Between the snacks, dildos and crazy ass commentary from the so called militia, this has been an amazing lesson on reality TV militia - they are fugging clowns who know very little about anything.
The end was priceless.
Thanks all you great folks who kept us watching this comedy of errors and stupidity on the part of the occupiers. The Feds had the last laugh and we'll be laughing at this forever - waiting for the movie

(269,049 posts)This was hysterically funny - and the way in which Americans from all over laughed them to scorn was even more fun.
An they took down their own stupid ass daddy as he began to buy his own bullshit.

(51,129 posts)His rant "... all I need is my marijuana, and you guys won't even let me have my marijuana, you guys take that ..." is apparently a reference to how he would be just fine if he could grow weed, wouldn't need a job.
It seemed he was asking for weed, no he just wants to grow a crop every year.
I've said all along prisoners would make the best weed farmers.

(19,339 posts)a sad commentary on the drug laws in this country. The others were ignorant bumpkins, but I think Fry had real problems. I can't find it in me to laugh at him -- and I have a mean heart.

but there are thousands of young men in prison for using theirs and he wants the Feds to give him his ganja - that's hilarious or unbelievable 'privilege' demands.
Brickbat
(19,339 posts)He's got some white privilege, for sure. But Ohio has decriminalized pot, to some extent, and when someone doesn't have the medication they need, they do all sorts of crazy stuff -- like demand it from the feds. Ironic, but not necessarily funny, I guess.

Watch: Portland comedians sing Oregon standoff ballad
Portland comedians called "Fit to Print" finished recording the Johnny Cash-esque "Ballad of the Malheur Patriots" on Thursday morning.
Meanwhile: 7 more named in new indictment linked to Oregon refuge occupation

(58,785 posts)The movie COULD be fantastic. Best in Show-style. Sadly, Robin Williams is no longer with us. I see him as head negotiator trying to find moments of rationality to connect with.

(58,785 posts)I can't guess what the story of his conflicted intimate relationship with his favorite weapon might be, but that's for the writers...

(58,785 posts)and needed depth. Contrast to the scene when the potato chips and dildo(s?) arrive.
With the right writers, it could be fantastic. Unfortunately, the most likely TV or movie pieces to come out of this would be subsidized, yet again, by anti-government billionaires, and they always have a different vision...

(154,021 posts)I shall remember Tarpman as well. to be fair, some of their complaints are not that disimilar from those of inner city youth. (police is indeed out of control). It is what they perceive to be out of control that is different am afraid.
I was in the middle of writing those notes, and I suspect I still have to. Becuase there is something to their complaints... just that they have gone about it the absolute wrong way with a lack of understanding that is epic and mostly got away with it becuase of yes, white privilege.
When I read the charging sheet is going to be light... I was fuming.
