More thoughts on the Oregon criminals [View all]

Okay I get not wanting another Waco. I get that.
But leaving the water, power, and phones on?

Explain why those aren't shut down like last week.
Why couldn't the Feds announce that time is up and that they are shutting it down plus closing the roads in and out.

Then wait for them under these new conditions and arrest them as they leave. They won't last long as they have shown they are not well prepared.
