Lovely.
This just gets worse and worse.
I guess no one was in charge and everyone could just fire at American citizens when they felt like it.
And 70 mph on a highway in rural Oregon isn’t “racing”.
Where is this pistol Finnicum had? Let’s see it.
They didn’t have any stop strips?
Bullshirt.

When they show up, say your prayers.
FBI agents?
NAWWWWWWW
The early video I saw of the shooting appeared to show
Finicum exiting the vehicle with his hands in a surrender
position. - I think they had to shut him up. He was a plain
& simple plainspoken man who had defined exactly WHY he was
doing what he was doing. - The Feds are out of line & getting more so all the time. Finicum had made a video earlier that explained exactly his position.
LEOs lying to protect themselves?
Business as usual.
Maybe the FBI agent thought there was a dog in the car.
Multi-jurisdictional “task forces” go sideways for many reasons, not the least of which is the lack of clear responsibility. Eliminate federal influence and the Sheriff always has the reins. This is important. Local control means actions are tempered by familial and neighborly connections. Fly in an FBI hostage team where there are no hostages and what you have is a hammer in search of a nail.
It’s time to cede so-called federal lands to the states.
The dirty little truth about this incident is that the Democrats decided to use it as a display to Conservatives that their guns won’t protect them.
All they needed was to get one government employee to open fire and everyone would start shooting and then the killing could get going.
A message needed to be sent.
Why do you think they released the video?
“Look at the dead cowboy in the snow.”
So will he spend time in jail like Martha Stewart for the same offense?
That was murder, and attempted murder.
They need to go down. Ten years, at least.
Elite? Shot the truck once, missed another time. (missed a TRUCK) and then said he didn’t shoot.
Elite, yessiree.
Total ambush
Whoa!..is that standard issue in Oregon?
What did Lavoy and his passengers do...rob a bank? Murder some one?
Oh, yeah, the old he was using the truck as a weapon excuse...
The other passengers are extremely lucky to be alive as is seems the JBTs intended to just kill em all.
What a joke of a nation we have become.
Thanks for the post. BTTT.
It is in vain, sir, to extenuate the matter. Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace but there is no peace. The war is actually begun!
The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field!
Why stand we here idle? What is it that gentlemen wish? What would they have? Is life so dear, or peace so sweet, as to be purchased at the price of chains and slavery?
Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!
