No need to ascribe motivations to the killers. They themselves made their motivations abundantly clear. You seem quite defensive when it comes to Bundy while denying that the right-wing noise machine has any impact upon these impressionable miscreants.

You do realize that the GOP's senate candidate in Nevada (Sharon Angle) a few years back spoke out in favor of "Second Amendment Solution," eh?"

Well, you're wound up this morning (it is still morning on the left coast) but do you have anything more rational to add to this discussion than shouting "BULLSHIT"?

I'm not ascribing anything to them. Just observing facts. If they don't advocate overthrow of the government, they shouldn't unite under a revolutionary flag and kill police officers. If they want to pledge allegiance to the flag of the United States they should fly the flag of the United States. If they do not advocate the stock piling of weapons, they should stop doing so, and stop opposing any effort to enact reasonable gun control.

It turns out when you continually call for revolution, some of your followers take you seriously. Who'd a thunk it?

Scary thing is, they pointed guns at Federal agents and the government did back down. Kind of a bad precedent to set.

It has been reported that this was perceived by them as the first victory in the war against government.

I'm not sure history won't prove them right. What happened there is kind of amazing. First time I can think of that someone broke the law, pointed guns at the "good guys", and got away with it. Bundy and his followers should be in prison.

I agree with you! The Tea Party stands for bullshit!

Oh, was that an unfair reading of your post? Well perhaps, but a 'fair' reading of it is no better. Screaming BULLSHIT isn't much of an argument, old bean....

I'll give it a shot. Teabaggers are a bunch of undereducated, angry, resentful and impressionable older white folks who listen to Talk Radio and Fox News and feel threatened by the inexorable changes in our society. In short, they are (or were) the GOP's useful idiots. Now the inmates want to take over the asylum.
