    Giving them concessions because you’re afraid they’ll act badly tells them to act badly when they want concessions.

    The right course of action is to make acting badly (like participating in a coup, or engaging in political violence or threats of it) have painful consequences.

      Whatever happened to not negotiating with terrorists? These people are terrorists. If they break the law, charge them for their crimes.

        They’re all domestic terrorists, they admitted as much at CPAC; I have no idea why anyone is willing to negotiate or even take them at their word.
