Although I still think his bird sanctuary occupation stunt should've landed him in prison, he's fairly consistent. So - respect for upholding a principled stance. Now, where are all the other 2A enthusiasts supposedly worried about government overreach?

Of course he did. He's anti government and probably borderline anarchist. No surprise at all.

Still, he isnt thinking it through very well. The BLM flavor of anarchist wants to tear it all down, so they can install their own type of state.


The anarcho syndicalists need to be ignored, or fought. Not supported.

In regards to policing, I have never heard an anarchist (of any flavor)present a logical response in how to deal with violent crime. Never.

OK. We will start with any/all benefits you receive from the state. I bet you can voluntarily defund those.

When Trump sent in the Feds to crackdown on civil unrest in the streets, he inevitably created an alliance between the anti-government militias and the BLM protesters.

Anyone with half a brain could have seen this coming.

Where is he getting his advice???

At the most extreme, there isn't much difference between left and right. That makes temporary marriages of convenience very easy, as any action gives both sides something they want.

And it's not hard to be a religious extremist and an anarchist at the same time. The two don't conflict with each other when out on the fringe; it's only in the middle, where more beliefs tend to muddle things up.

The extremists on both sides also keep their beliefs simpler. They don't think as much as they act.

The pundits on TV, where Trump gets all his info from are all thought and no action. So the pundits get muddled up in the degrees of thought and Trump picks up bits and pieces that get him muddled too.

If any of them actually went out to the streets during a demonstration as just an observer, with no cameras or microphones, they would learn a lot.

Come on, you know that will never happen. It is always about defunding the state for other people, not them and what they benefit off of.

He supports BLM, even after that scuffle he got into with them?

I have to wonder where are all those militia groups that had it in for the government at the Bundy Ranch, where were they when the government sent in troops to Portland.
