These guys are certified bozos.

This reminds me of the friend in the '60s who told me of a meeting where the attendees took a vote to decide whether to be a Communist cell or a field office of the FBI.

Just suppose these moron pulled it off. The first one of them to go down with a head shot, you can be sure the others would immediately shit their pants.

From the previous thread - after the “citizens arrest” what were they going to do? Hand over the governor to some sheriff to incarcerate her until what exactly happens?

In Trumpspeak, “confidential human sources” are called “rats”. I bet it won’t be long before Trump himself confirms it.

If these idiots had any brains, they would not be in the “Militia Movement” anyway.

Proof that you can cure ignorance with education, but you can’t cure stupid.

Dead serious subject, but the more I read, the more I was chuckling.

Another thought, how much collateral information developed on other groups and individuals. Suspect there are some points of panic elsewhere today.

They couldn’t brief Barr any earlier. He would have tipped the numbnuts off.
