    So for instance, the guys at the Battle of Samar were cowards because they committed suicide?

    I had briefly forgotten(but now I remember thanks to your post) about that stupid event. The same losers who clogged up NY, vandalized other people's vehicles and homes and in the end didn't even have a real platform on their site? Those losers? Strangely enough, the media didn't call them out like the false TP hysteria. Remember when TP'ers were compared to terrorists, and the speculation was rabid that a "tea party terrorist' might've been the cause of the Towns Square car bomb?(Despite the fact that NY is a liberal bastion).

    I remembered it, and it was yet another deciding factor in not being a Liberal. Who accuses fellow Americans of attacking their own country? Apparently the Left does.

    It's freaking open range. But the internationalist socialist want fences.

    BTW: Your photo comes from a left wing source, the Democrat Underground, they also want fences except on our borders.

    So in layman terms you are saying end affirmative action when it comes to hiring cops.

    I totally concur.

    Either brave or stupid. Depending on whether the guy is sane or mentally disturbed.

    Yeah we are seeing who the real enemy is: people with guns.

    I know exactly what they mean, but that's not what's in question here. You equated terrorists with the US military. That was stupid and thus the reason for my reply.

    When you break federal law, you're looking for trouble. When you surround yourself with white supremacists, you're looking for trouble.

    Of course not. All those kids that Christian right-winger murdered were not armed to the teeth and able to fight back.

    Been watching CNN while reading posts, the anchor in question just a few minutes ago stated that she misspoke and does not see the gunmans actions courageous or brave.

    How do you know the link's intent if it didn't open for you? I think your reasoning is a as fail as your computer. The link opened for me.

    "Cliven Bundy, whose family homesteaded his ranch in 1877 and who accuses the government of a 'land grab,' are digging in for a fight and say they will not willingly sell their grazing privileges to create another preserve."

    It's PUBLIC LAND not the federal governments land. Travel to the Mojave Desert in California and look at the federal government land grab. You are heavily restricted from traveling on your (public) land. Where ever you go you find locked gates preventing you to travel over your land. They even have fences today !!!

    When I was a SBCO Deputy in 1978 there were over two dozen cattle ranchers in the Mojave Desert of San Bernardino County, Ca. Today there are only three. And the BLM have plans for the last remaining three ranchers who have been grazing their cattle on this land going back to the late 1860's. The ranchers were there before the federal government.

    Liberals hate the words, "Open Range." They want to turn all of the deserts into solar and wind farms owned and operated by international owned corporations.

    Everything a progressive tortoise lover needs to know about the long fight between Cliven Bundy and the federal government

    Only a liberal like you would equate a murdering lunatic with and battle in WWII. Suicide by cop is not bravery

    It's not a necessary element of bravery, it's a necessary element of bravery that people want to celebrate. The "nobility of purpose" is entirely relative and so are the things that each person or culture may consider to be brave.

    That said, please don't think I'm trying to glorify or defend the man this thread is about.

    Exactly. Liberals in America are becoming more and more like ISIS, and they will stop at nothing to achieve their ideology. How our nation has gotten to the point of liberals defending the shooting of our police is beyond me, but it does validate my term "loony liberal"

    Don't view suicide by cop as brave. View this guy as a whack job.

    You mean the ones in Baltimore and Chicago killing police? Yes, the vast majority are liberals with a cause

    What does Reagan have to do with shooting police?

    Bundy was just working the land that nature provided, like his ancestors before him. I wouldn't call that "looking for trouble".

    "Once again" I come to the aid of yet another liberal? Quote what I have posted in the past that you are referring to. Who do you think I am? Which party do you think I'm loyal to? Sounds like you don't know (*)(*)(*)(*) about me, but just ASSume a lot.

    Nope, nothing in that definition about "nobility of purpose" or any other (*)(*)(*)(*) that people want to read in to it to justify outrage.

    You wanna talk about 1776, start a new topic.

    Reread, this time for comprehension. If you still don't understand what I said, move on, I'm not going to waste my time clarifying something so clear.
