Did Buckland resist the ruffians like Tookland ? - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

We know from "The Scouring of the Shire" that the Tooks resisted Sharkey's ruffians, effectively turning the Tookland into a "no go area" for them.

Would Buckland have resisted in the same way ? The only piece of information we have is Gandalf's statement that the 4 returning hobbits "might even have more trouble at the Buckland Gate than they think".
