Hey Jow Forums I recently have been given the opportunity to meet with the guys that had the bundy stand off with the...

I think it was actually a good move for militias. Most people haven't been exposed to militias and if they have they dismiss them as doughy LARPers.
This ordeal was a good demonstration of power that organized militias can have. And that civilians aren't powerless under the tyrrany of the state. Proved that even more refined militias could be a very formidable force.
At least that's what i took from it.

kys socialist nigger

the issue is that it just made militias look gullible. bundy was basically just trying to wriggle he way out of paying taxes and knew militias would jump at the oppotunity to play robin hood.

Why do they think they have the right to use public land to graze their private herd free of charge?

because they thought no one was looking.
though it also seems like the government has been after their land for some time? i dunno the whole situation was weird.

>t. coastal boi
>what is the entire history of western public land use

imagine falling for federale propaganda this hard.

Sounds like communism, frankly.

That's true. A more valid cause would've lionized militias. But a beneficial display of power came from it, the public as a whole may not respect militias but now they know they are out there and aren't all pushovers. At least they didn't do something really stupid and irreparably tarnish militias and turn them into an enemy of the state.

sure but i wish militias would remember theres more to being a militia than sticking it to the government. They really should be community service first and citizen-soldier second.

Standoff good
the ranger starion was a 100% a fed op. Which is why the drudge dropped the charges. because half the members at the station were glowing in the dark.

A lot of truth to both. Even biker gangs which are just groups of criminals know to do community events - why wouldn't people who want to be seen as protectors do the same?

Because they're LARPers and therefore mostly retarded

Ask them how does it feel to aid and abet a criminal parasite who uses OUR land for profit without recompense.

yeah its because most people who are drawn to militias are people who just want to shoot guns and talk about shooting the government.

>because half the members at the station were glowing in the dark.

more like half the members were just yokels who thought it'd be cool to be rebels but then they got bored/scared and left. they didn't want to make a big scene out of things so they just arrested the ringleaders.

a militia formed to only be a militia against "something" is useless. They need actual purpose, and men motivated not by LARPing but an actual ideology and specific threat. And no, the entire US government doesn't count as a threat. Even the CSA weren't that deluded.

the real reason is that they already think they are doing a community service. biker gangs realize they have a reputation to improve while the militias just don't see that because they believe themselves to already be good. they really could use with some community service and outreach programs.
