    So the government needs to investigate the government to see if the government did anything wrong?

    Exactly my point! The government investigated the government and ruled the government didn't do anything wrong. <roll eyes>

    Geez, since you are apparently going to continue playing dumb in this thread let me explain. The people aren't anti-gun liberals or anything but considering that a group of armed people from Nevada have taken over federal property in your hometown, it isn't exactly a good thing.

    Why would you call them morons?

    Because they held the "black lives matter" people to the same set of standards the liberals are holding these people?

    I love how you speak of "Government" like it's some singular entity. Like there is one big government barbecue every 4th of July where they get together and plot how to make life miserable for entitled crybaby ranchers.

    You don't even need to take up arms to be slaughtered by the government gone amock when they "need" your land, just resist like the Cherokee Indians in 1830.

    "I have a pen and a phone".
    All the emperor on the hill has to do is give the federal land back to local control.
    He has a pen and a phone. He could probably do it from the golf course. Maybe not, I believe his handicap is top secret - wouldn't want that to get out.

    I can't speak for or against the "law breakers" but they will be punished in due time, their names will be turned over to the IRS (oops does that still happen anymore?).

    Is there like an official Liberal spokesperson that has decided these people should be named terrorist and that will be the official position of all liberals everywhere. I've read plenty of liberal positions that find the situation too comical to even label them terrorists.

    Maybe, call me crazy, some people can actually decide what to call them on their own.

    Because labeling Ferguson, Baltimore or Oregon terrorism is stupid.

    OK this has turned into political satire...

    Actually that's good.

    But let's hope and pray no citizens get hurt (Private or governmental).

    Not labeling anything, I'm just saying we should hold everyone to the same standards. What's the use of having standards if some are exempt?

    You'd have to ask the people in Oregon.

    I'm not playing the word salad game Poncho. I don't care if you are satisfied with my answer or not.

    Maybe some of them want to visit the refuge center in their county, the one that has been taken over by armed people from Nevada who say they are willing to "kill or be killed."
