People view him as some crazy. But he wasn't. That's what happens when a government takes away the life and livelihood of men. They make them desperate. They force their hand. They create the very thing that destroys them. They create the insurgent. And then the government stands around in shock and can't comprehend why men would ever do such a thing. Completely without self awareness.

The US government is creating millions of these men. Those men are waiting for the spark to light the funeral pyre. And on that day, many won't be going home. But those that do will rebuild for a better future.

All I know is Marvin Heemeyer did nothing wrong - except perhaps not having this a co-op game.

They're not without self awareness. They know what they're doing.

I had no idea of the background. This man did what he could within the laws and nothing worked. The frustration is so understandable.

He was driven crazy. He was otherwise a highly intelligent, straight shooting, just, honest, generous & hard working man according to that documentary.

I don't consider him crazy. I consider him brave and a hero to his values. What he did was long planned and well thought out - and he again proved the incompetence of the government. They couldn't even stop him despite the extreme disproportionality of resources.

I personally am at a point where I am willing to risk my life to fight my government. But I wouldn't share his... reluctance.
