Save the hugs for later. This is one of those situations that, no matte what is done, each side will spin for their own benefit.

In the Whiskey Rebellion, by the time the US Army showed up, the rebels decided "hmm, looks like they gonna kick our ass" and peacefully dispersed without a shot fired. To paraphrase Mike Tyson "Everyone has a plan until they have M109A6 Paladin aimed at their face."

Just as in that case, strong, decisive leadership that takes firm, fair, and lawful action is needed. G. Washington, the supreme diplomat general, exhibited just those traits when confronted with this type of insurrection.

Unfortunately, we have Obama.

Well, I just don't think these folks are that bright to disperse. I'd hate to have anyone harmed for a piece of land that essentially has no real value except preservation. If deadly force was ever used, it would give a rally cry to anti government turds across the country. Best way to end it is if all media would essentially stop give these losers a mouth piece.
