Ed Brown was convicted of armed robbery in the 60's, and pardoned by MA governor Michael Dukakis, allowing him to possess firearms.
He and his wife deliberately pulled off a postal money order scheme to hide income they'd have to pay taxes on. It was not a refusal in protest, it was a sneaky scam. They got caught.
He's threatened to kill any LEO who comes to arrest him.
He answers the phone by saying that Ed Brown is dead and he's a representative of god.
The townspeople are sick of this, sick of them, sick of the media, and want the police to end this nonsense now.
The police have shown admirable restraint in not wanting another Ruby Ridge, but they need to stop visitors from bringing them groceries yesterday. And then they need to use judicious, nonlethal force to subdue them, perhaps pepper gas or some other irritant. If Ed Brown comes out and tries to kill LEOs who have not opened fire, they need to respond with deadly force, even though they're trying to avoid that at all costs.
This is nonsense. They're a couple of cuckoo criminals, one who was a convicted armed robber. They're making responsible firearms owners and libertarians look very bad.
Enough.
And Ron Paul, by siding with a violent lawbreaker, has jumped the shark and shown himself to be a kook who has no place in the Oval Office, since the President must maintain the law of the land and uphold the Constitution in all his actions.
