“. I suspect Ruby Ridge did a number on George HW Bush’s numbers in 1992”

I thought that happened in Clintons first term as well?

Photos on KATU dot com. Black SUV with 3 official looking guys in some “swat” type clothing (not sure the actual type) and a big gun of some sort.

No, the standoff and shooting at Ruby Ridge happened on August 21–31, 1992. FWIW the planning for the Waco/Koresh operation began in July ‘92 about six months before Bubba took office.

Nope, that was George HW Bush’s doing. I suspect that is why he never got a 2nd term. Big swathes of the blue collar white population stayed home who might have voted for him. Heck, I was hearing about it in 1996, while driving through some rural areas in the Midwest. As a citified dipshit(TM), it was the first time I had come face to face with this rancor. The cursory news accounts I had previously read, back in 92, referred to it as a shootout between Feds and people who were trying to kill them.

There are only 3 State governors on the west coast. They couldn’t fight a pansy epidemic on their own state grounds.

Well, like I said I was reading a long article. Fox was just background noise for the most part. If they had said word one about Oregon I would have noticed that though. Geraldo’s side comment at the end of Hannity was it. If he heard about it everybody at Fox heard about it and every other network as well. Pathetic!

To: Nextrush; All

A little background on Oregon Governor Kate Brown, who called in the Feds and urged them to squash this legal protest:
She is openly bisexual.
She’s the one who appointed the health commissioners who subsequently passed the edict allowing 15 year olds to get Medicaid-funded tranny surgery without parental notification.
She’s a buddy and backer of Brad Avakian, the bureaucrat behind the harassment of the Christian bakers over the gay wedding cake.

What jumps out from the posted link: Harney County, Oregon is 76 % under Federal control. This fact—assuming it is a fact—lends 100% credence to the protestors’ grievances.

So this is what we have here: a homofascist state governor who is against parental rights and against state’s rights; she is against state control of its own land, and against the private property rights and right to assemble and seek redress, of her own state’s citizens. She is in cahoots with the Feds against her own constituency.

That’s it! That’s the way to protest this.

Get in front of TV cameras and yell “Hands up, Don’t shoot!”

This does 2 things. Rubs mud in the eye of the killers and also rubs mud in the eye of the BLM crew.

Sorry if I’m confused! Does anyone know about the nice lady in this mess, the wife/mother of the 2 Hammond fellows in trouble? There is no reason to arrest her, right?
