All they have to do is put up a cross.

Over in GD there is a surprising level of love for the federal government and a disturbing number of calls for murderous retaliation--by the US military no less--to the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge takeover. While many have mentioned their white privilege has kept them from being shot on sight; no one has yet proffered their religious privilege as a solution.

All they have to do is put up a cross and the government will give them the land.

1. What are you talking about?

Put up a cross and the government will give them the land?

2. I was sort of being facetious regarding the court's cross-on-public-land decisions.

Particularly Salazar v Buono where a land swap was organized by Congress, in which the property on which the cross stands was transferred to private hands. The property is something like 100 sq ft carved from the middle of wildlife preserve.

The cross on Mt Soledad will in all likelihood go the same way.

3. Yeah, you don't cross the Mormons

even if they're toting guns, breaking the law, and being complete jackasses.

I'd like to see them isolated, instead, their cell phone service shut off and the press kept away. Without all the attention they're getting, they'd leave.
