Oregon Gov. Kate Brown has had enough.

Brown publicly vented her frustration Wednesday with the armed group of protesters who've taken over a federal wildlife refuge in Harney County, in the southeastern corner of her state. But she's also fed up with federal officials' response to the occupation and urged them to put an end to it.

"The residents of Harney County have been overlooked and underserved by federal officials' response thus far," Brown said during a news conference. "This spectacle of lawlessness must end. And until Harney County is free of it I will not stop insisting that federal officials enforce the law."

‘... and urged them to put an end to it.’

Lets not mince words. She wants federal LE to use force of arms against them perferably shooting them to death. Would make a great example so others would have pause before being so uppity. Cant have the Little People thinking they can do such things. They really do need to remember their place.

I know he is Governor, but for me, I hardly remember they are there. I only see info about them on here. Maybe the Governor needs to ignore them.

“Brown publicly vented her frustration Wednesday with the armed group of protesters who’ve taken over a federal wildlife refuge in Harney County, in the southeastern corner of her state.”

I will bet that the people who live in Harney County would argue that Harney County is part of “her state.” She’s a gay Leftist. Not the kind of “leader” Harney County would vote for, but she’s there because her predecessor had to resign for corruption and she was appointed to fill his term because she was the Lt. Governor.

Wonder how she felt about the Occupy Wall Street people? Maybe the same, maybe not? Maybe it depends on which side of the political spectrum a person is on?

There is suspicion that things are building behind the scenes on the fed side. Military tents have appeared at the airport.

You can bet that this governor would have no problem with black lives matter groups or occupy wall street groups or gay rights groups occupying any of her cities or buildings.

Would she be frustrated if they were not armed?

See how the 2A changes things!

Funny how THIS spectacle of lawlessness is so unacceptable, but liberal lawlessness is okey-dokey.

I wonder how she felt about Alcatraz, when it was taken over by "armed militants"?

Yup. “All animals are equal, but some animals are more equal than others.”

“The residents of Harney County have been overlooked and underserved by federal officials’ response thus far,”

Fun Fact: Harney County population is less than 1 person per square mile.
