PeeDee- you're (wilfully?) ignoring the folks standing with and supporting the Bundy Bunch- the "Oath Keepers" and other right-wing loonie fascist militia and "patriot" groups -heavily armed, by the way - preparing for when Obama declares martial law and starts rounding citizens up & putting them in concentration camps & etc..

Having to deal with these idiots, I'd have sent a sizeable armed contingent, too.

This ain't about turtles. Screw the goddamn tortises-- its about a rich clown repeatedly breaking the law and thinking he's above the law.
