so there was a “contract” out on the Bundys...

mob violence...

[grobdriver]

I recall reading early in the matter that the Fed's snipers had been "captured", walked down the hill and released.

Did that not happen?

[rktman]

Well, probably true. Of course according to the totally honest hairy reid-iculous, the T party supporters and armed civilians are “domestic terrorists”. Thinking back, even with the media (?)coverage, it didn’t stop Waco from happening. Since no one could actually see the folks burning that could be a drawback for the feds here. My guess is that a “danger zone” will be declared and all media will be moved well away from the area if and when there is another “confrontation”. Anybody seen ron hairiuhcih(sp) lately? (Ruby Ridge!)

Looking at shoulder patches there are a lot of mercs on the federal side.

The federal snipers, several of them — I don’t know if you know this — but they were paid mercenaries. They’re contractors. They’re paid hit men.

With all the police-type agencies the feds have I'm sure the snipers, if that's what they were, came from one of them. They don't have to go outside of government to find a marksman who can shoot someone.

[yefragetuwrabrumuy]

There are a huge number of patriotic veterans who are top notch snipers. And there are many who spent a lot of time doing “counter-sniper” operations. See where I am going with this?

If the government brings in mercenaries, our side needs to bring in professionals who are a LOT better than their mercenaries.

Importantly, our counter snipers are *not* murderers, they will be defenders, and they will not open fire unless the federal mercenaries start sniping at citizens.

Optimally, the federals will never know that the counter-snipers are even there. The situation will end peacefully, with no federal the wiser. But if the federal mercenary snipers decide to murder people, that will be the end of them. And not a tear shed.

Let’s see if they are willing to declare one of their dead snipers as “innocent” and give him a promotion and pay raise, just like they do their living snipers who kill innocent people.

I would almost expect Obama’s thug squads to include foreign mercenaries.

[BubbaBasher]

Don’t trust this “Sheriff”. He’s that one claiming the Bundys used women and children as human shields. A film maker was on the Kelly files last night stating that he was there and this did NOT happen.

[PATRIOT1876]

Sounds more like something that would go on in a tinpot dictatorship in South America

[M Kehoe]

Imho, one small insignificant event, or a number of small insignificant events at this time in our history, could trigger CWII.

What burns me is that the Feds will not protect our borders but will gun down American citizens they have a gripe with? Something is way out of whack here.
