Or even worse, what if it was some poor person using food stamps to buy a stick of gum … now there is a capital offense!

Well that’s what Sovereign Citizens and Libertarians have in common: hatred / distrust of the government. The problem for Libertarians is the cognitive dissonance they suffer from wanting to be in charge of the very thing they proclaim to hate.

A man is judged by the company he keeps. Be careful, Randy, who you get in bed with.

Charlie Pierce five minute rule violation. The five minutes of making sense were not to be had on this one.

It has been 1 year, 2 months, and 25 days since Bundy and his crew faced down federal law enforcement officers at gun point while hiding behind human shields. Why is this man still roaming free?

Yep. That about fits. Two peas from the same gimmy-tarian pod.
Too late for that.
Blind ‘self-certifiying’ the blind. FIFY

Is Randy goin’ to tell us 'bout the Negro, too?
So… what would happen if a Democratic Presidential candidate met with, oh, I dunno’… say the head of the… what would the head of a minority group afoul of the Federal government relying on armed militiamen to keep from being arrested? A Cartel? A Mafioso? A Target?
Rand can’t write Nevada off. He’s down in IA and NH. Any of the 19 GOP candidates that doesn’t win one of the early primary states is out.
Some enterprising reporter ought to ask Senator Paul whether he has plans to sit down for a discussion with the BLM personnel charged with enforcing the laws of the United States.

If Rand is meeting him, Bundy is either monetarily supporting him (hmmm) or he’s going after the sovereign citizen vote, which will also be a net loss in donations, because those morons are too busy buying guns. They don’t even seem to have jobs.
Of course, there is also the possibility that all are well-paid whores of the gun makers and shakers.

Would be an interesting debate question.
I don’t understand why Bundy is not in federal prison.
Seriously, this is ridiculous.

“I don’t think he really understands how land rights really work in the western United States,” the rancher told Politico. “I was happy to be able to sort of teach him.”
Pretty sure neither of these two know how land rights work in the western United States.
He also said that during their 45-minute meeting Paul brought up work by the American Lands Council, which litigates federal lands back into states’ control, an approach Bundy opposes: “We are already a sovereign state. … It’s already state land.”
Pretty sure it doesn’t matter how it works if he’s allowed to keep doing what he wants when he wants and how he wants with no repercussions.

They sure can. It’s called a levy. You wake up one fine morning and find you bank account is now zero. I hate it when that happens.

“But Politico reported on Tuesday that Bundy said he met privately with Paul to talk states’ rights on Monday after an event in Nevada.”
So Rand Paul supports criminal deadbeats. Interesting.

Does Rand Paul know he’s running for President?
