i'm not a fan of it. I don't like the disparity with how these guys are being treated versus how they'd be treated if they were muslims or, like, the Black Panthers or something and did the same thing. It's hard to imagine the local authorities and federal authorities being like, 'Well, let's just wait them out and try to come to a peaceful resolution. These guys just got themselves worked up and I'm sure they'll come to their senses.' Though I don't want violence, I just think the treatment of these guys is different. It's like because they're white angry men, they get far more patience than you'd expect otherwise. I'm glad the captured ones are getting felony charges now, and hope the rest are charged as well. Looks like the penalty is about six years. And with a felony charge on their record, they won't be allowed to own guns anymore, which seems like a good idea. The refuge itself is 187,757 acres of wildlife habitat that they're loving up and keeping people from doing their jobs and keeping the public away from the refuge. It's ridiculous that this has gone on as long as it has. |

ChairmanMeow posted:The US has absolute poo poo tons of militias who are armed to the teeth. They have also handled compound situations very poorly in the past. It makes sense to wait this out and try to not kill people and spark off a bunch of stuff. no, I totally agree, like I say in the next paragraph it's good that they're avoiding violence. I just wish it was consistency across the board. I really hope you don't think I was saying they should be killed because of the unfairness. |
