Bundy Graphics (Graphic Warning)

[Logical]

1. It was a fucking victory for them, and they will do it again. nt

[djean111]

2. I agree. Scornful graphics on the internet don't mean squat to them.

[MohRokTah]

3. The terrorists won this time.

If the assholes with guns aren't rounded up, they will only continue their terrorist acts.

4. I hope they wait for armed wingnuts to go home

then go in and actually resolve the situation. Because as they let it stand, they have empowered the armed militia idiots into thinking that this will work again.

5. They'll go home

Nevada in the summer is brutal. And I doubt Bundy is the kind of person who will offer to take them in and feed them.

Reid says it's not over. I believe him.

6. This was a major victory for Obama

He won't have a Waco or Ruby Ridge on his hands.

[KPN]

7. Absolutely Right JJ!

This is also far from over. In the end, Bundy and his Koch-fired gun-totin' Tea Partiers will lose this one. They have to. Otherwise, we will be no different than several middle eastern countries I can think of.

[JJChambers]

8. Exactly!

And this situation could have been a hundred times bigger than Waco or Ruby Ridge if it had been mishandled. Luckily, Obama is wise and resourceful and not a testosterone-laden, adrenaline junky cowboy.

9. They shouldn't have given him his cattle back tho'. nt

[Jim Lane]

10. Yes, cattle return was wrong. Also, too soon to declare this a victory, major or minor.

It's always possible to avoid violence, in a situation like this, by giving the armed thugs everything they ask for. It counts as a victory only if the Obama administration ultimately succeeds in enforcing the law. I'm prepared to give it time to use nonviolent means, which tend to be slower, so I won't yet call it a defeat, but "victory" is very premature.

11. Why aren't these terrorists rounded up and arrested for interfering with

a legal government action. They are rebels, terrorists, insurgents, traitors. They are no better than the Russian sympathizers commandeering government buildings in Ukraine. The government backs down now, that just emboldens more of them to come out the next time. I am so furious at the picture of the traitor at the side of the road all frothing at the mouth to shoot a government employee of the BLM.
