They will wait until all the militia members return home... then they will pounce in the middle of the night

Feds lost the battle in a PR victory for the Conservatives, but they haven’t lost the war. They will do their best with their Hollywood allies to paint the Ranchers as fools and Tea Party nut cases (and racists too). They will be back and this time they will win—If we let them! Remember Folks its all about Power and the November Election. The Democrats do not want a bloodbath on National Television—that will presage a Bloodbath at the polls that even corruption and ballot box tampering can not stop.

They will likely come back with an arrest warrant or a search warrant for the house...It will also likely be at night and by morning there won't be a ranch or people to rebuild it...

Dingy Harry would resign in a free country, but he will get away with this. Where is the condemnation from his fellow Senators?

Pray America wakes up

(imho) an excellent statement and question bray. Am certain many of us suspect the answer the question but we are lacking proof. Proof is difficult to attain. Powerful people work constantly to suppress the truth. One becomes more powerful when many corrupt powerful people band together. Something am certain our powerful federal people know and enjoy with each others full support and compliant media suppressers.

"And let me add a bit of clarity: they had no choice!" And that right there is the news of the decade. Their only alternative was to stay and die, without support from the County or the State.

You KNOW Obama and Reid are gnashing their teeth and are both very upset.

Expect the next showdown to have:

FAA is his name. Nice, government agency acronym. Recent addition (2012).

As a non lawyer, I have been told that the Federal Government can’t run an operation in a county unless the Sheriff agrees. The Sheriff is the highest law enforcement officer in a county.

I was surprised that the Feds came in without state support. The question is where were the Nevada State Police etc.

I noticed that FAA hasn’t posted anything since.

Funny how that works.

Asking for names sure tripped an alarm in a lot of our minds; however, his or her failure to post is something I give a pass to. People aren't like you and I, who post here all the time. :)

Nonetheless, based on FAA's behavior (asking for freeper names), I'd say we keep a closer eye on that one.

“Makes one wonder how many laws have been rewritten since the 1800s to possibly and probably remove ‘grandfathered rights’?”

Couldn’t say. However, these ranchers ancestors Homesteaded their respective 160 acres long before the open range came under jurisprudence of either the state or federal government. Hence, I suspect that these small islands of private ownership in a large sea of public land has been a festering thorn in the hides of radical environmentalists and their goons the EPA.

Patriots responded with a semi-rapid response team with media and boots on the ground.
However, I believe that next time, in a similar situation, the Feds will instead respond with a SWAT raid or just drone strike. The area will be cordoned off, evidence will be gone and people will disappear.

They’ll have to be able to wipe out all electronics, and make sure that no one leaks anything. They’ll have to also make sure that there’s no one in the, “Strike Zone,” that’ll be missed (say, Ted Cruz, Sarah Palin, etc -if they happen to be there with our Patriots)
What I want to know is this:
Would it be going too far to leak all of the names and contact info of EVERY fed involved with this fiasco?
Every name?
Every badge?
Every License plate?
Opinion?

Sounds like an excellent reason to join Free Republic and make oneself known to those that can be trusted ... Jim Robinson comes to mind. By donating to Free Republic, Jim comes to know each of us. Data bases are build and protection is found inside the 1st Amendment. My humble opinion. Great point from you grumpy.

Thanks, NTI!

I will say that I began to sniff things out here, regarding the land: I thought someone wanted the land. http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/news/3142308/posts?page=77#77
