One thing is for sure. They no longer fear us. We have tyranny.

Was he unarmed?

According to the police Finicum had a Ruger 9mm in his left interior coat pocket.

Nice to know the videos are no longer available and I should check back later for updates.

I was treated to a couple of videos though. One about how Kung Fu Panda was made and the other about some dude who is an amazing dog trainer, both videos are by Chase....

If he had his back to them, how did they know he had a gun? How did they know he was armed if they didn’t see a gun in his hand?

One cop was in front of him and one behind. Finicum was know to carry a firearm at all times so it was no stretch to assume he was carrying one when police stopped him.

Why did they not tase him immediately upon exit? He was standing still with his hands straight up.

Police ordered him down on the ground when he left his car and he refused. Things escalated from there.

They shot his wife in the HEAD as she held her baby.

They were threatening NO ONE.

There were others inside.

One can only conclude what they were trying to do...

From what I’ve read, he was not armed. Shot in the back. I think he was simply executed.

Respect the State’s authority or they will kill you. That’s the message, one the world has heard many times before.

The only thing that stuns me is there might be an investigation of the thugcops involved. However, I suspect this is a fake investigation to provide cover (e.g., an excuse to withhold disclosure of some videos and other evidence).

Hands up, I don’t give a _ _ _ _ if you shoot would be a perfect description of this. They shot before he had a chance to surrender. It was an execution plain and simple.

Police have justified killing people for less. Or haven't you been watching the news lately?

Odd, but that is my assessment of most all LEOs I've ever encountered.

Payne, the tactical leader of the occupation, surrendered after a state trooper fired a plastic tipped 40mm pepper spray round that struck the truck's canopy.

At the first stop.

There were a number of freepers who claimed there were no shots fired at the first stop.

Unidentified men, probably dressed in "pretend soldier" suits, shot at Finicum's truck AT THE FIRST STOP.

After prodding, they "identified" themselves as "Oregon state police".

I don't know about you, but MY state police are INSTANTLY identifiable...
