Happening now: Bundy breaking down fence on refuge #BundyTeaParty

[yuiyoshida]

1. I totally agree...

why is the DOJ doing nothing?

[Wellstone ruled]

2. Yep,checked the wind and now I can make a Statement.

Kinda couple weeks late pal.

[Warpy]

3. Even here in the wild west, where small timers often have their cows

"break through the fence" to graze illegally on BLM land, there is little support for these gun toting, beer gutted, snuff juice dribbling yahoos. It's a game around here, breaking even between paying fines and paying for grazing rights. Bundy turned it into big business and became a multimillionaire by cheating the US taxpayer. Every person here who flouts the law from time to time will clap and cheer when the government grows a fucking backbone and takes these assholes down hard.

I guess the DOJ considers the growing pot legalization movement and activism among Raging Grannies to be a bigger threat to the government than extreme right wingers who want to rob the American people of land owned in common to recreate some sort of John Wayne open range scenario.

4. It's as though we have no DOJ...

I can't figure out what Obama's policy is...

[Cassiopeia]

5. Maybe we should mail them some pot.

We would probably see some rapid action finally.

[haikugal]

9. Yes, that would do it. Fucking disgraceful!

[libodem]

6. Boom

Seems like everyone has had a belly full of this lawlees escapade. It's total bullshi by now.

Make them peaceully surrender or tear gas them and then get them with a tranquilizer dart. Then throw the book at them.

[longship]

8. I like the tranquilizer dart idea.

Down they go; they wake up in a jail cell. It's perfect. No muss, no fuss. No greasy pans to clean.

[libodem]

11. Animal control

[longship]

12. Yup. And those animal control guys are really good with those dart guns.

Plus, they are used to having to work undetected. The dart guns don't even make much noise, so those Y'all qaedas won't know which way to point their gunses. Tranq dart snipers in the trees. Half of the idiots will be down before they realize something is happening. Fed Marshalls on the perimeter to sweep up; disarm and cuff em. Easy peasy.

[libodem]

13. Sounds like a plan

[longship]

7. Love Peter DeFazio!

Happy to R&

[classof56]

14. I love, him, support him and wish like crazy I lived in his district.

Stuck over here East of the Cascades in Greg Walden country. Great job, Peter--as always! Definite K&R from a long-time progressive Oregonian.

Oregon: She Flies With Her Own Wings. Now if those Bundy idiots would only fly south and get the heck outa our state!

10. Obama seems afraid to confront right wingers.

[L. Coyote]

17. I call Bullshit! Don't blame Obama, that is what the terrorists want you to do.

The last Patriot standoff ended without a shot fired and everyone convicted and jailed. Are you blaming Obama for that success?

[jalan48]

18. You don't mean the Cliven Bundy fiasco that's still going on in Nevada do you?

How is Obama dealing with this current takeover of a federal piece of property? What has his administration said about it? Why are the "protesters" free to come and go? Why is the power still on to the buildings? The bullshit is the fact that these extreme right wingers are being allowed to break the law with zero repercussions. What's the plan?

[Duckfan]

15. Proud I helped get Pete elected in 1988

He takes no crap from no one.

[Thespian2]

16. Let's see, now...

Philadelphia...blacks holed up in house...government solution?...drop a bomb from helicopter onto house...

Harney County...white assholes holed up in government building...government solution?...waiting for an answer...

19. Hear, hear!

Hello! Anyone awake over there at Justice?
