Actually, they are committing false imprisonment, which is highly illegal. My opinion is that the Feds should just move in and mop up.
It's false imprisonment either way, but have they actually "arrested" anyone?
Concerns growing about militia members at Bundy ranch - 8 News NOW
So like I said in other topics about this developing story, its gone beyond the unpaid fees for gazing on Federal land and turned into a question of whether or not we are going to allow an active insurgency to operate within this country.
Also, is it more ironic or sad that these folks who claim to want freedom are acting in exactly the manner of an authoritarian?
If they are stopping people at gunpoint, that is false imprisonment, whether or not they arrest anybody.
If they want to stand up for ranchers' rights then it should be those whose land is being seized by eminnent domain for the Keystone XL, not some deadbeat who refuses to pay his bills.Its hard to rally behind a deadbeat.
I'm aware of that, I was just wondering how far they had gone.
Of course I figure if they actually seized someone then someone would have to do something about them.

Unfortunately most of the keystone xl supporters and those similar to them don't give two ****s about property rights. What is also unfortunate is those who claim to care about property rights stop caring about property rights the moment big oil or big business sticks their butt cheeks in the air to be smooched, regardless if big oil or big business is American or foreign owned.Yup, in Nebraska, the government went ahead and stole a rancher's land from him without due process.
In all seriousness, if they stopped me, I would shoot them. I call on all residents so affected in that area to likewise take up arms and respell these 'militia'.Concerns growing about militia members at Bundy ranch - 8 News NOW

Busy bombing brown people in countries we have no business being in, of course, just like Bush.Where's Obama's drone when you need it?
God I hope the Guard is called up over this. Please dear God put Bundy's 'militia' in my sights, I'm a damn good shot.The cowboys and Indians are fighting on the same side.......
"...Both groups are threatened by the Keystone proposal. Native Americans say that the State Department has failed to consult them about the risks of running the pipeline near their lands and holy places such as burial grounds. And in Canada, First Nations near the tar sands in Alberta oppose the exploitation of the area, citing local health and environmental hazards.
Ranchers, meanwhile, are having their land confiscated under eminent domain in order to get the pipeline built. The cowboys and Indians have come together, Thomas-Muller told Grist, because “rural landowners are being treated like Native Americans.” That is to say, their land is being stolen and despoiled...."
Their land is getting confiscated and the government hasn't even approved the project yet.
This stinks to high heaven.

The 1st amendment doesn't let you stop people on public roads, and so the 1st amendment doesn't apply.lol Easy there, Jerry. Nobody needs to get shot over this as long as we still have the first amendment...and the rule of law.
