    We’re talking about armed militia members hunting federal workers. I don’t think they’d take kindly to the presence of a blue uniform. I’d sooner send in the army and let the good god Darwin sort it out.

    The area is a powder keg and you’re offering a matchstick.

      But the police don’t control the weather to direct hurricanes towards Republicans.

      So let them just go around murdering FEMA workers?

        I’d love to have a simple solution for you that is fault-proof, pleases everyone, and can be explained in a ten-minutes-past-midnight comment. Believe me, I’d love to fix every wrong with society, but I can’t. Evacuation of the workers and letting the situation calm down is probably the best immediate action that results in the fewest lost lives. Again, the situation is fucked because of way too many stupid, aggressive people in the same place, and that’s a problem that can’t be fixed by force.

          The simple solution is to use the police and if there is an open fire fight send in the national guard.

          This is a problem that’s gone too far and while we essentially might have a Waco on our hands there simply isn’t another solution. Either these sovereign citizens stand down or violence will be the result… I don’t know if you’ve seen any of their bullshit on YouTube but some of these fucks are too far gone to reason with and it’s an ideology that inevitably leads to violence. I’d rather it involve law enforcement than regular folks in the area.

          Cool. I’m just wondering how to stop FEMA people being murdered. I’m not concerned with pleasing anyone except their partners and kids when they see them come home in the evening.

        If you’re talking about me, no. I just don’t want anyone to get murdered while trying to help disaster victims.
