I don’t know much about all this. But for an elected official to be telling ANYONE they’d better be making funeral plans, my support falls on those aligned against him or her. No exceptions.
I watched about 10 minutes of a standoff between BLM personnel equipped with SUVs, K-9s, GUNS (not drawn), stun guns (drawn, brandished and USED) and the whole nine yards of desert apparel, leg holsters, vests, etc. They threw a 57 year old lady to the ground who like most of the unarmed opponents there were asking the BLMers what the backhoes were for (do you need backhoes to move cattle of BLM land, or do you need them to bury dead cattle you killed?).
These young men with government jobs and taking orders and going out to meet Americans in an adversarial situation had better realize the orders they’re following have a history. The history of Ruby Ridge, the history of Waco, Elian Gonzales, and if they asked their daddies, they might get a “the history of soldiers explaining why they burned those bodies in the ovens in Nazi Germany”.....
These functionaries have to be educated that ‘government’ is not God, and they don’t have to follow ‘government’ when it is WRONG.
At this point, it doesn’t really matter what the original reason was for the feds to show up.
They’ve overstepped, overthugged, and they are in the wrong.
What’s right is that they should leave. But they won’t.
They can’t be seen as backing down anywhere or any time.
The history of Ruby Ridge, the history of Waco, Elian Gonzales, and if they asked their daddies, they might get a “the history of soldiers explaining why they burned those bodies in the ovens in Nazi Germany”.....

A domestic analog to the Nuremburg Trials should be the stuff of their nightmares. They can’t see far enough down the road.
