Have the ex-SEAL's parachuted in to save them yet?

I would love to see a Venn diagram of sovereign citizens, teabaggers and the religious right. Not quite Deliverance level of inbreeding in those groups, but pretty damn close.

I am guessing that it was a redneck style "fortification". Like a group of children building a fort.

These are the kind of people that are planning to vote for a certain political candidate this year.

Scary.

My God, you really are going out on a very long limb here, the federal government IS the biggest source of money that has been spread around in these barren patches of America. Do you read about the various subsidies given to those endeavoring in agriculture? Do you understand that the flow of federal dollars from taxpayers funneled to the local agencies that rely on those dollars are flowing in the rural areas on a very large scale? The Bundy's are freeloaders and you can't defend that can you? Or will you-- like so many defenders of the faith out there--- tell us to worship these fools and their gun toting twisted religious mantras as a proper exercise in patriotism?

They're still waiting. Another call went out this morning for all good sovereign citizens to converge on the county and PEACEFULLY (their emphasis) escort the FBI out of the state. Then they will throw the entire county LE out of office and hold new, REAL elections by the PEOPLE.

I'm sure a groundswell of support has amassed at the county line, but the FBI is forcing the media to keep it a secret.

Now the four remaining holdouts are saying they will not come out unless they have a guarantee by the feds that they will not be arrested and/or charged with anything. But I'm guessing when the snacks and smokes run out they'll be singing a different tune.

These people truly do reside in an alternate universe.

Meant to say, While they may have been armed the man they shot was not armed. Stupid auto predictor.
