31. I want a peaceful resolution

Sun Jan 10, 2016, 07:47 PM

Jan 2016

I don't want the FBI to storm them and have a shoot out but they could start by not allowing them to hold daily press conferences. Not allowing people to come and go as they please. The Bundy's left the compound and went to church today. I'm starting to wonder if they broke any laws or not. They claim they're waiting them out but these folks are moving around like they own the place.

The polling I've seen so far on saltpoint Jan 2016 #8

Exactly, the meme of the day nailed it, from butt of rifle to butt of jokes in a flash. L. Coyote Jan 2016 #13

Well don't you take any blame for the saltpoint Jan 2016 #18

Worse than the jokes, we have some gunners here who actually think they should be left alone, noting Hoyt Jan 2016 #11

I expect them to be conditional when it comes to laws, like Ted Cruz. Rex Jan 2016 #20

They make up for it by aggressively swarming posters who disagree with them SwankyXomb Jan 2016 #42

Their views too closely aligned with the OR milita group imo. Rex Jan 2016 #44

If more violent and out of control terrorist groups show up, then what I wonder? Rex Jan 2016 #28

The safety committee is not a legitimate group Lions_fan Jan 2016 #35

More legitimacy Lions_fan Jan 2016 #25
