I don't know if there are possible legal ramifications, but having armed nutjobs roaming around, freely able to intimidate and harass locals doesn't seem like an ideal situation.

Personally, I feel much safer with the knowledge that white supremacists can actively engage in armed insurrection against the federal government with no consequences whatsoever.

nothing will happen

they're a right wing militia and if we do anything other than plead with them to leave their buddies will kill hundreds in revenge

but we can't arrest their buddies for being terrorists cause that would be unamerican

Just as an fyi, they certainly are actively hurting people because there are federal employees that cannot do their jobs and if this stretches into months could see a loss of pay and whatever work is currently being done, which is bad

It's fun to laugh at these people, but they are doing damage even if it's not convenient to acknowledge it.

:laffo: at armed right wing militia members patrolling a US town being referred to as rednecks driving around. It's a right wing militia, them being rednecks goes without saying, but militia members, "safety" patrols, are probably the operative phrases here.

Are federal employee laws so lovely that if you are unable to work due to a loving militia occupying your place of work, it results in docked pay?

Even besides that, they slashed the tires of the Sheriffs wife and have been stalking her. But I'm sure Popular Thug Drink is right and they are totally harmless pacifists who would never hurt a fly, so doing anything at all about them would be sinful.

It's quite possible they'll just keep paying them as normal indefinitely, who knows, but it's possible with enough time that pay or the job itself disappears until the situation is resolved.

I'm specifically thinking of placing them on furlough, though I'm not sure if that's applicable here.

No, see, first you have to have someone with your general ideology blow up a building full of people. At least that's what I'm learning from this thread.

Oh, they aren't stalking her any more because she left town. Also harassing his seventy-year old parents. Also, you know, the people that work in that refuge are probably living in town too, and now some of them have been asked to leave for their own safety because these guys might very well have their addresses. Seriously though, at this point it's pretty transparently obvious Popular Thug Drink isn't actually reading anything anyone types unless he can shitpost at it.

If they're GS employees I could see them getting a paycheck for this pay period and maybe another, but they'll probably be furloughed if it drags out any longer. Really goes to show you how much these chucklefucks care about "the people"; they're walking examples of FYGM.

Government people aren't people.

Unless those government people are conservative. In which case they understand and support the militia's actions.

according to a judge it's costing 60-70k the gov 60-70k a day for the militia to occupy that station and he's gonna send bundy the bill once all this is done

good thing they didn't go to the expense of blockading the loving station, ending this earlier might've cost the government less money!

I am sure decent amount of them do support the cause(or at least what they think the cause is.) BUT, i think alot of them are kissing the milliatans asses becauses they don't want to get hurt or make the bundys mad. the militia and their supporters are loving with people who openly oppose them.(slashing tires, intimidation, threats, poo poo like that) my guess is alot of people dont want that. that doesn't excuse the quislings though.

It's basically the Trump 2016 plan to balance the budget.. First, militia occupy your workplace and kick you out, preventing you from doing your job. Then, republican legislators bitch about you getting paid for not doing your job, and "cut costs" by firing you!

Not until neighboring counties or states refuse access to people leaving the area because it's impossible to tell whether someone is secretly a militia supporter looking to gain a foothold in their new location.
