Random Politics & Religion #02

MORTAL KOMBAT!!lol, kidding.

So, a while back, about three and a half months ago, Ammon Bundy and his buddies got it into their heads they were going to seize a federally managed bird sanctuary.
As we all know now, things quickly went south for them.

One of their number, namely LaVoy Finicum, got shot and killed by Oregon State Police, while the rest were arrested. Heck, even Cliven Bundy stupidly flew out to Oregon to support his son and in doing so, left the relative safety of his "ranch" compound and armed guards, allowing the FBI to finally apprehend him so the feds can try him for his 2014 stand-off against Bureau of Land Management officers who had been sent by the courts to impound his cattle herd.

As it turns out, things have gone from bad to worse for Bundy's supporters now. Some of them began phoning in and posting social media death threats to federal officials and agents, meaning the FBI's started tracing the calls and messages back to their sources, and the feds are saying they still aren't yet done making arrests in this matter. Meanwhile, the main judge in the trials against the Bundy Brigade (as I call these morons now), has ruled that not a single one of them can be allowed out of prison. They all await trial without bond.

What's everyone else's take on this?

No reason to bodyslam a 12 year old girl that weighs 40 pounds, cop deserved to be fired.

Well all regular posters here kinda have their own special move..

Pleebo: grabs the attention of all the conservatives in the room allowing other liberals to post whathever they want freely.
Ravael: levels all arguments from all sides to the most moderate denominator making them all ineffective.
Sparthosky: confuses enemies with excessive sarcasm.
KN: stalls arguments by asking for citations of everything, even of personal opinions, sometimes even his own!
Zahrah: regrets everything.
Saevel: the soviets! THE SOVIETS!!
Spicy: self-destructs to take out an opponent too.
Jet: forces everyone to focus on semantics causing the debate to be forgotten entirely.
Chanti: posts long stories that no one bothers to read, but everyone bothers to comment.
Amandarius: uses the lowest quality bait he can think of hoping nobody notices.
Ramyrez: digressions that cause all points to be lost.
Altima: gives everyone a collective headache.

I'm sorry I didn't include everyone. But this is your time to shine and to show a special move of your own!

From a police officer in a unisex stall too I am sure.

You guys didn't even make it past the first page w/o a report >_>

Was tempted to actually enforce it since I was excluded from the list. Although I don't really come in here much to have a thing, except maybe coming in here to rain on your parades.

Anyhow, it's just a small joke stop crying.

public shaming is a good thing. I'm with the mennonite.

did she assault the officer?

I bet the mod team would deal with a helluva lot less reports.

One would think but it would probably embolden the chronic reporters. Sock accounts associated to sock emails would rise as a way of circumnavigation unless of course they implement a method of tracing the connected up when the button is pressed. It's already present in some respects I.e the ip logs that show the device address everytime someone logs onto the site in their account profile.

Personally, I feel that the cop, as a grown man, was in the wrong regardless of what the girl did. Excessive force is excessive force.
Then we need to take into account the following:
White cop, black teenager angle. He should've also been more aware of how his actions would be dissected and gone through afterwards.
