9. Yeah, it seems to me they used the actual protest to inflate their numbers

There are the actual people protesting oddly enough the war on terror laws which many kind of vaguely understand, people who seem okay with the original act of setting the fires, and armed insane people mostly coming in from out of the area that used the other people. They have successfully turned the protest into a stupidfeast a gun waving. I doubt most of the original protesters are itching to die so Bundy can keep owing grazing fees or whatever it is they think they represent. Needless to say whatever the original message, armed rebellion isn't on many people's agenda.
