As some 200 FBI vehibles storm Ranch in Burns, OR it's quickly starting to look like the next 'Waco'-like federal siege in the making. Remember that Davidian cult? (Well at least how the story went per mainstream media, anyways??)

We are watching history in the making. What happens in this Oregon stand-off is pivotal for property rights and the freedom to peaceable assemble in the future. By the way, both of these activities are protected under the Constitution. Please note that the FBI agents refused to accept a pocket version of Constitution from the Bundy group. The FBI knows what they are doing is wrong and they don’t want any reminders of their unconstitutional behavior. Hence, the FBI agents and their refusal to accept a pocket version of the Constitution. The refusal of these FBI “guards” to accept a pocket size version of the Constitution is the symbolic event of this whole ordeal.

I'm not sure what the point of the post is, but I would caution you against believing what this crackpot is spouting. This guy can't even get a coherent thought together, for example...

"The Bundy forces are in the community visiting ranches and correcting the abuses of the BLM and the EPA" - Wrong. Even the Hammonds (the family that they apparently went  to OR to help) have said they want no association with the Bundy gang. Same is true for the vast majority of land owners and ranchers in the area.

"It is the Obama administration that is anti-government." - Um What? How completely brain dead is this guy...Does he also believe that Rand Paul is an imperialist?

"Anyone who opposes the use of unconstitutional tactics against the American people is anti-government." - Again this guy is either illiterate or utterly stupid. How could someone who disagrees with using unconstitutional tactics anti government. He is essentially calling himself anit-government at this point, as he opposes the use of unconstitutional tactics against the american people.

"Fox and CNN are part of the movement to supplant the Constitution of the United States. Their daily reports which characterize Ammon Bundy, Pete Santilli and the rest of the Bundy camp as being gun-toting revolutionaries looking to shoot government agents is not only a blatant lie, representative of the worst of yellow journalism, but Fox and CNN are the propaganda arm of this administration’s desire to overturn the Bill of Rights while they impose their “Bill of Wrongs”" - Again Fox News being part of a liberal movement to supplant the constitution? I'm sure he believes Trump is running as a democrat as well.

"We are watching history in the making. What happens in this Oregon stand-off is pivotal for property rights and the freedom to peaceable assemble in the future" Peaceable Assemble? Does he mean peaceably assemble? Don't get me wrong everyone makes mistakes, but if you're in the business of words (as he is a blog writer) then you should probably learn what grammar and syntax are. Additionally, I wonder if he would call the police if we all decided to "peaceable assemble" in his living room. Maybe he forgot that there are constraints on the right to assemble such as time, place, and manner regulations as well as requirements to obtain a permit when public saftey would be a concern. 

These Bundy A**hats are criminals, and those that support them are either insanely misinformed or down right dumb.
