Blasts Rancher as 'Thumbing His Nose at Authority' Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D – NV) angrily condemned protesters who came out in support of Nevada cattle rancher Cliven Bundy today, dubbing them “domestic terrorists” for supporting Bundy. Reid insisted Bundy “thumbs his nose at authority” and doesn’t recognize the US government, saying it was an issue the US would never let go. He held his biggest criticism back for the protesters, however. “If there were ever an example of people who were domestic violent terrorist wannabes, these are the guys,” Reid said of the protesters, saying they showed up with guns to protest the seizure of Bundy’s cattle. Reid’s comments earned some angry criticism from other lawmakers, including Sen. Dean Heller (R – NV), who said the protesters included veterans and boy scouts, and that he considers them “patriots,” not terrorists, for standing up to the government.

That part may be accurate. Good to see this sentiment in there somewhere.
Who votes for this idiot? How can Reid get away with insulting taxpayers this way? Shouldn't Reid be - at minimum - censured by the Senate for his allegations? Does Reid not understand the phrase "grace and decorum?" He's a freakin' US Senator not a schoolyard bully!
Remember, he's a member of a Very Exclusive Club: 100 members who don't care that some of them are faggots/pedophiles/etc. The Constitution is obviously an impediment to their never-ending greed for ultimate power. We AREN'T members of that 'club', therefore our lamentations and plea's for redress of our grievances against the Senate fall on deaf ears. saying it was an issue the US would never let go.

The U.S. Government will not give up its monopoly on violence. en.wikipedia .org/wiki/Mon...ate_use_of_physical_force The Ukraine cannot tolerate the pro-russian militia groups in Donetsk and other cities for the same reason. The Russians consider the removal of the previous Ukrainian government to be illegitimate for the reason that it was achieved by people acting violently without legitimate state authority for doing so. No national government is willing to give up the Gewaltmonopol des Staates.

Americans who have no experience with, or knowledge of, tyranny believe that only terrorists will experience the unchecked power of the state. They will believe this until it happens to them, or their children, or their friends.
