I don't think these incidents could ever be prevented fully. I am merely of the mind that these will happen less frequently when the government is afraid of the power of the citizens, and not the other way around. Bundy Ranch comes to mind.

I don't have the answers, I suppose people will always have to be leery of government and take whatever action is necessary to prevent tyranny..just wish there were another way.

Unfortunately I don't see that there is. The best hope we have is that the government would fear the power or an armed populace and will respect our rights in fear of backlash.
