Restauranteer F/U feds

[ClydeCoulter]

I try and convince boards to cooperate.........Sometimes I actually win the argument.:o

People............................No way!

I have been able to lead a group that already had a common goal to success. Of course, I'm talking about large (multi-million line) software projects with 6-10 developers working on it, not some activist projects. So that would be somewhat of a learning curve, for me.

Local sheriff needs to put up barricades . . . to keep the feds out.

The best thing any of us can do is go plunk down a couple of $20 bills for some stew and cake.
Guns will only turn the public against us. If gunplay is to be involved, it needs to be unprovoked on the part of the goon squads.
Nothing gets public sympathy faster than a few martyrs.

Very bad idea.Don't use guns.A much better PR stunt is to provoke them on beating you and catch it on camera.It would have the same effect without dead people.And writing about martyrs on a public forum is a very bad idea.

That would be the very best of outcomes approaches, with local militia support.

I somewhat disagree. What affect has peppered and tear-gassed people had on the population so far?

Like I said, I have no death wish, but I'm not completely opposed to dying for the right cause. The Kent State incident stirred up a lot of people. I'm not sure what the reaction would be today, better or worse.

Time to start another Occupy movement?

Looks like he is getting a lot of support over on facepalm...

Good for him.

Although I expect a SWAT raid is forthcoming.

A 100-year old lady is in non-compliance. This cannot be tolerated ...

Cop's have no problem dealing with centenarians.

LOL - With this mob in AmeriKa these days?

They'd sit around, drink beer and chant USA, as the martyrs were exterminated.

She was a threat to Officer Safety.

For the nay-sayers fearful of guns in a public discussion.

Summery:
One guy went alone. Treated to the joys of a full blown police state.
So the dude brought out the gun owning public who had rifles and ammo, and we were treated as equals. Heck they even avoided harassing us.
Keep in mind, that the pictures don't even show the full number of people there. The media showed up early and took off before the full number became apparent.

The National Park Service owns and operates the building.

On one hand you've got what appears to be a voluntary relationship with the feds gone kablooey (DOH! surprise! GAH! WHAT WERE YOU THINKING!)... on the other hand you've got common sense....

Hard to suggest anyone become a martyr for the former, but I am perfectly okay with buying some food for the later. I'd swing by and feast.

The thing is, IF this is a government "Of, by and for the people", then the government is only caretaker of "Our" land. To "shut it down" is rebellion and treachery.

During this "shut down", I could agree that they may not be able to fund the upkeep and/or security. So, the guy that tried to mow the lawn at the memorial would be a "good citizen" in a sane world.

 

[Warmon]

doesn't it seem like the guy thinks congress is directing the park rangers and not the chief exec?

The guy directing is John Jarvis - Director of the NPS who is an political appointee. His position is that NPS is a system and that all sites that are part of that system are closed. He's doing exactly what boss man is telling him to do thru the Sec of Inferior.
