Travis posted some lines from Raub’s FB page yesterday:
3) I am standing against a great evil. I will do it all by myself if I have to. 8/4/12
5) This is the part where I tell the Federal Government to go **** [db edit] itself. This is the part where I tell Generals, training our young men to fight Americans, I am coming for you. The Veterans will be with me. 8/9/12
6) I’m starting the Revolution. I’m done waiting. 8/10/12
7) Sharpen up my axe; I’m here to sever heads. 8/13/12
