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."

The entire state is run by a tiny sliver of utterly mad liberal degenerates. The view of Salem is that the rest of the state are only worker bees to keep Salem and Portland flush with cash and grocery store shelves filled.

22 cowboys camping out in “public” refuge making needed repairs without permission cannot be tolerated. Vanquish them! :-)

“The entire state is run by a tiny sliver of utterly mad liberal degenerates.”

Yes, and if you look at most states today, you will see a similar picture. The near term “salvation” of some states is that the rural areas still have the politcal power. San Francisco hasn’t a leg up on Portland for being a nutball place. All large cities have become the province of the RATs, and it’s even worse where the leaders are Black RATs (who have the added mantra of thinking that stealing from Whitey is justifiable as payback for slavery and all the “injustice their people have endured”). The people who live in the cities have come to “expect” governmental largesse, and the RATs have obliged with the earnings of the productive people who don’t live there. I am just hoping that somehow the decent, hard-working, productive citizens have finally had a belly full of this crap.

Oregon 95,997 sq mi. (Harney County, 10,135 sq mi.)(Delaware 1,954 sq mi.)

Oregon Federal acreage 32,614,185

Oregon Total acreage 61,598,720

Percent of Oregon land Federally owned 52.9%

I think Oregon voters chose poorly.

This Governor is happy to have Big Brother governing more of the State of Oregon than she, the lawfully elected governor of the State of Oregon.

She the supreme magistrate of Oregon is in control of only 47.1% of the state she was elected to govern.

And this governor is more than happy to have citizens of her state deprived of their rightfully owned lands. She is happy to have more and more of Oregon land appropriated by the Federal leviathan.

Seems to me she is a pretender.

Lars Larson did a great harangue on LibPols ignoring Occupy and others while they did millions in damage right under their noses, and now pretend to give a rat’s ass about anything in eastern Oregon.
