Keep in mind that yeah they are cowards, but a misstep at either the ranch or the sanctuary by the Feds would have resulted in a lot of dead people.

[[ Please wait, retrieving information... ]]Voyager I posted:I haven't followed this in the most stringent detail but if I recall correctly almost everyone at the reserve hosed off as soon as Finicum's death made them realize they weren't playing Call of Duty. They've so far demonstrated exactly one person willing to give up their lives for the cause. Skellybones posted:The vast majority of them (and people in general) are lazy, incompetent, or cowardly. Shouting angrily is all they are willing or able to do. Temporarily taking over a bird sanctuary is not so much a dire warning of things to come but a comforting reminder that they are really bad at this whole insurrection thing. Dapper_Swindler posted:This, Most of the wannabee nutjobs are massive cowards or are doing as weird weekend cosplay hobbies. Unless someone like Trump outright calls for a armed uprising, i doubt anything will happen. They won't riot, they'll bitch. These people believe whatever the news tells them because they don't really live in places that challenge their thinking. All they know is that they feel bad, the people they agree with feel bad, so therefore the world is a powderkeg. They're so disconnected from reality that something like this had to happen just to show how full of poo poo they are. And when the government decided to step back and let them fly apart at the seams, they did so in glorious ways. They wanted a Ruby Ridge, they got mockery and dildos. Keep in mind the only fatality was a guy who was actually going for his gun a number of times before he finally got shot. And there'll be no riots in Cleveland. I don't think the Republican base has the passion or the fury to do so. And while it'll be funny to imagine the 1968 Democratic Convention with hoverrounds and old Social Security Collectors holding badly misspelled signs while riot cops beat them to a pulp, the most likely thing will be a bunch of bitching and whining until some of them fall in line and others simply stay at home and do something else. This is a movement that relies on reinforcements to do their dirty work for them, and those reinforcements--oddly enough, just like the One True Conservative to Unite the Republican Party--aren't coming.

Yeah, that's the important thing, these people are deep, deep cowards. They only take action when they have an overwhelming advantage. At Bundy Ranch, they had the high ground, numbers, and children as human shields; so of course they felt a bit bold. Malheur was mostly unoccupied due to the federal employees having the winter off, it's an easy target for an 'armed takeover' when there isn't anyone to resist. Remember, Fat Patriot was screaming into a camera for all the Navy Seals in the entire armed forces to quit their posts and come help him escape. Changed his tune to 'cmon guys, we're just camping' overnight once it became obvious help wasn't coming. They are brave freedom fighters until the time comes to actually put some skin in the game. The only thing all these chucklefucks can safely do is bellyache on facebook. red19fire has issued a correction as of 18:24 on May 2, 2016 |

I read an interesting comment somewhere about why Ammon was a huge idiot for choosing Malheur. He was hoping it would be a repeat of the Bunkerville standoff, but didn't realize part of what made that successful was the location. Bunkerville was near Las Vegas which has an international airport, an abundance of hotels, and the ranch was right off the highway. Compared to Malheur, which was a three hour drive from the nearest airport in the middle of nowhere in a place that could barely accommodate the few people who showed up. So on top of being cowards, True American Patriots aren't going to show up if it's not convenient.

I mean, I completely agree that most of them are like this, but some of the people who feel the same as them are actual ex-military nutjobs. Just because they didn't show up at Malheur doesn't mean that they don't exist AT ALL.

The vast majority of them are just brainless cowards taking the opportunity to play Patriot Fantasy Camp, agreed, but when they have so many kids around who have been brought up knowing nothing but their gibberish and unwarranted rage, true fanaticism can fester into an actual threat. That said, until then, I still feel okay mocking these fools for now, but it is a good thing to remember that even an idiot with a gun can be dangerous.

Eventually one of them will go crazy enough to warrant a nationwide crackdown, finally. Wasn't that husband/wife mass shooting couple in Vegas part of the patriot movement? I thought they shot up a Walmart trying to start a revolution.

Over the years there have been some flare-ups of violence from "tax protestors," another group that is similar to and often overlaps with SovCits. http://archive.adl.org/learn/ext_us/tpm.html Also, a lot of these people are what could be called "wound collectors," particularly among the SovCits. Nothing is their fault, rather they are victims of the government, brown people, women, immigrants, or whatever. The term itself was coined by an FBI profiler, but I would argue it should be in the DSM as a diagnosable disorder. https://www.psychologytoday.com/blog/spycatcher/201304/wound-collectors

The whole strawman idea comes from the redemption movement. Tax protesters are the oldest sovcits. Prior to a decade or so, IRS agents were just about the only people at all to deal with these cocksuckers.

The matriarch of the "Sharp Family Singers" from Malheur is under arrest for assaulting a police officer and most of her children are in state custody. The locations of the other three are apparently unknown. There's a past history of abuse, primarily in the form of insufficient feeding. Details in this excellent Oregonian article.

They see absolutely no need to lie about their actions because THE CONSTITUTION is on their side. Their whole schtick is just a more insane version "conservatism cannot fail, it can only be failed," and their continual losses in the courtroom are just proof that both the system is to get them and they aren't sovereign citizening hard enough, and they double down on their insanity.

She's divorced, had custody of 7/10 kids, and seemingly doesn't have a job. Methinks she is a welfare queen, in serious debt, or engaged in some sort of scammy business.

Yeah ad networks are pretty much one of the only remaining massively successful malware delivery vectors and if you browse without adblock to give a newspaper .00001 cents for your view you're just a massive sucker. Web advertising is a fundamentally broken, obsolete industry that's in its late stages and it's desperately trying to convince everyone that it's actually essential and ~the right thing to do~ to stay alive, but the solution to "content providers need money" is to pay content providers in other ways, not begrudgingly accept more ads.
