A bunch of peaceful ranchers, pushed to their limits by a grasping federal agency, peacefully protest by occupying a vacant outbuilding, not blocking anyone, and the full force of the Federal government with the active collusion of a Democrat governor, a racist Attorney General and a Marxist racist President, treat them like violent criminals. The actions of the Federal Government are extreme, excessive, racist and unconstitutional. No similar action was taken against the rioters in Baltimore who were black, or the radical leftists who seized Wall Street.
Thanks for that summary; I haven’t been able to find one before.
BTTT
Maybe the next “occupation” should be in a state with an R governor. I’m sure the Govt is overstepping their authority in R states too.
I agree with the ranchers general position and some of your points.
But “peaceful ranchers” dress like peaceful ranchers in western wear. They do not make themselves look militant with some of them wearing camo and having guns. They do not steal cars. They do not damage property.
I talked to a rancher neighbor the other day who is veeeeery conservative. He said they are kooks.
That’s exactly what that mob made themselves out to look like.
My biggest problem with that Oregon mob isn’t just that they made conservative causes look foolish to the general public, but the damage they did to 2nd Amendment rights. It can be used by the left to further attempt to disarm us. There was absolutely no reason for anyone to be armed. If no one was armed, chances of anyone getting killed drops close to zero.
They have a valid cause. Those morons could have had a well planned demonstration, exercising their right to assemble on public land and demonstrate. No weapons of any sort. Set up campers where appropriate for a 3 or 4 day stay, invite the media and explain their position. Then have a well planned organized departure as heroes instead of cowering off getting arrested.
Stage several of these throughout the nation. Many conservatives will then get the message and their plight will then have much more public support. With this type of a demonstration any arrests at all would make the feds the bad guys and a killing would be a martyr.

You forgot that the ‘Sheriff’ is a former BLM employee. He has had a conflict of interest in this from the first jump.
During Bundy Ranch, I was curious why so many conservative talkers avoided the discussion, with the exception of Levin. This time in Burns Oregon, no one has touched it. I'm done wondering why, because I expect I already have the answer. They drone on and on about the circus going on in Iowa and who said what about someone's supposed menstrual problems. I could care less. I actually let my 24/7 membership expire last month and have started listening to Kris Anne Hall. 38 minutes of her show provides more information than hearing 3 hours of caucus, Hillary's crimes syndicate which will never be held accountable, phone calls from little kids to sell books, and Lifelock pitches. It's all smoke & mirrors. As KAH said the other day, we are at March 5, 1770 and 99% of the population is unaware.
