this is an interesting article the terms the mindset the thought that they are in a war setting that's not interesting it's disturbing. i've been writing about why their republicans and NRA have been arming their crazy's just for things like this and a license to kill so far only Blacks and children but are we next?
even when your cause is unjustified violation of federal law they say they don't recognize is that just so they can violate it and claim innocence?UNKNOWN BUNDY SECURITY LEADER: ...these are things you live by our entire lives. You do not ever leave a man behind on the battlefield. You do not ever turn tail and run in the face of danger. You do not ever leave a man behind to fall into the hands of the enemy and you drive on toward the objective even if you are the last man standing. This is [Oath Keepers leaving Bundy Ranch] is desertion. This is dereliction of duty that was done. Ok. ... Let's put this up to a quick vote. Do we all agree this was desertion?They obeyed a command that is outside of the command structure that they had volunteered to fall under. Which means they don't owe their allegiance to the objectives here because those objectives create a platform that the leadership revolves around ... and If they obey outside leadership that's called being a traitor. (emphasis mine)
Here's when sh*t got real.
One of the 3 heads of Bundy Security Detail, the one whose name I don't know, actually said they, the Oath Keepers, are "lucky you're [Oath Keepers] not getting shot in the back" for deserting Bundy "battlefield."
UNKNOWN BUNDY SECURITY LEADER: ".... but this man and the gentlemen that obeyed that order violated my personal creed. You don't fucking walk in and say "I'm sorry' and you're back in brother. You can walk in and say you're sorry and you're lucky you're not getting shot in the back because that's what happens to deserters on the battlefield."
VOICE IN CROWD: Amen
and hear we are again the evangelical approval of lawless, Godless right wing treason.
WTF?!? "..you're lucky you're not getting shot in the back because that's what happens to deserters on the battlefield."
Yeah, that's classy and Constitutional (snark) ... so long as you toss out Due Process, Right to Trial and all those other pesky parts of the Constitution that prohibit killing a man/woman in the back - in cold blood -- even if that person is deserting on a battlefield.
By the way, shooting a soldier in the back for desertion is not a punishment in the real US Military.
is this the militia you want defending you even in your treasonous they are more of a threat to their own than the gov't, if you wake up and realize how insane what you are doing is and decide no more the guy behind you is you worst gov't boogeyman gone awry. what do they represent surely not the constitution or another's life or the written federal and state and local law, only thing left is republican politics, the same politics you will reap if you vote for them.
