Feds Confiscate Guns in Flathead Valley With 30 Vehicles, Three Tanks, and Helicopter
Montana Daily Gazette ^ | March 15, 2021 | PUBLISHER

Posted on 03/16/2021 4:38:24 PM PDT by Norski

Heretofore ignored by the legacy press and mainstream media, in February, federal authorities invaded a neighborhood in the Flathead Valley with militarized police and terrorized its occupants with what appears to be Waco-level tyrannical overreach.

In 1992, a federal siege occurred in Boundary County, Idaho, at a location known as Ruby Ridge. The eleven-day siege lasted from August 21-31 and resulted in the deaths of one U.S. Marshall, and the wife and son of Randy Weaver, the target of the siege. This event captured the attention of the nation. To secure the land around this seven-person home composed of three adults and four children, the federal government saw fit to send in hundreds of federal agents, as well as associated vehicles and air support. . .

. . .The reasons for the siege are not pertinent here, but the fact is many lessons were learned as a result. Those lessons revolved around Rules of Engagement, the use of force, and other legal concerns. One would have hoped the lessons would be applied in future encounters, but in 1993 the same FBI Hostage Rescue Team commander took part in the siege and raid of the Branch Davidian compound in Waco, Texas. After fifty-one days, the compound was breached and seventy-five people were killed, including twenty-five children. Nearly thirty years after Ruby Ridge, it seems that the only real lesson federal agencies applied from Ruby Ridge and Waco is that they needed to do a better job of keeping their activities out of the eyes of the public. Why? Because a similar event occurred in Western Montana on February 2, 2021, and it’s likely you’ve not heard anything about it.

In the early Tuesday morning hours, motion sensors alerted the occupant . . ."

Hmm. Would check with Constitutionalists.

Possibly Posse Comitatus. (sp)

Ruby Ridge and Waco led to Oklahoma City.
I believe this is the government’s intended goal.

Just as predicted these past months, raids like this will become the norm and little public attention will be received...

It is a control strategy based on fear that has worked for the Marxists wherever they have ascended to power (for example; Germany, Russia, China, Cuba, Venezuela, etc...etc...)...

No reason to expect things to be any different here...
The tyrannical nastiness is just beginning...
The really bad stuff is a few months away...

The American sheeple have adopted the convenient & cowardly strategy of:
Bow down!... Obey!... Snitch!...
Oh yes... They also hold out their hands and beg for more $1200 checks

Designed to scare and intimidate the locals keeping them cowed down in fear of the same thing happening to them.

"...the reasons are not pertinent..."

Yes, they very much are. Are these known terrorists, are they felons, are their arrest warrants pending, are they on probation? Lots of facts do matter!

More intimidation techniques.

They are letting us know what they will do to those who will not comply.

Their success is going to be by picking us off, one at a time and destroying our lives in the process.

Posse Comitatus is long for “posse” which is the ability of law enforcement to deputize citizens.

Posse Comitatus prohibits the military from performing police duties in the US.

Feds using military equipment is not a violation of posse comitatus and same applies when feds are enforcing federal law.

Feds can take control of a sheriff’s office, but if the governor says NO then the sheriff should not assist the feds.

In states where the governor can dismiss a sheriff this could happen and the feds can’t “appoint” a sheriff - the sheriff says NO and refuses to cooperate, and if the feds try to use force against same, the governor can callup militia to oppose the feds involved.

Please go to site and read complete article, and then quote and address items in same, for the edification of lazy persons not so doing.

Yes, reasons are often pertinent.
No argument. Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Believe this should also be posted nationally, but have hands full at the moment. Perhaps someone else might desire to post.

Dear federal Thugs, I will NEVER Vote Guilty in any TRIAL if you are involved. With that being said, NOTHING prevents the Sheriff from Filing Criminal Charges against the thugs that committed this violent home invasion and Kidnapping. The Governor is Obligated to issue a Warrat

Have faith in God.

Acts 5:29

“Then Peter and the other apostles answered and said, We ought to obey God rather than men.”

Matthew 10:28

“And fear not them which kill the body, but are not able to kill the soul: but rather fear him which is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”

Luke 12:4

“And I say unto you my friends, Be not afraid of them that kill the body, and after that have no more that they can do.”

2 Timothy 1:7

“For God hath not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind.”

At the rate the feds are going, you could start an entire news network doing nothing but reporting on this over-the-top behavior.

On second thought, I'm going to show why it is most pertinent. Look at what feminism, The Violence Against Women Act (VAWA) and the Lautenberg Amendment to that Act brought you during the 1990s.

"What provoked this Montana this raid? Doe’s former girlfriend from North Carolina filed a restraining order (a civil matter, not criminal) against Doe in that state claiming he was homicidal, suicidal, a threat to her, and had bomb-making materials with the intention to cause harm. She also claimed he had booby traps all over the home and the surrounding property. But none of this was true."

You deserve every consequence of bad government that you allow by agreeing with feminists and spreading conspiracy theories and other lies against conservative political action and votes (e.g., the Georgia runoff elections, which had been won already but without the 50% majorities). Have fun. Enjoy the slide.
