Because there were lasers all over them and the cops were shooting as soon as they hit the snow bank.
Cox does not say that there was shooting as soon as they hit the snow bank. She says firing started after Finicum got out.
“How do you know it was before he was shot?”
Seems there is a more total body reaction when shot than just hands moving.
he buckled as well, and no there isn’t always more movement- many folks claim to have not even known they were hit at times- especially in highly tense stressful situaitons- it’s a defense mechanism to cope with stress- this travesty was the very definition of high stress-
Yes you are right, it is the definition of tragedy and excessive force.
I wish I could get someone with good graphic skills to post some of the pictures that are on Facebook. These Patriots met with the FBI on multiple occasions and they didn’t arrest them then. One must ask why did the FBI create this situation, snipers in the trees, drone overhead, etc. There was simply no need. They wanted the outcome they produced.
Excellent article here, http://stocktonssoapbox.com/2016/01/31/lavoy-finicum-the-fbi-and-why-youre-missing-the-point/
Excerpted here “While we bicker over whether or not the shooting was justified, we are all missing the bigger picture here.
Why was there a roadblock set up in the first place? Why was there such a display of force for something that had been peaceful up to this point? When we contrast this protest with the riots in Ferguson or Baltimore, why were they handled so differently? The answer to all these questions are the same; the Federal Government was trying to send a message. This protest wasnât minorities against white cops and police brutality. It was The People versus the Federal Government. This group was traveling to speak to a crowd in another city to spread their message of, abuse of government power. They were exercising their rights to free speech and to peaceably assemble. Last time I checked, those rights are still guaranteed by the constitution.”

There to support the sheriff???
Support the sheriff exactly...how????
With guns????
Not sure if these two idiots realize what kind of trouble they are being paid to be in the middle of.
Frontier justice....boys!!!
The Federal and state governments weren't just going to allow an occupation of a national wildlife refuge (or any federal or state facility) to continue indefinitely. That's the message they wanted to send. The FBI had already drawn up a criminal complaint against the leaders and given it to a judge, although it was being sealed. The people who were stopped were being pretty naive to think that they could just travel 100 miles from the refuge and return and nothing would change.
Once law enforcement saddles up with their high-tech toys, things can get carried away. The remaining leaders can try to fight their arrest in court. Too bad it is too late for LaVoy Finicum.
Victoria Sharp is one strong, brave young lady.

A background article on the county was published by “OregonLive” or “Oregon Public Broadcasting” last month.
It stated 240 federal employees and 750 state and local employees in the county with total employment appearing to be in neighborhood of 2,000.
Only 7,400 hundred or so people live in the county, fifth least populated in the country.
Its economy suffered big when the logging industry was shut down some 40 years or so ago.
