Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Upon rejecting the Beatles, Dick Rowe told Brian Epstein of the January 1, 1962 audition for Decca, which signed Brian Poole and the Tremeloes instead.

Regardless, they weren't removed from the wildlife refuge they occupied, the place they had holed up with weapons. They were arrested at a road block on the highway after they voluntarily left the refuge.Ain't it like most people, I'm no different. We love to talk on things we don't know about.

Some, including Ammon were arrested by force, on the highway. It's pretty hard to argue against that when one of the people were shot and killed. Where the comparison is appropriate is how the police surrounded the refuge compound after the above event and the people inside were allowed to come surrender under their own circumstances. Even allowing the last holdout to spend 90 on a phone call with a couple conservative radio hosts that did just about everything in their power to push him to shooting himself instead of surrendering. He's probably breathing the biggest sigh of relief.
