There's been multiple murders where the black guy wasn't even armed, got shot and the officers were not charged because they felt threatened. The same could be used here and these guys are armed.

You do realize more unarmed whites have been killed by the police than blacks? Liberals aren't pro-non-white, just anti-white and anti-conservative and that's all there is to it.

You're not anti-you but you see other whites as competitors and something to envy and to be brought down. Trust me I have a lot of personal experience with whites who suffer with this mental condition of envy and jealousy of their peers.
I think the FBI would love to go in and just slap them upside the head.
They do not want to make these clowns martyrs. Plain and simple.
No but I do want them humiliated. They can get pretty cold and hungry and the days are short this time of year. Then, when they weep and say they want to go home, they can go to trial, get sentenced to prison, fined, lose their right to own a gun, get put on no-fly lists, be unable to visit other countries and all the other things that come with the actions they have chosen to take.
Right now, Burns, Oregon is 32 degrees with sleet. The temperatures are supposed to drop to 17 degrees tonight and further to 7 degrees by this weekend. This is the most bumbling bunch of morons ever to be produced by the Tea Party.
The smartest way to handle the Oregon situation is to wait for he militia, or whatever you want to call them, to leave. Nothing to be gained by a government assault. The locals do not want them there and it's unlikely they'll stay indefinitely.
They could all simply be pulled over and arrested as they drive back to wherever they came from. However, that might not happen. There is precedent to let them all go, which is basically what happened in Nevada.
Lesson: it's OK to threaten and point guns at police as long as you have friends with guns who are white and appeal to the sympathies of a certain subset of conservative citizens. If you have a fake gun or live in a city or participate in activities those same people claim to dislike it, like drug dealing, then the police are likely to shoot you in the back, ransack your house, and throw grenades in your child's crib.
If this standoff were to end with LEO raiding and killing some/all the militiamen, how would that be any different, from a procedural perspective, than what happened to Eric Garner? Tamir Rice? John Crawford?
The argument that LEO has used to defend their killings, and the argument that Conservative voices accept and repeat, boils down to these three points:
Fact #1: What the victim is doing appears to be illegal.
Fact #2: They are disobeying direct orders from LEO.
Fact #3: They could be dangerous.
Would Conservative media hold these militiamen to the same standards that they hold others to, or would they denounce LEO?
The peaceful protesters are not the ones advocating violence, but you sure are.
Vicki Weaver was murdered by FBI sniper Lon Horiuchi during an election year.
They killed her son Sam too and Vicki was holding a baby when she was murdered by that FBI terrorist.
