Here's an editorial worth reading:
written by Ron Eachus of Salem,OR. He is a former legislator and a former chairman of the Oregon Public Utility Commission.

What you can do with a gun and copy of the Constitution

With a gun on your hip and a copy of the Constitution in your pocket, you can become a legal scholar and enforce your own interpretation of the Constitution. You can ignore the history of court decisions and language of laws and profess superior knowledge of what the Constitution says.

With a gun on your hip and a copy of the Constitution in your pocket, the fact the Supreme Court has twice determined the federal government has incontrovertible claim to Malheur National Wildlife Refuge lands is irrelevant.

You don’t need a Supreme Court to interpret the Constitution because you have a gun on your hip and a copy of the Constitution in your pocket.

When you have a gun on your hip, a rifle over your shoulder and a copy of the Constitution in your pocket, you can take over public lands in a remote area that has more cattle than people, even when the people you say you’re trying to assist don’t want you there.

The two ranchers you’re trying to free, peacefully reported for their sentence and repudiated you. The community says it doesn’t agree with what you’re doing and doesn’t want you there. The local sheriff says “go home” and offers safe escort. The Paiute tribe that occupied the land well before any ranchers says “get off our land.” County officials won’t even let you use the fairgrounds for an assembly so you can explain the benefit of your presence.

But you have a gun on your hip, a rifle on your shoulder and a copy of the Constitution in your pocket, so you’ll stay until they understand how much you’re doing for them.
