A ton of libertarians are making very good points, and deservedly calling out the admin for their terrible stances. The "conservative" position is that if you're carrying a gun and magazines, you're a terrorist. If you film feds, you're a terrorist. If you interact with feds while armed, you deserve to die.
I see a lot of people drawing comparisons between this and Ruby Ridge, or the Bundy standoff. You can say the admin is just misspeaking, but it's still troubling seeing so many conservatives getting on board with speech that would justify the execution of the Bundy boys and the like.
You can be anti-leftist, anti-agitator, anti-communist...and also against the government lying about an American they just killed.
A ton of conservatives are being absolutely fucking retarded.
The Admin response, particularly Kash's, has been embarrassing. All they had to do is come out and say, "he was killed in the commission of a federal felony assault on an officer while impeding law enforcement operations. We will investigate the situation but initial reports show that the officers' response was reasonable given the situation that Pretti and the rioters in general have created."
I'm prepared for my downvotes.

Yup.
Even if you don't agree with the statement, it's a much more defensible/reasonable, and much less retarded stance by a mile.
