After 9/11 is the process for an airplane hijacking still "give them what they want and don't resist"?
The local sheriff has already said he agrees with their views, and right wing militias are too hot a potato for anyone to risk their political lives doing anything at any time. There is no secret plan, the entire plan is "hope it goes away".

Ursula K. Le Guin is not a fan of the takeover:

http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2016/01/19/3740829/ursula-k-le-guin-oregon-lte/

quote:

The Oregonian’s A1 headline on Sunday, Jan. 17, “Effort to free federal lands,” is inaccurate and irresponsible. The article that follows it is a mere mouthpiece for the scofflaws illegally occupying public buildings and land, repeating their lies and distortions of history and law.

Ammon Bundy and his bullyboys aren’t trying to free federal lands, but to hold them hostage. I can’t go to the Malheur refuge now, though as a citizen of the United States, I own it and have the freedom of it. That’s what public land is: land that belongs to the public — me, you, every law-abiding American. The people it doesn’t belong to and who don’t belong there are those who grabbed it by force of arms, flaunting their contempt for the local citizens.

Those citizens of Harney County have carefully hammered out agreements to manage the refuge in the best interest of landowners, scientists, visitors, tourists, livestock and wildlife. They’re suffering more every day, economically and otherwise, from this invasion by outsiders.

Instead of parroting the meaningless rants of a flock of Right-Winged Loonybirds infesting the refuge, why doesn’t The Oregonian talk to the people who live there?

This will end when one (or more) people who have spent some time at the refuge will, for totally unknown reasons, go on a shooting spree. They will die, and afterwards the militants will explain that they had kicked those people out for being crazy and never really affiliated with them.

Everybody goes home with no punishments beyond some small misdemeanors for the most egregious offenders (if that), and it is as though nothing happened. Except for the families of the victims

Bonus idiocy from that link:

Always nice to see a bunch of entitled, destructive white morons fail to understand the importance of understanding the past 20,000 years of human history in the Americas and the dynamic relationships between humans and nature played out across that time. There is a wealth of usefulness to "modern cultures" that can be gleaned from understanding how humans succeeded and failed in the past.

Yeah, and this bothers me, because this is often the excuse trotted out when someone who has mental or emotional issues complains about abuse. Oh noo, they're just making it up, they're crazy, see?

Not that it doesn't happen, sure. But it's not like these guys have any idea. They're just invested in 'those poor Hammonds!' so of course they're going to write off the alleged victim of a pretty ugly child abuse case. Being legit crazy doesn't mean you just do random stuff for no reason and without explanation. That's why there are different types of mental illness and why every case is different. Crazy is just a catch-all term for 'something has gone haywire upstairs in some way', but to the mentally ill person what they're doing often makes sense. There's a logical progression from point A to point B, even if their 'logic' is not something that remotely resembles what people without mental illness would call logic. Emotional issues are harder to pin down (I say this as someone who has both) because your brain chemistry doesn't necessarily need a train of thought to radically alter your mood. But of course that doesn't make you immune to abuse, and being willing to engage in self harm doesn't make someone else harming you okay (I know you're not saying this, I'm just speaking in general).

Either way, denial is convenient for them.
