It's simple. The government needs to give these domestic terrorists an ultimatum: vacate in 24 hours
...or we firebomb the building. They want to play hardball? Time the federal government stop *****footing around and play hardball. We did it in Waco. We can do it in Oregon.

1. No.
Burning people to death who are squatting in an empty building, affecting nothing?
"We" burned children to death in Waco. Is that a good thing?

2. Give them an inch and they'll take a yard.
They're terrorists. Treat 'em as such. These aren't squatters. These are people openly looking to attack the government.
Give 'em an ultimatum. If they don't accept it, well you tried.
If they were terrorists you'd be lecturing us about how they have grievances and cautioning against blowback and then demanding we import 20,000 young men from their homeland without vetting them.

5. The PTB created this situation
when they didn't go after those idiots that pointed guns at the Federal Officers. Someone said they were trying to save lives, course it would have been a lot different if they weren't white.

8. Agreed. It's why they can't back down now.
If they do, they'll keep pushing and pushing until shit really gets real.
9/11 was pretty real and all you assholes did was tell us to stand down.

21. Skip the middle men
Don't militarize the police- just use the military on criminals.
Excuse me, I was looking for a progressive site I visit. I thought it was here but I seem to be mistaken.

23. We're not talking criminals. We're talking terrorists.
Do you think we should kumbaya 'em out? Hell, the only reason they've done this is because we backed down in Nevada and allowed 'em to get the impression we won't take the fight to them.

30. So now we can
Declare certain criminals, who are U.S. citizens on U.S. soil, terrorists? Thereby deny them all Constitutional rights and simply execute the lot?
About that progressive site...

40. How is it denying them their constitutional right?
They're illegally holed up in a federal building.
What is progressive about letting anti-government terrorist organizations get away with their bullshit? What is your solution? Just smile and wave at 'em?

45. Typically
People who break the law are arrested. Then then face trial for their crimes but have rights enumerated in Articles 4-7 of the Bill of Rights, among other rights of the accused. The deprivation of these rights in some high profile cases has led to nation wide protests.
Is there a statute that says 'firebomb people holed up in a building'?
I eould suggest following normal SOP for people who have barricaded themselves in a building. This is hardly the first such incident.

It's weird how the pro-gunners are anti-violence and the anti-gunners are pro-violence, don't you think?

32. I suppose all the Republican a---holes running for president and
Faux News will be there by morning. Hannity will try to incite violence.
Hannity will have to work mighty hard to catch up with your fellow Proglodytes.

35. Once they have been convicted of terrorism, they will lose their gun rights. How delicious!
I say we pipe in some rap music because these assholes are racists, too.
And how do we know they're racist?
BECAUSE THEY'RE WHITE!
