Don't pass a law making flag burning a crime. Make a law that states that those who kick the living shit out of the flag burners get a free pass. Problem will fix itself pretty damn fast, IMHO.

Will this kind of thing fade away as we all get busy restoring the idea that we make our own culture and are not victims?

Canada has stricter immigration laws than we do. I would guess there are a few on that list that they would deny entry to. Maybe Mexico would be a better option for them.

That sounds like it would warrant that reaction. Based on what information we know about this particular incident, it doesn't seem like it would warrant that type of reaction. Even reporters were mystified by the U.S. Marshal's response. That being said, I wasn't there nor do I have all of the information.

I don't have all the info, either. But since I worked there, and know the guys there, I have a hard time thinking they just overeacted. And I really don't trust the account written in the paper.

Or, just the fact that they are lawyers and are currently breathing is sufficient grounds to taze them IMO.

That, too. I know some ok lawyers, but there have been more than a few I've been at odds with. They like to think they are important, and don't like it when you don't kiss their ass.

Can you give an example of why you would use a taser on an officer of the court and throw him to the ground?

I can. Let's just say that if a lawyer gets too upset with the proceedings in court, let's their emotions get the better of them, and proceed to charge toward the bench in a threatening manner. You don't approach the bench without permission of the judge. I've personally seen a lawyer get held in contempt by a judge, and we had to physically restrain him and cuff him. This was before we had tasers, but his actions at the time would have led him to get hit with it if we had them.

If he wasn't free then how did he end up in Oregon? Escape from custody? If that's the case then he absolutely should've been arrested.

I'm sure there is more to the story. Like I said, I'm not taking sides but based on what's being reported, something seems off.

He might have been free when he went to Oregon, but after his arrest there, Nevada probably revoked his bond and filed a detainer, which is why the judge was unable to release him after the verdict.

How was he free to begin with then? Bail? Was his bail rescinded? Further, it's incredibly bad practice to throw a lawyer down on the ground, tase and arrest him in the court room when he wasn't being physically confrontational and still speaking to the judge. The charges against the lawyer also seem pretty ridiculous and I'd be surprised if they weren't thrown out.

I'm not on anybody's side here, I'm just curious why the U.S. Marshals felt the need to react the way they did.

He wasn't free. He was in custody. The lawyer was arguing he should be freed, but the court in Nevada has jurisdiction over him now, and they already denied bond in him. I'm not going to get into why they tased him and threw the lawyer down, I wasn't there. But I did start my career in that office, and know the guys who are there, and unless they completely changed, I'm sure there was more to the story than what is being reported.

It looks like Bundy's attorney was tackled by the U.S. Marshals after the acquittal when he asked them for the paperwork of why his client was about to be re-arrested.

Bundy was acquited, but he still has cases going on in Nevada. He was already in custody and was not about to be re-arrested. Even then, there is no legal requirement to show someone an arrest warrant before they are about to be arrested. Here's another article with more info.

I was in Madison, WI over the weekend watching a great game of college football. I would bet that on that campus, the vast majority of the students and faculty are democrats and probably went crazy on their soapboxes denouncing Trump and his words. But the funny thing is, when the 4th quarter of Badger home games starts, they play the song "Jump Around" and everybody goes crazy singing and jumping with it. Yet the lyrics of the song are degrading to women and sing physical violence against women. What a bunch of retarded hypocrites. I guess it's only bad if it happens to the other side.

I don't think even Hillary is stupid enough to do such a visible confiscation of wealth with 401K's.  I see more subtle increase in existing tax rates, and hidden energy "fees" to go towards the phony "reduction of carbon".
She is also talking about higher taxes on guns and ammo.  Like 25% to start.  We may have to pay an annual tax to own guns, based on their value, like a personal property tax.  Also, California like back ground checks and onerous taxes on ammunition.

I have heard people talking about Hillary's health and her dying in office.  Her running mate, Tim Kaine is as bad or worse.  He is a Marxist from way back.

I can see her putting a large tax on ammo and the sale and manfacture of gunpowder. Make it so people can't afford to shoot what firearms they have.

In order not to "offend" anyone, the University of Michigan now requires staff and students to adress others with the pronoun that person wants it to be, with the threat of punishment if they don't. This student decided his pronoun will be "His Majesty". Well played, young man. Well played.

I keep harping on this but the Media, Education, and Government is willingly indoctrinating us to be Progressive, anti American, and docile to government.  Look at many Millennial males.  What do you see?
