Threatening to wage war? What else does that mean...
Edit: did a little more research and found no direct threats just the ranch war comment. While inflammatory when backed by many armed people isn't the same thing. Sorry Eric
That was the point I was trying to make, while the MSM sure made it sound like it was an army of militia guys ready for war that wasn't the reality. Yes some militia guys showed up looking for a fight, they where sent home. Honestly they where way more passive and peaceful then I expected, especially when confronting the BLM. Sure they stood their ground and didn't back down but they didn't go looking for a fight.

I don't know about that, Eric. I saw a few video clips where some of them looked pretty antagonistic... not to mention the nimrod that was pointing his AR while looking through his scope. Not a good look for a so called peaceful protest.

Can you give me a link to those videos? I honestly haven't seen any of them being antagonistic towards the BLM. I saw plenty of people that where not there making videos about it, and some of them suggesting a fight was coming.
I'll run a ugoogly when I get home tonight. 2 images stand out to me when that whole thing went down. One was a group of three or four people confronting BLM officers. The other was a picture of some dude crouching down looking through his scope, aiming it at something.
Vice on HBO did a story on it last year if you can find the video.
Part of the story were about a couple that took part in the protest. A few weeks later they murdered two cops in Vegas.

I remember those two. Pretty sure they were kicked out of the camp because they were the ISIS of the group.

Yup that's the one guy we have a picture of, it's usually him crouching over. Like I said no one's ever claimed to know who he was. The entire group that marched towards the BLM marched unarmed with weapons holstered.

Still quite inflammatory though legal.

Unless the entire group literally had no arms that is quite impossible.

The picture that DragonFury linked doesn't show him "aiming" at anything. He is simply using his scope as a "set of binoculars". He is not in firing position at all.

If that's what you choose to believe, jagibelieve...

um he's basically got his legs straight back and his finger not even near the trigger, a firing position his legs would be in more of an upside down Y shape and he'd be steadying his rifle with his other hand, not to mention the finger on the trigger.

my bad, weapons holstered not unarmed.
Quote:exactly it's almost as if they want an us against the world situation. While I didn't agree with all of the occupy wall streets bullet points, those protest (outside of Oakland) where much more effective and got their point across.
You mean like class warfare? No....no one would ever want that to promote their agenda. We humans are not that shallow; never.

Still, I was taught you should NEVER point a gun at someone unless you're prepared to fire. And I was taught that by someone who very much owns guns.

The last sentence is my point. If that tea bagger wanted to have a better view, bring binoculars.
Obviously the idiot didn't shoot anyone. But the whole thing looked antagonistic...
Imagine if occupy wall street did that. Or how bout one of the back lives matter protesters...

The Black Lives matters protesters actually fired at the police? And Occupy Wall Street burned parts of Oakland?

Isn't that what they call themselves? Has that name fallen out of favor?
