    I think you should start a big colorful thread about Oregon and how much better it is then <Insert ugly state here>! At least then you'd stay on topic ;)

    Kind of like how none of the insurrectionists at our nation’s Capital were conservatives. No way no how was it conservatives.

    Does anyone believe that or is that some kind of straw man? Bundy is an anti-gov nut which is not a conservative or a liberal position.

    Just reminding you the failures of your ideology. Recent numbers have been indicating that those living in Republican dominated states, gave contracted the virus, and died at a rate that is 1.7 times higher than Democratic dominated states, including New York and California. Part of it is due to government action, or lack thereof, part of it is due to people thinking they somehow know better, defending their “rights” or whatever they are hyped up on. People like Ammon Bundy are the reason more people in conservative states are contracting the virus and dying, than in liberal states. Half of conservative men are saying that they are going to refuse to be vaccinated.

    A rather strong strain within the Republican Party is certainly anti government. The sentiment has existed, at least since the fifties. It was brought out in full frontal view with the line Reagan was using on the campaign. That the worse thing one can hear is, I’m from the government and I’m here to help. Is not the Republican Party the party that says it wants to shrink the government so small that it can drown it in a bath tub? The party whose perennial platform has been to cut regulation and taxes, reduce the reach of government. Have you ever listened to Rand Paul or his dad? Their rhetoric is not all that different from what the Bundys have been practicing.

    You are referring to the libertarians not conservatives. Rand and his dad are libertarians who choose to work within the GOP. Gary Johnson ran for president in the libertarian party. His platform rested on two issues, the legalization of all drugs and open borders. These are positions consistent with Bundy but not conservatives. Conservatives do believe in limited government but still understand the vital roles that government needs to play. Bundy rejects the government's role as he calls for such things as defunding the police. Indications are that Bundy goes well beyond the libertarians, embracing the anarchists.

    Antifa are leftist, as much as you people want to deny it, I can sure quote YOUR leaders speaking words of encouragement to them all summer and bailing them out of jail.

    So is your buddy Olivers fake argument a silly game too or is that "different"?

    Same with the BLM and Antifa protestors and any other protestor. Some are just glutens for punishment I guess.

    I don't have to pretend because I know it's true.

    I didn't say it was justification. I pointed out your hypocrisy.

    So quote me, just one post will be fine. Should be easy for you to find several...right?
    I'm sure you "know" many things that are not true.

    I have heard the word coward, nerd and loser used for liberals but never empiricist. If liberals were empiricists they would admit that attractive people are overwhelmingly conservative.

    That's not ironic. If he belongs in prison......off he goes.

    If you play in my yard, you'll play by my rules.
    If Bundy never learned that, then he has a problem.

    I sympathize with him about masks, but some people require them, so I wear them.

    Do you want radicalized Amon Bundy supporters? Because that's how you get radicalized Amon Bundy supporters.

    The idea of demonstrating "balls" by submitting is a non sequitur.

    Or maybe not.
    Submitting to the law demonstrates adulthood and sanity. I'm not sure whether failure to act responsibly in court demonstrates balls or just brain damage.

    Prisons are full of white supremacists. They're already radicalized. Kinda why they're in prison. Bundy would be nothing more than a celebrity.

    Not new prisoners who have no original contact with the ideas. Though point taken.
