re: #218 GunstarGreen

The BLM backed down because there were too many innocents - women and children in the crowd, that they didn’t want to get into a firefight or armed conflict with these people. Defuse the situation and then go back in at a time and place of their choosing.

Thing is that liens are secured by armed law enforcement all the time. Sheriffs’ offices around the country use armed officers and officers of the court to repossess items to secure judgments for liens. Happens all the time. This isn’t some unusual situation vis a vis armed officers trying to take the herd of cattle as restitution for the judgment.

Bundy doesn’t recognize the federal government, or the judgments of the federal courts. That puts him at odds with most of the country, and law enforcement has every right and the authority to secure those judgments. Those that continue to back Bundy are supporting someone who is an extremist at heart and whose actions are criminal for stealing from the public - taxpayers.
