Reid calls Bundy supporters ‘domestic terrorists’[W:254:298:850,989]

I see, the bureau of land management needs snipers. How about the iRS? Should they have snipers on the payroll? Maybe the dept of education? I mean, if we're talking about keeping unruly Americans in line, they'd need them right?

It's funny we have more armed forces in some god forsaken American dessert than we do at our diplomatic missions in some god forsaken foreign desert.

Well you can thank your Republican buddies in Congress for refusing to increase the budget to protect American diplomatic missions. Presumably because they don't believe in embassies and missions. I'd arm every Federal agency that has to deal with these loons running around with their camouflage uniforms talking about how picked on they are. Screw them.

Once the discussion gets to a point when people like you question where the terrorist sniper was aiming, ZERO can be accomplished.
Why do militant right-wingers like McVeigh have to do their thing before we say enough is enough?
And I'm sure that Real men, like hockey players, would not be using their wife and boys as shields in a shoot-out with the FEDs .

My husband used to play hockey, semi-pro. He would never use me or our sons as a shield because we wouldn't allow it. So I guess the women in this situation were just too stupid to tell their husbands "no"? Very sexist of you, Nimby. I don't assume women are stupid.

McVeigh isn't the topic of this thread. Harry Reid is.

You've had to remind yourself several times to come back to the OP, tres.

These women don't have rights in militant right-wing groups.
Keep 'em barefoot and pregnant, cowardly righties say in this locale.

How sexist of you not to know this, as you would say.
Women in New England actually have rights, not that you seem to realize why .

Re: Reid calls Bundy supporters ‘domestic terrorists’

IDK if this has already been posted, but: Reid calls Bundy supporters

U.S. Sen. Harry Reid on Thursday called supporters of Bunkerville rancher Cliven Bundy “domestic terrorists” because they defended him against a Bureau of Land Management cattle roundup with guns and put their children in harm’s way.

“Those people who hold themselves out to be patriots are not. They’re nothing more than domestic terrorists,” Reid said during an appearance at a Las Vegas Review-Journal “Hashtags & Headlines” event at the Paris. “… I repeat: what went on up there was domestic terrorism.”

While I don't really agree with the ranchers, I would hardly say that they are domestic terrorists.

Yeah, that's crap. The state dept. testified that budget had no impact on the security decisions in Benghazi.

Yay! Someone who finally wants to talk about Harry Reid and not hockey players, Tim McVeigh, and squatters.

They are not "domestic terrorists" by the very definiton of the word.

Once a person crosses into New England, they notice the Natives are cleaner--slimmer--healthier--smarter.
Since my Father is from the Northernmost NE state and was a Boston everything fan, I know quite a bit of your NE.
Even in retirement, I taught there, and still have tons of family there.

Now for the pukes riding in on horseback to help Bundy, you wouldn't touch them with a 10-foot pole.
Their putrid smells, horrendous looks, XXX social behaviors--wonder how many were meth bikers in their Sunday duds .

Women standing up to their husbands isn't a New England thing, Nimby. It happens all over this country. And there isn't any evidence that the women in the Bundy situation were there against their wills.

I hate Boston everything sports. I'm a native of NJ and am a die hard Giants, Yankees & Rangers fan. Go Rangers!

As far as putrid smells and horrendous looks, next time you're up this way, drive over to Vermont and look around at a lot of the citizens.

That doesn't qualify for "domestic terrorist" according to the FBI:

FBI — Terrorism Definition

18 U.S.C. § 2331 defines "international terrorism" and "domestic terrorism" for purposes of Chapter 113B of the Code, entitled "Terrorism”:

"Domestic terrorism" means activities with the following three characteristics:

■Involve acts dangerous to human life that violate federal or state law;
■Appear intended (i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population; (ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or (iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination. or kidnapping; and
■Occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the U.S.

How about if they kill some Federal law enforcement officials? Would that constitute domestic terrorism?

I think if drones were used to take out domestic terrorists, most of the country would applaud. But hell, if drones bother you so much, I'd be perfectly happy with armored personnel carriers and machine guns.

They aren't domestic terrorists, according to the FBI.

Nobody in their right mind would think the country would applaud if the government started using drones on its own citizens.

Most of these women attached to right wing terrorists do exactly what their men tell them. You know they're stupid because they're hanging around with guys who like to play soldier in the woods and pretend the Jews/Blacks/Mexicans are coming to get them.

Yeah, I know you'd rather have dozens of law enforcement officials killed trying to smack these anarchists down. I wouldn't. Bring on the drones if that's what it takes. But as I said earlier, if it can be done with machine guns with no loss of life to law enforcement folks, I'm fine with that.

Martin Luther King did very much the same thing in Birmingham with the "Childrens Crusade" with kids as young as 8 years old. You should read up on it if your giving lessons.
