Started a couple of days ago. What is your take on the situation?

 

I think there will be a point where people get fed up over them. No clue what law enforcement is going to do about it, but the FBI, state authorities, and local authorities are aware.

Guys.  Guys.  Vanilla ISIS forgot their snacks.  They're protesting government but wanna use UPS to get food mailed to them.  Get ready for war.

 

Yeah, nothing says "anti-government" like having to use UPS to get food mailed to them.

 

But really, it's only a matter of time before people, specifically law enforcement get fed up with these idiots. I mean, even the family of the ranchers they are "supporting" don't want anything to do with them. That should say something, shouldn't it?

So, I just found a petition calling for the National Guard to intervene in this. Interesting sides here. On one hand, you have the mockery but on the other hand, you have people calling for the National Guard.

 

However, law enforcement does have time on their side. Especially since these morons forgot food. You can only go so long without food and you know, law enforcement could probably just stop it from being delivered if they wanted to. That might escalate it, though.

 

EDIT: You also have people calling out a "double standard" in regards to the whole National Guard thing. As in, they were present during Ferguson and Baltimore but not here.

The reason the police are holding back is for the following:

 

1) There are no reported hostages

2) The reserve isn't really high priority since it is in a remote area, and the building isn't essential compared to others.

3) For the most part, those occupying aren't doing anything that would immediately alarm police.

4) White privlege?

 

I think that the same would happen if they were all black.

Depending on how skilled their botonists are, they might be able to become fairly self sufficient. Somewhere, Ron Paul is laughing as his revolution slowly falls into motion

And we might be laughing if/when the internet decide to turn this whole thing into some sort of meme. Aside from law enforcement and perhaps other anti government people, very few seem to be taking them seriously.

The same church that they cited their rhetoric from has denounced them.  I don't see anyone taking them seriously.  This whole thing is one bad punch line.
