Those deluded, self-aggrandizing dimbulbs out at the refuge have been promising to go down in a blaze of glory and a hail of bullets rather than let the law take 'em in.

They're probably too chicken to carry out their threats, but still, it may have been wise on the part of the law officers to exercise caution, and make sure some poor toddler didn't get shot out of his grocery-cart seat in the crossfire when they confronted the Rambo wannabee in the store.
