Nobody likes to see the massive power of a federal agency targeting an individual citizen. But there aren’t any good guys in this, just one who is less bad than the other. Hell yes the government overreacted. But Bundy also broke the law. The courts have ruled against him at every stage. And at the end of the day the government will continue to pursue it and he’s going to lose his land and his business through less visually attention grapping means.
The courts have ruled against him at every stage.
Yeah, the “courts”.
Please see post #21 of this thread. Also, try to listen to Mark Levin's opening segment from yesterday.
The Feds are wrong. Bundy is in the right. Levin masterly explains the devious acts of the left that led directly to Bundy's action.
Mark speaks of context. Bundy is standing up to a very abusive government.
Please keep in mind that the Obama government has padded the courts with judges that rule in their favor.
What “law” did Bundy break?
Should Christians submit to unjust laws, by tangential logic? How about ex post facto laws, by another tangent?
hmmmm...you could make a similar argument for the second amendment being a 'collective' right and not an individual right pre-Heller and segregation.
Might want to re-think your argument.

Yep. The Feds stood down because the blowback from a shootout would have been a nightmare.
Somebody higher up the food chain had the good sense to realize that you don’t need a sledgehammer to crack a peanut.
I expect the Fed will now pursue less spectacular methods and I expect they’ll win in the end.
