Why do regulatory agencies need armed paramilitary? If someone is suspected to be dangerous we have the FBI and local sheriffs...
because there were guys there armed with AR15s, ready to "water the tree of liberty"?

Tioga, and others-
That's why I live where I do and the way I do. I don't have a useless and water-thirsty lawn; I do have a garden, I've had chickens, pigs, and lots of cows, several horses. The house of my nearest neighbor is ~ 1 mile away. But...unlike those who live in a subdivision or apartmenst, I know and respect all my neighbors, and am prepared to help them in any manner they need or ask.
I also had an offer to build a wind farm on my ranch several years ago, but didn't. The visual impact was not at all pleasing to me. We have a "neighborhood agreement" to keep that sort of development out of our scenic valley.

Fluffy: I hope you take a step back once in awhile and laugh at these loons. These issues are just nutcase magnets. Fortunately, they represent a very small segment of society.

Also hilarious: Appalachian Area News.
From their "About us" section:
Appalachia is the cultural region in the Eastern United States that stretches from the Southern Tier of New York State to Northern Alabama, Mississippi, and Georgia.
Historically the center of the first rebellions of the new American Nation, the people of Appalachia are strong willed and determined to effect modern change. Appalachian Area News is a pro-liberty aggregator of important everyday events in the region.
We maintain no religious or political affiliations and do not seek to promote any particular ideology save TRUTH, LIBERTY, AND FREEDOM!
Appalachian Area News is dedicated to the progression of knowledge and ideals through the communication of Pro-Liberty commentary on important current events in the area.
The Appalachian Mountain Region is home of the most notoriously rebellious, pro liberty individuals in the country. Contrary to popular belief, the people of Appalachia are among the most loving, kind, and tolerant people in America.
With a natural rugged individualism and healthy distrust of Government it has been in this region that the seeds of almost every popular revolutionary anti-authoritarian movement in the nations history have been sewn including the abolitionist movements against slavery before the Civil War.
To stress the point once more, WE ARE NOT REPUBLICANS OR DEMOCRATS. It is important to understand that the March Of Tyranny is made with BOTH a LEFT AND A RIGHT FOOT.
This late in the game it is hard for any rational person to imagine how any sort of party loyalism can still exist in this country for it is painfully and factually obvious to all of us that are truly paying attention that BOTH major parties in the United States are completely bought and paid for by the exact same corrupt financial elements and oligarchs that continually further the exact same totalitarian agenda.
It is more understandable and appropriate however to hold traditional liberal or conservative philosophical ideals or to be ‘anti-party establishment’ like pro ‘Tea Party’ on the Right or part of The ‘Occupy’ Movements on the Left.
Still though, even these political permutations rely on establishment moneys and particularly as in the case of the Occupy movement is very susceptible to High Level manipulations.
If Appalachian Area News had to conform in order to elaborate on any political holdings, rather than identify as political atheists we will simply distinguish as being socially liberal and fiscally conservative philosophical libertarians to avoid giving the reader any facetious faculty.
In a simpler notion however, we would like to state that THERE IS ONLY LIBERTY/FREEDOM AND THEN THERE IS EVERYTHING ELSE.
We are committed to enlightening the residents of Appalachia and every where else about the news and politics in our area that matters the MOST to our daily lives as individuals.
As government gets bigger and bigger and personal liberties and freedoms get smaller and smaller, it will be to strong no nonsense people of Appalachia that the nation must look towards to turn things around.
Sadly however, like most of the nation most Appalachian people have been scientifically and systematically dumb-downed, distracted, and indoctrinated to recognize Government as both necessary and legitimate instead of the violent entity it truly is which relies on a monopoly of force and coercion to rob and steal our children’s economic futures.
It is the MISSION of Appalachian Area News to bring the public of Appalachia and the nation news that does not express propaganda sponsored by big government or big corporations in order to further private agendas but news that furthers the agenda of LIBERTY AND FREEDOM.
We provide the important news stories of the day on our site along with our unique commentary and original articles. Also, under our media tab you can find our daily news shows.

Yeah, that's an objective, reliable source.

just a thought but
we can put a 500 pound bomb through your bedroom window within a couple hours
or have SEAL team six knocking at your door
just what good are all these threats to "defend" against the Government?
Don't tread on me. Sounds good, but its not 1776 anymore.

Hey Chuff look at the bigger picture dipsh#t. The status quo of big oil gives us fun times like the little dribble that BP had in the gulf or the one EXXON had in Alaska. Then there is the urban air that can be cut into brown chunks. The negative environmental impact of that whole failed paradigm is infinitely greater than solar and wind farms. When there is a spill at a solar farm it's called a sunny day. Oil spills, not so much.
And by the way you are a pretty crappy shot.

I thought it was about compliance with the law... BINGO.
So wow, is it really stupid for the BLM to try to collect their rent when about $1million is due?
Why did it take so long?
How about due process? The wheels of justice grind exceedingly slowly etc.
Or do you think the BLM should have tossed Bundy in jail the first time he missed a payment?
We'll find out soon enough when Congress has an investigation.
Will heads roll? Likely there'll be a few sacrificial lambs at BLM.
And why are we not surprised that it's the Climate Deniers who are bitching about the possibility of the land being used for a solar power project?
And wow, the bleeding heart Climate Deniers are now concerned about the poor ole Desert Tortoise?
Not to worry, the socialist environmentalists and conservationists will look after him.

Perhaps the Liberal Left doesn't have a monopoly on concern for the environment. Mind blowing, I know.

Seriously? With all the gun huggers out there defending their god given right to break laws.
One of my best friends from high school on is the Game Warden for the DOW . I've ridden with him on Poacher busts. It is part of his job that he may not come home from. Do you think he should approach these armed outlaws with roses and chocolates?
How dare he do his federal duty and impose the law on poachers.

concern for the environment. Tell me how the Climate Change Deniers show their concern for the environment.
Or did the irony go right over your head?

I'm intrigued.
I just sold an 11-87 with a 21" barrel that I used to hit 12 oz. cans @ 60m with about 50-50.
I can't seem to load Chief's photo, but hitting anything with a rifled slug at 150 yards is another story. They slow down and drop quickly.
I'd like to see what Philo, a well known gun troll, can do.

Years ago I worked for the Forrest Circus on a long term environmental study of the long term impact of domestic animal grazing on public wildlands.
Long story short I'll take wind and solar farms.
"Groking Irony" LOL.
