In case you hadn’t realized that progressives are both completely insane and very dangerous. This comment was among the most popular on a Guardian Bundy hit piece.
The Guardian worries about NSA spying, but has no problem with Feds sending a massive paramilitary operation to settle a legal dispute with a 67 year old rancher whose family has been raising cattle on that land for 140 years. Their readers want the military to launch lethal drone attacks on political opponents.

The National Weather Service says December-March was the coldest on record in Chicago.
But NCDC says that December-March temperatures in Illinois were fourth coldest, and not as cold as the winter of 1977-1978. There was a lot more ice on Lake Michigan this spring than there was in 1978 – meaning that either the freezing point of water has changed, or the NCDC data is garbage.
NCDC accomplished this remarkable feat of data destruction through a hockey stick of tampering, which skews 2014 vs. 1978 temperatures by about two degrees.
Rancher raising food on land his family has been using since 1870. Government wants the land.
Government calls rancher a domestic terrorist, and sends storm troopers to liquidate the problem.

King George III speaks before both houses of the British Parliament to discuss growing concern about the rebellion in America, which he viewed as a traitorous action against himself and Great Britain. He began his speech by reading a “Proclamation of Rebellion” and urged Parliament to move quickly to end the revolt and bring order to the colonies.
The king spoke of his belief that “many of these unhappy people may still retain their loyalty, and may be too wise not to see the fatal consequence of this usurpation, and wish to resist it, yet the torrent of violence has been strong enough to compel their acquiescence, till a sufficient force shall appear to support them.” With these words, the king gave Parliament his consent to dispatch troops to use against his own subjects, a notion that his colonists believed impossible.
A tornado which hit St. Louis in 1896, killed 138 people and wrecked 8,500 buildings. CO2 was below 300 PPM at the time.
The Obama strategy is to name everything the exact opposite of what it actually is. When he uses the word “affordable” he means very expensive. When he talks about de-politicizing science, he means making it 100% political. Most open and transparent White House means most opaque.
First Amendment zones means denying people their First Amendment rights. Had he lived in the south in the 1960s and used the same strategy, he would have called the back of the bus a “civil rights zone”
