In reply to the discussion: SHOCKER: Paranoid Militia Nuts Start Suspecting Each Other, Kick 'Oathkeepers' Out. [View all]erpowers
(9,446 posts)12. Cowards Scared of the Military
Are these guys just a bunch of people who are afraid of the military, but want to play soldier? They love to used military terminology, but how many of them have actually been in the military? Much of what they said did not apply to the Bundy Ranch. The Bundy Ranch is neither a battlefield or a kill zone. In addition, considering at least some of them wanted to use women and children as defense barriers they do not seem like the military type.
Furthermore, how much of the Bundy Ranch stuff is about ego and not wanting to share the spotlight for these militia groups. Throughout much of the video I felt the guy in the black shirt with the Gatorade bottle wanted to stroke his ego and be the center of attention.

How long before they start shooting each other, or turn against their master Cliven?

First if I were in charge of that group, that conversation would have never been recorded.
