InsurgentsTake Hold of Federal Wildlife Refuge in Oregon

https://www.rt.com/…/327762-armed-bundy-militia-oregon-ran…/ ,http://abcnews.go.com/…/peaceful-protest-oregon-wildlife-re…. I have multiple feelings on this. The obvious point to make is that this goes to show the insurrectionary nature of the hard right in contrast to the dissident left. It seems as if ever since the failed armed resistance of the likes of the Weather Underground , the far left has overwhelmingly come to reject invoking the right of revolution , as we've largely deemed it to be ineffective , if not unethical , especially under current circumstances . Instead we tend to favor such non-violent tactics as set forth by Gene Sharpe http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-12522848 ,http://www.aeinstein.org/…/198-methods-of-nonviolent-action/. With all that being said though , my send response to this is what took so long ? Our nation has suffered under the tyrannical usurpation of secret police power since at least the George W. Bush administration , in regards to both the enaction of the P.A.T.R.I.O.T Acthttps://www.eff.org/issues/patriot-act , and the National Defense Authorization Act https://www.stopndaa.org/aboutndaa/.Plus these pieces of legislation do not merely pose a threat to civil liberty under due process of law , some dissidents have actually been targeted by the federal authorities since then . Namely these left-libertarians /anarchistshttps://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ctdn9xVXSo8. So where were the militias when these anti-government activists in Oregon were being repressed by the Federals ? This is of course a rhetorical question. I imagine that in the event that a Republican is elected to replace Pres. Obama , this Oath Keepers movement will fade away , just as the constitutional militia movement before it https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oath_Keepers ,https://en.m.wikipedia.org/…/Constitutional_militia_movement. The militia movement in the U.S.A. has an obvious ideological bias that is strictly opposed to the perceived excesses of political power coming from the left , and is willfully oblivious , at the least , if not supportive of authoritarianism of the right. This has been my impression , based upon my own personal observations as a libertarian socialist from a Christian right familial background , whom remembers the concerns that militant conservatives of the Patriot movement https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patriot_movement had about then President Bill Clinton . These same supposed opponents to the Federal government did not however seem to be as hostile if at all to the actions of George W. Bush's presidential administration . As a final note , I am aware of an ongoing movement for regional autonomy and freedom in the Pacific Northwest , called Cascadia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/…/Cascadia_(independence_movemen…. And perhaps another civil war might not be inconceivable . However the primary problem I feel that such a revolutionary war would have is that the rebels would be trying to largely recreate the Civil War , and /or the American War of Independence , while the U.S. military machinery would be fighting using technology and tactics out of Star Wars. I seriously feel like I am living in some sort of science fiction dystopia . It's just so unreal , yet happening just the same.
