Any time you have crazy people taking things into their own hands like this there will be death by explosion or gunfire. Luckily, so far they have been ignored by the law enforcement so that makes it a one-way conflict at this point. The reason I say they are "crazy" is because there is a mistaken notion that by owning a gun and being prepared to use it anyone with an opinion contrary to the government or other entity with power or authority is justified. Where could that leave us if lots of these fringe groups decided to "take a stand" with fire power? And there are those who fear outside terror groups who they imagine are ready to storm our shores and shoot up the population. You still have more chance of falling off a ladder and dying. And now, there are wackos emerging to see justice is served by holing themselves up in an out-of-the-way wildlife refuge. I'd like to see them try this with bows and arrows or slingshots. I love how quickly these things start popping up all over the internet, it never takes long: "Tensions continue to mount in Godforsaken, OR.
