I really think it would be funny if the army decided it had to go somewhere and had to pass Bundy's

[Maraya1969]

ranch on the way there. You know with tanks. The kind with big thingamajigs in the front that fire huge whatayacallits that blow things up.

I would just love to watch those idiots firing at those big assed tanks! Actually I think most of them would run home instead.

1. Can you imagine the poor people who live in that town? With all those morons in camouflage

swaggering around with guns drawn?

I would love to see the tanks go it. I bet the people who live there would too.

[ManiacJoe]

2. It is doubtful that many have the guns actually drawn.

Their presence might be temporarily good for business, maybe. What are the "morons" doing for food and lodging?

[Squinch]

4. Oh, yeah. I'm just sure they are all real good for the local economy. Are you kidding?

Hundreds of armed psychotic people are not a good thing to have around.

And why the quotes around "morons?" Are you under the impression that Bundy's followers are a brain trust?

[ManiacJoe]

9. Not kidding. They have to eat somewhere.

Quotes used for not-my-word, standard use of quotes.

psychotic - I cannot speak to that. Perhaps you know more?

10. Lot of them folks

like that MRE survival food... you know, like poached elk jerky and stuff like that.

Here's what the Congressional Rep. from Bundy's district said last night...

[ManiacJoe]

11. What the congressman said sounds about right.

I would say lots of folks "like" MREs, but they certainly enjoy their convenience and their big leap forward from the previous versions of battle rations. One certainly does not want to make MREs a long-term staple of ones diet.

[2naSalit]

12. NO doubt about the MRE thing

but I am pretty sure they aren't spending much in local businesses, even the casinos in Mesquite. Cracks me up that the Rep. isn't white. That has got to be a burr up Bundyboy's butt... even if he doesn't recognize the federal gubbamint. I am glad Rachel had that interview, it helps the neighbors have some voice on the national scene. They want those idiots out of there, they're bad for business. I know a lot of folks who go to Mesquite for vacation and they would probably go elsewhere knowing this clowns are creating a pseudo police state.

I have seen some survival kits at Costco that comes in a bucket, they probably brought some of those with them. But as mentioned above, Bundy is probably helping to feed them too.

Wonder how many will actually make it home in their vehicles without license plates now that the gubbamint knows where they are. there aren't many roads leading in or out of there. I heard some are on their way to cause trouble in western Idaho later this summer... they want to run the EPA out of the state because some clown wants to do suction mining for gold in a river that is home to at least three endangered species of fish.

A rebellion looking for a place to happen.

7. How many are still hanging around? I thought I read most have gone home

As for food he's probably feeding them

[ManiacJoe]

8. That is what I have heard, too.

[Maraya1969]

13. They are scaring the kids. The kids get stopped when they walk around corners going to their

friend's houses. These people are menaces.

[ManiacJoe]

16. Seriously?

[Maraya1969]

17. Yea it was on MSNBC tonight on one of the shows. They have taken over the damn town.

[ManiacJoe]

18. Sounds like there are some pseudo-checkpoints for cars,

but they are not actually stopping children from walking around.

3. A drone or two spreading those evil chemtrails

would be nice. Or maybe a FEMA semi truck rolling by would make them think the prison camps are getting ginned up.

[951-Riverside]

5. They'd stand at attention and salute with tears in their eyes

After all they love sending kids into war but too cowardly to serve themselves.

[Squinch]

6. That's OK. They won't have to. They'll push the women and children to the front.

[Maraya1969]

14. That would make for some great footage. They are no different from the Taliban

[Maraya1969]

15. No, they don't believe in a federal government. That Bundy guy said he would only listen to the

town sheriff. That's why I'd love for him to see what he is up against.
