    Any tally of how many reinforcements Vanilla ISIS got in because they weren't cut off from outside contact at the start?

    Aren't there only four people left?

    Sounds to me like law enforcement played it beautifully. By letting them come and go, they were able to arrest the majority of them, including the leaders, at a traffic stop.

    They didn't have to storm the building. They didn't lose any lives. Only one militant was killed. And, now you've got four losers begging to be allowed to leave.

    But Obama didn't show strength.

    So, it was handled "beautifully" and Obama didn't show strength?

    Sure.

    Obama never shows strength. Why would anyone expect it in this case?

    I don't know the intricacies of how this was handled, but restraint is often the greatest sign of strength.

    Sure. Can be.

    Seems like it was the right move in this case.

    Because the FBI has the right to turn off people's internet for protesting?

    They are just simply protesting?

    Umm, NO. For committing crimes and using guns to illegally seize and occupy a federal building. For "protesting"? What a profoundly idiotic statement.

    You should probably vacate your post at the border and get up to Oregon. They need a mind like yours.
