It seems like a huge escalation, and for what? If its the money, then there are people who owe more money but aren't being threatened with military action. If its the desert tortoise--well, the feds killed more of them than anyone.
I just don't see the need for the overt, massive use of force. Hell, we didn't provide this level of support for our diplomatic mission in Benghazi!

Something stinks.
Cliven Bundy has a long history of violent anti-government rhetoric. It was his overt statements that he would give armed resistance to enforcement of the court orders which prompted the BLM to send armed rangers.
It was the amassing of bubba militias that caused them to escalate the size of their force.

I'm baffled why our law-and-order crew here is so adamant about placing this violent and delusional criminal upon a pedestal...

Please don't continue with the BS about the feds killing desert tortoises.... try actually reading the link you posted, and you will hopefully understand what a crock that statement is.

I see you decided not to address the question about armed police officers enforcing court orders on a deadbeat dad.... Why is that?
My take is that you are in favor of armed enforcement, but only on the people you want to see it used on....
