SHOCKER: Paranoid Militia Nuts Start Suspecting Each Other, Kick 'Oathkeepers' Out.

[TrollBuster9090]

Two things that will not come as a shock to anybody, and one thing that probably SHOULD shock you, but won't.

1. Anarchist militia nuts, who hate all forms of 'government' are having trouble 'governing' their alleged defense of the Bundy ranch. (Not surprised.)

2. Paranoid militia nuts, who see conspiracy theories and plots everywhere are starting to suspect each other of being gummint agents. The 'Oathkeepers' are labelled traitors and deserters by other nutcases who don't consider them to be crazy enough. (Not surprised.)

3. These same paranoid crackpots are allowed to continue being the most heavily armed people in the country. (SADLY, not surprised.)

Clearly these guys were never forced to read LORD OF THE FLIES in school. Otherwise they'd know they're supposed to have possession of the CONCH before they can speak.

[Frustratedlady]

1. I saw a comment in some article a few days ago that the FBI

had infiltrated the militia. Whether that is true or just put out to cause confusion and distrust, I don't know. Don't even ask where I read it, as my memory won't help me come up with an answer. It was one of the myriad of articles about the Bundy situation. I DID see it, though.

5. They probably have, despite all attempts by the GOP to stop any government law enforcement

agents from investigating the people who make up a large, energetic chunk of their base. Apparently, it's only illegal to plot to overthrow the United States Government if you're brown.

13. Careful, this just gives these racist thugs an opportunity to gun down someone...

then say it was done by FBI infiltrators.

Whenever they're caught doing anything illegal such as murder or rape they'll scream "FBI infiltrator!", its a common right wing tactic.

[TrollBuster9090]

14. Good point.

Although, they'd do that whether the FBI had infiltrated or not. So, given a choice, I'd rather the FBI or the ATF infiltrated these groups. Harry Reid is 100% correct to call them domestic terrorists.

[JDPriestly]

19. Assuming infiltration to be true, the first person I would suspect is the guy who seems to have

taken charge. The language he uses "treason," "chain of command," etc. suggests some sort of military training. His mastery of the English language is significantly better than that of the others who speak. He appears to be a fascist, militaristic personality -- or at least imitating one very well. He could be leading the entire group into using language and taking actions that might put them all in jail for a long time.

I'm just guessing, but I would not expect a provocateur to be the soft-spoken guy who isn't sure how far he wants to take things.

These guys are a bunch of fools.

The leader is so authoritarian and playing so cleverly on the paranoia of the fools who are following him. It is very sad.

The leader speaks as if he has set up some sort of alternative, authoritarian government out there in the desert, something where he is the dictator and everybody who doesn't agree with him is to be silenced.

I contrast this with what we saw in the Occupy movement. With very few exceptions, the people in the Occupy movement welcomed strangers, sought to listen to viewpoints different from their own, even conflicting with their own and imposed only the most basic rules about who could come and go. Occupy was at its core non-violent although inevitably it attracted some violent types. The violence in Occupy was unrelated to the purpose of the movement.

I find this video to be very disturbing. We are "one nation" not a lot of little punks with guns hoping to shoot it out with the police.

These people could be very dangerous to our country.

What amazed me is that they apparently have internet access out there. One guy talked about his Facebook posts. What in the world?

[teknomanzer]

30. Good read from SPLC on the wingnut rift.

Its like an episode of the Twilight Zone. The paranoid mob turns against itself.

[HooptieWagon]

31. Wow, the story at link is hysterical.

What a bunch of morons.

[bitchkitty]

36. In comments on a Youtube video that I watched,

two teabaggers were speculating that this guy is a gubmint plant.

I haven't seen a bigger bunch of idiots in I don't know when! Talk about delusional!

[yellowcanine]

2. Too funny. Votes being taken during a circle jerk.

"Dereliction of duty, blah blah blah." Do these guys even listen to themselves? Actual military members must be laughing their asses off.

[TrollBuster9090]

6. "Votes being taken during a circle jerk" is a pretty good analogy.

[zebonaut]

3. oh look they are forming a mini government. But the two guys on the right are traitors

[TrollBuster9090]

4. The whole thing reminded me of those 'conch shell' meetings the boys would have in Golding's

Lord of the Flies, which I've now added to the post.

[AAO]

7. If that is what the gubmint is up against....

[Blue Owl]

8. Remember, this ranch is only big enough for one of you...

[Hoyt]

9. Yahoos fighting over who runs the show. LMAO.

[Dollface]

34. Just wondering what the correct term is for a group of yahoos (pronounced yay-whos).

I like a skulk of yahoos but other possibilities include a sloth, an obstinancy, a bloat, a crash, or a scurry.

[HooptieWagon]

10. Wait till the temp hits triple digits...

...and their brains start frying.

[951-Riverside]

15. They're bringing support dogs out with them in the heat

F*ck these a**holes

[IMG][/IMG]

[kysrsoze]

28. They probably feed those poor dogs that absolute shit Wal-Mart dog food.

[951-Riverside]

29. Its shameful.

Those poor dogs just want to offer companionship to vets, they didnt ask to lay out on the hot desert ground while being fed hot water and crap food.

F*ck them, take these morons dogs away and give them to a Vet who will actually cherish them.

Seeing that makes me so mad!

[PeoViejo]

11. Shot at Dawn

Militiamen set up daily Firing Squads to liquidate anyone accused of Treason.

[TrollBuster9090]

17. Nah. Corporal punishment. "Stoppage of Mountan Dew rations."

[PeoViejo]

22. No Snickers Bar for You.

[erpowers]

12. Cowards Scared of the Military

Are these guys just a bunch of people who are afraid of the military, but want to play soldier? They love to used military terminology, but how many of them have actually been in the military? Much of what they said did not apply to the Bundy Ranch. The Bundy Ranch is neither a battlefield or a kill zone. In addition, considering at least some of them wanted to use women and children as defense barriers they do not seem like the military type.

Furthermore, how much of the Bundy Ranch stuff is about ego and not wanting to share the spotlight for these militia groups. Throughout much of the video I felt the guy in the black shirt with the Gatorade bottle wanted to stroke his ego and be the center of attention.

[TrollBuster9090]

16. Very true.

And about the number of actual military vets in these groups. In my experience, some militia men ARE military vets, but generally only served one hitch, probably served as a cook or something, and then didn't re-enlist because they can't stand military discipline and order (not to mention having to swear allegiance to a Kenyan communist usurper). They got to fire lots of sexy guns during basic training, and then proceeded to spend the next four years mopping floors, and figured it wasn't for them.

[kysrsoze]

26. Exactly. What a bunch of stupid, fvcking douchebags. Get a hobby, FFS.

These morons need to get into work working or SOMETHING to occupy their idle, feeble minds.

[Crowman1979]

18. How long before they start shooting each other, or turn against their master Cliven?

[kysrsoze]

27. One can only hope.

[A Simple Game]

20. First if I were in charge of that group, that conversation would have never been recorded.

Second you never let the enemy know your weaknesses.
Third I would never let the general public know I was there to stroke my own ego which is what that leader is doing.
Fourth I would have known why and when one of the largest factions of my forces were preparing to leave before it happened and wouldn't need their leader to return and explain the reasons.

What a bunch of fools, the leader does seem articulate and having some leadership experience, but not too intelligent.

[chopper050]

21. Why?

Why is this shit still going on? Don't these people have jobs they have to go to? WTF!

[Iwillnevergiveup]

23. Mr. Black T-Shirt

appears to be drinking Aqua Velva. They're all getting burned out and crabby. Let the fizzling continue!

[El Shaman]

24. Frequancy class-

little do they know that the cell phone towers have long pinged their coordinates!!! All the NSA or CIA have to do is load the info onto an old, Iraqi surplus, drone and A DIOS Mo Fos !!!!

[freshwest]

25. At 9:34 they raise their hands to vote, but Miss Tough Teabag doesn't get a vote. Imagine that! n/t

Thanks for keeping on this.

[jalan48]

33. The Leader.

The leader of this Bundy Bunch looks way to bright to be hanging out with these folks. I wonder if he attended military training school? Maybe worked for a private contractor like Black Water?

[Dollface]

35. It's probably easier for the FBI to have them all in one place. They can do background work while

these geniuses stand around under a blazing sun. I feel bad for the townies though.

[DeSwiss]

37. The weird part?

- You could say that about others as well:

1. TeaBagger nuts, who hate all forms of 'government' are having trouble 'governing' -- their alleged reason for running for Congress. (Not surprised.)

2. Paranoid military nuts of the Pentagon and NATO, who see conspiracy theories and plots everywhere are starting to suspect each other of being whistleblowers. The 'Occupy and the Snowden supporters' are labelled traitors and deserters by the other nutcases (local police) who consider them to be crazy enough to kill. (Not surprised.)

3. These same paranoid crackpots (The US Military) are allowed to continue being the most heavily armed people in the world. (SADLY, not surprised.)




Meh. Who cares, eh?
