Oregon governor: Refuge takeover 'intolerable', costing taxpayers $100K per week
Breitbart/UPI ^ | Jan 20, 2016 | staff

Posted on 01/20/2016 5:40:12 PM PST by bkopto

The governor of Oregon on Wednesday expressed further disdain for the small militia that's occupied a federal bird sanctuary in the southern part of the state for two and-a-half weeks now.

Gov. Kate Brown called the group's occupation of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge in Harney County "intolerable" and criticized federal authorities' handling of the takeover.

The militia, led by Ammon Bundy, has been holed up on the federal land for 19 days and has refused numerous orders to leave.

"This spectacle of lawlessness must end," Brown said. "This situation is absolutely intolerable and it must be resolved immediately."

The governor is a bisexual.

Wonder if she, and the rest of the bloodthirsty leftist critics of Bundy, are okay with Eric Holder's armed takeover of the ROTC office at Columbia Univ. in 1970? Hypocrites.

So guv, are you gonna order your national guard into a firefight? Waco 2.0?

They’re itching for it. Which is why they sent the ecoterrorists in.

What is intolerable is the governor’s and eco-Nazi’s hysterical reaction.

And how exactly is 100k per week being spent?

They don’t have to do anything but let the ranchers be.

Sort of what they want in general, I think.

Selective outrage, BIG TIME.

I'll show you a "spectacle of lawlessness" that costs the American taxpayer a LOT more than $100k/week:

What's costing $100K a week, guarding a building taken over by a bunch of guys that aren't doing anything? Only a moron democrat couldn't figure out that if they pull the guards and ignore the situation you not only save the damn money but you take away the reason for the guys to stay in the building, news coverage.

And as for the lawlessness having to stop, I agree, let's get rid of the worst offenders first, the politicians.

"We have a Democrat complaining about spending money."

Laughable, isn't it.. Reminds me of Bammy's b!tching about COST when making his argument for closing Gitmo. Right after he comes back from his multi-million dollar vacation.

Well, if the bi-sexual governor would just ignore the “takeover”, it wouldn’t cost a dime-—and no harm would be done.

Amazing that this corrupt gov’t will spend more energy on Americans and forcing them into double-jeopardy, than on 100,000 armed muzzie terrorists that they import!

$100,000 is nothing compared to what it costs to house, feed, and let these migrant roaches reproduce on our dime.

This wouldn’t cost the government anything if it just ignored the protest. All they needed to do was tell the already paid for park ranger to keep an eye on things run a tab on any damages and clean up costs and send them the bill.

I find it a bit unusual that the feds don't seem to be all that interested in arresting these people.

And unless I've missed something, it doesn't seem like the power company is in a hurry to get its video surveillance cameras back. I wonder why.

This dyke’s man hatred meter must be at 11 with all the rugged men with guns and cowboy hats running around.
