There's a disturbing undercurrent manifesting itself in this thread. It's obvious that a few posters have some type of self interest in promoting the prosecutions case, no matter how underhanded the tactics they resort to. I have previously stated this appeared to be a foolish venture on the part of Bundy. After reading all these post a few times I was struck by the parochial sentiments of a select few who claim the participants were outsiders with no business getting involved in local matters. This gave me an insight I'd like to share. I realize how difficult this will be for some, but please try to suspend your disbelief. Imagine an invasion from your coast of a force of bloodthirsty savages intent upon establishing their absolute domination and who murder at will. Think North Koreans hooked up with a million or two illegals. Would you feel that outsiders should ignore this far fetched plight? We're all Americans who fund our Federal Government's excesses which are no different.
