39. I am also extremely opposed to violence.

The suggestion to bomb them with water is sort of tongue in cheek and would not be to hurt them but to make them very miserable as it is now quite cold in eastern Oregon.

Far better than a direct assault or tear gas or the like.

There would be some risk to the helicopter but minimal direct risk to the militia getting very wet and cold.

I agree with you about the mindset of the militia regards to wanting to incite violence.

Yes it will. These Y'allquida assholes are just children in adult bodies playing dressup OffWithTheirHeads Jan 2016 #1
