As noted elsewhere, the arrests of various Bundynisti will perhaps continue for the foreseeable future as the Federal sieve-siege standoff at the BundyBantustan is in its fourth week. Fluid In-and-Out privileges remain available for Fluffy Unicorn and his Liege Lord, Ammo(ro)n Bundy with his kaishakunin Ryan Bundy and/or Captain Moroni. Until then, sumo challenges among other feudal warrior rituals will continue to be mounted.
A real OccupyMainStreet would probably involve an unarmed mass ‘bagger occupation of the main BLM offices but gun grease, like personal lube is not far from the hearts and minds of RWNJ patriot fantasists. The burning of the rubber prostheses sent to them only signals like any prairie fire, the truly bare-fisted, bear-knuckled fervor of their cause, like ranch activities of punching livestock such as cows and asses. As with the Glenn Beck attempts to replicate the pre-WWII America First rallies, a million ‘baggers have yet to invade DC.
A struggle to the death ensues. However, if one of the two should die, the achievement of self-consciousness fails. Hegel refers to this failure as "abstract negation" not the negation or sublation required. This death is avoided by the agreement, communication of, or subordination to, slavery. In this struggle the Master emerges as Master because he does not fear death since he does not see his identity dependent on life, while the slave out of this fear consents to the slavery. This experience of fear on the part of the slave is crucial, however, in a later moment of the dialectic, where it becomes the prerequisite experience for the slave's further development. en.wikipedia.org/...–slave_dialectic

Rogue Sheriff Glenn Palmer of Grant County has been keeping his powder dry but now welcomes the sharing of the political juice that the Bundystani have held in for so long
BURNS — The armed group holding the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge may find a positive reception from some Grant County officials and residents when occupiers travel to John Day today and hold a meeting. But they'll also have to contend with counter-protesters who feel the militants should stay away.
The meeting, scheduled for 6 p.m. at the John Day Senior Center, would officially mark the public spread of the occupiers' cause beyond Harney County, where they have held the bird sanctuary since Jan. 2 in protest of the federal government's land-use policies and the imprisonment of two local ranchers.
Glenn Palmer, the Grant County sheriff, has met with the militants and endorsed two of their key demands: the dismissal of the FBI from Harney County and the release of Dwight Hammond Jr. and his son, Steven Hammond, from prison. The Hammonds were convicted of arson for starting fires that spread to public land.
Palmer often speaks critically of the federal government and is aligned with the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, a national nonprofit that interprets the Constitution to severely limit federal government powers. He has clashed with the U.S. Forest Service over that agency's management of public land in Grant County.
