whatever.

I was referring to a single individual who does not own a gun but claims to be free. Also, just because there may be 2 guns for every adult does not mean that every adult has 2 guns or even 1.

The saddest commentary on right wingers is how they think a gun equals freedom. They are slaves to guns. They worship guns like the ancients worshipped idols.

Many of the people who are upset at the peaceful protesters at the wildlife refuge no doubt voted for and support Obama. Obama has issue an executive order legalizing illegal aliens. He did it in November 2014. If you support unconstitutional actions that decriminalize unlawful entry into our country, it tells me that you don't have much respect for the border, which is another invisible line like the one between the Hammond's property and the wildlife preserve.

Apparently arrest warrants have been issued for your armed peace protesters who have taken over a government building and threatened to stay for years unless their demands are met.

Just come right out and say that you hate the 2nd Amendment, and by extension the constitution. Its alright, really. Honesty is liberating. North Korea is a real garden spot I hear.
