The most efficient way for us to do this is for each one of us to try & imagine what it is like inside of the patriot mind.
#Oregonstandoff
For example a sovereign citizen refers to the gubmint as "unconstitutional". Because... Lincoln was cockroach.
#Oregonstandoff
[Gonzo aside] What the fuck are these people talking about? You gotta be crazy to think the 14th amendment enslaved us.
#Oregonstandoff
You will notice that I have distinguished four, four distinct states of crazy in the patriot for sovereign citizen movement.
#Oregonstandoff
They are "constitutional sheriffs", "citizen grand juries", "militia" and "cosplaytriots"
#Oregonstandoff
Seldom, if ever, does one aspire to be a #cosplaytriot.
[Gonzo aside] What a fucking nightmare!
#Oregonstandoff
If he figures out there is "tyranny", then he can rise one notch and tear up his driver's "license."
#Oregonstandoff
and then... if he can convince himself to approve of what Alex Jones is selling, then he becomes a "survivalist".
#Oregonstandoff
And then, after that, he can actually raise himself to the rank of "#ammosexual". He can become one of those..."militiamen."

Dr.Bumquist, do you think nutjob Randy Weaver's strange behavior cld be explained by a fundamentalist apocalyptic worldview?
#Oregonstandoff
[Gonzo aside] Good question!
I'm not really sure. Maybe google can answer that for you.
#Oregonstandoff
But what I can tell you sir is if Randy Weaver, under a tarp, joined these crazies... we'd have one hell of a standoff!
#Oregonstandoff
While I'm cracking myself up with this #mashup this is a real and scary movement. Almost everything above is close to truth. #Oregonstandoff
