    They're not armed criminals. They're ranchers.

    If they were wearing Hell's Angels leathers, it would be just as "intimidating?"

    Well the guy is right, if you're not comfortable being around guns, be somewhere else.

    Carrying their guns is legitimate and lawful. Anyone who carries a gun is likely to defend themselves against aggression, even by the FBI.

    Duh.

    The FBI knew better.

    They're at home, the militia asshole needs to be somewhere else. Yeah...the Hell's angels can be intimidating too...just like the fake soldiers of fortune who are littering America's protected lands. I think it's pretty brave of those local folks to even talk to them. They probably own guns too, but didn't feel the need to arm themselves to contest the invasion of these guys in their homeland

    Bravery wasn't a part of it, because they weren't being threatened.

    Stealing is a crime...unlawful protest with armed occupation is a crime...did they get a permit to protest and gather in a place where they can legally do that? Fuck no....they are commiting crimes

    Defending yourself with guns against the FBI (or the OSP) is definitely not legitimate and lawful. LaVoy knew better, and chose suicide-by-cop.

    Sit in at the dean's office is trespassing. Sorry you can't see it unless it's leftists doing it.

    Those people were arrested, beaten with nightsticks, and even shot.

    That is what civil disobedience is.

    Those aren't mutually exclusive categories.

    They are ranchers and armed criminals.

    You refuse to recognize the threat they have posed those people in their community...I'd say a neighborhood of folks showing up unarmed to defuse the situation required bravery..

    The FBI set up a trap, planned for it, and shot the man. It wasn't necessary.

    The entire thing was unnecessary. Those militia dipshits didn't need to come to Oregon in the first place.

    So you're now going to try to make the case that this government wilderness is where people live?

    yes...I live surrounded by BLM land and guess what...other people live out here too....in their case...an entire Paiute tribe has concerns about their artifacts and burial grounds but I guess you like the cows more ...

    Denial doesn't change the facts.

    The Paiute reps politely told them they have to leave....but I guess they don't have the same rights as the cowboys

    Those silly freedom riders didn't need to go around the South.

    You say the most idiotic things sometimes.

    It's a free country.
