This is why George Washington had such a low opinion of militias.
“I am wearied to death all day with a variety of perplexing circumstances, disturbed at the conduct of the militia, whose behavior and want of discipline has done great injury to the other troops, who never had officers, except in a few instances, worth the bread they eat...In confidence I tell you that I never was in such an unhappy, divided state since I was born.”
And Sandy looked like she was about to cry as she whimpered, "We just want to go home."
That ship has sailed.
To have any hope at all of success, revolutionaries need to be smart, and these people weren't. They lived in their echo chamber far too long.
I'm still hoping that no more people die, but I fear these remnants will convince themselves that if they sacrifice themselves, they'll spark a revolution.
We're good people. We never hurt anyone. They should just let us go home. We need some help here. We need the federal government to go away. Shutting off our phones violates our first amendment rights. We are being held hostage by the feds. And Sandy looked like she was about to cry as she whimpered, "We just want to go home."
You just proved my point. Government employment is at best, a zero sum game. Now imagine how much more productive the state could be if these people were employed by the private sector.
Yeah, the wonderful private sector. Sell that land and let 'free enterprise reign' who knows, they might convert that land to a garbage dump, private prison, a mine, or a toxic waste dump. Who knows what wonders the privateers would bring to BLM land! But I can guarantee you that if federal land is sold the one thing that the private sector will NOT do is lease grazing land to ranchers for 10-15% of market value
Don't know about her, but he has warrants out at home.
Fact is, the new American patriot breaks local, state and federal laws. To have warrants is a mark of distinction within the group. Subsisting off of government entitlements for dubious reasons is another act of defiance against the Feds and is encouraged.
What do these militants have in common with gang members? Something pretty surprising - sovereign citizens and posse comitatus - Too Weird for The Wire - Kevin Carey
New video - Fry is losing the original message and rationale - now on about how the FBI should be fixing highways, infastructure, and nuke plants instead of harassing them
"tell these goddamn government idiots to fix all these reactors, fix our infastructure, our roads, our bridges,"
