These people had harmed absolutely nobody.
Waco II
Insane!
are you saying it was a ‘hands up don’t shoot’ scenario?
FBI ambush with witnesses saying he was out of his car without a weapon and they murdered HIM....
THE UNDERLYING ISSUE IS THAT UNDER THE CONSTITUTION THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT HAS NO RIGHT TO LAND AFTER A TERRITORY BECOMES A STATE AND THAT HE ONLY LEGAL AUTHORITY IN SUCH A CONFRONTATION IS THE LOCAL SHERIFF....
PLUS BLM AND THECURRENT ADMINISTRATION INCLDUING OBAMA ND HILLARY ARE SELLING THE MINERAL ASSETS TO FOREIGN CORPORATIONS... CASE IN POINT URANIUM ONE WHO ANT THE LOAND THE PROTESTERS ARE DEFENDING....
I wish they would litigate this and get a SC ruling to stop these confrontations.
“law enforcement stopped two cars carrying standoff leaders on their way from the refuge to a meeting in Grant County”
Was it a trap?
One of the Bundy brothers had been livening in Emmett, ID for one time before this...where I live.
The Bundy’s and others were trying to drive to John Day Oregon this evening when they were stopped by the FBI and the Oregon Highway Patrol.
Gunfire ensued...with some reports indicating that the Feds initiated the shooting while Lavoy Finicum, who was shot, was trying to negotiate a surrender, but that is confirmed.
Both Bundys were taken into custody,. LaVoy Finicum, was killed and another member of the group wounded.
This happened about 15 miles from the refuge.
I am wondering what motivated them to try and drive to John Day? Were they on back roads? Were they trying to avoid a larger confrontation? I heard that they were going to a another meeting there.
Time will tell.
So, where’s the Media? No breathless reporters “raising questions” about a protester dying at the hands of “militarized” law enforcement? Where’s Obama? Where’s Megyn Kelly?

God bless that American patriot, damn this government.
I agree Waco Redux. The Government will justify the death as necessary. The sheep will continue in the bonds and the Tyranny will march on—unchanged. So long as the slaves have bread —and circuses the Pax Romana will hold.We lived a long time a nation of free men but have chosen to die by suicide.
The Occupy Wall Street movement occupied govt lands with impunity.
These guys were treated with force that led to killing.
Double standard?
This is as important as Waco
As important as the ranch standoff
More important than the campaign
The feds just killed a guy for protesting their ownership of federal land.
The protesters had hurt no one; they hadn’t even inconvenienced anyone.
He charged the police officers. There are two eye witnesses in the convoy that made that clear.
“Hands up” my ***”
Why didn’t the government do this to the Occupy people?
Much more at The Oregonian, which has been covering from the beginning.

They were on the way to a public meeting as they had done a few times before to discuss the situation with the locals.
Feds and State police pulled them over to arrest them.
None of us should ever forget this. Remember this the next time you see black criminals looting, burning, spitting in law enforcer’s faces and being given “room to destroy.” Where were all the people that “supported” these ranchers?
Especially for somebody over 70yrs.
Obama is way too silent
