I find it odd that the same people that say the government is out of control and over stepped their authority in regards to the armed Bundy protest are all for the government rounding up and deporting people because they “might” be terrorists.
"rescue vehicle"Waco didn't turn out so well. Neither did Ruby Ridge.
Even empires must bow to political opinion. We are
still on the police state swing of the pendulum.
Ghandi never faced this:

It is strange how the people in the Bundy Occupation never faced anything like what is shown in this tweet but Native American water protectors have been beaten, pepper sprayed, tased, and had rubber bullets shot at them and dogs sicced on them.
That is what happens when the government is able to
marginalize small groups. "They're terrorists, or angry
[whatever group], or extremists", etc. Bundy Ranch was
the first successful large-scale group in recent times that
pushed back against the government thugs and told them,
"We aren't going anywhere. You are."
The way you put it there, it is absolutely not a myth. If the government got too far out of hand, do you really think the people are going to wait around for the gov to decide if the people are justified to take over?
Is that something you would take up arms against? Or are you putting those words in my mouth?
And to thwart what you say about opinion, if that ever happens, do you actually think the government will ever say the peoples opinion is right in slapping around or full out taking over the government? Of course they wouldn't, but again, at that point, we don't care...we aren't asking their permission and rightfully so. Justice as any cost, especially *if* people are taking lives without justification and to an unacceptable degree.
But even supporters of the second amendment don't want that - ask your average NRA member if they'd be happy for BLM to "take over the government".....
I'm not talking about the government's opinion - I'm talking about individuals. If person A thinks that the govt is out of control and tries to take over, do person B and person C support their cause? Are they happy to be subservient to person A (since by "taking over" from the govt they now has power over other people)? What if person A and person Cs views are opposed - do they shoot it out until one wins?
