Digging a hole for Lavoy Finicum. He fought for our freedom from tyranny and they took away his foster kids and compensation. How can a man fight for freedom if they can take away his income from fostering children. It is was his only source of income and labor for his ranch.

Why should ranchers have to purchase their own land and hire their own employees and then have to pay for wages. Wouldn't it be better to steal land for grazing and adopt foster children to work the land? Why not reinstate slavery for the bundy clan since they appear to be terrible ranchers and businessmen.

Obviously these buttholes were just like the miniutemen. What a bunch of heroes. Lol.

One must bury all of his bullE36 M3 with him. It should probably include those 11 foster kids that provided his income. what a great businessman.

Also have to remember that those idiots most likely barely know how to drive a truck much less a Cat.

Some of the last of the "braintrust" are trying to find ways out of the reserve without getting pinched because they don't want to face a Federal indictment.

"The option is you go out there and they get you and it's a felony crime and it's a prison sentence ... A lot of us are scared of that option," said David Fry.

I about fell over laughing. My face seriously hurts.

At this point, I just wish that everyone would just go home, turn out the utilities and leave those idiots alone on a dark and barren plain. Just ignore them until they come running home to their recliners, cable TV, Budweiser and chew.

We will most likely see a challenge to it being illegal in SCOTUS in a year or so. Without DOMA, there really is no compelling legal reason why it should be illegal. The LGBT crowd seem to be the biggest opponents to it for some reason, possibly because the polygamists are using the exact same argument that succeeded in overturning DOMA. It is one of those "Beware of unintended consequences" moments people never think of, but I'm shocked at how quickly the "tolerance" crowd flipped their lids. It was funny watching the chaos for the 2 days before this Oregon crap took everyone back over.

Video of the shooting is out:

What it looks like is that he was trying to get shot with his hands up. He charges out of the car with his hands up (which is pretty strange) then makes the gesture like he is going to pull something out of his waist, the puts his hands back up quickly, twice.

Might have worked better if there wasn't video of it.

In reply to aircooled:

Still would like to see them release all raw video taken of said incidents.....since the Feds want local jurisdictions to do just that all the time.

On a funny note, at least his hands were up at least once.....that makes it more true than Mike Brown.

Video is here:

Jump to 9:20 if you want to skip to where he gets out of the truck.

He flaps his arms between holding them out & up and putting them by his pockets a few times, then reaches into his jacket for a solid couple seconds when a cop runs out of the woods and shoots him.

If I drove away from a traffic stop, tried to drive around a road block, and reached for my pocket, or even looked like I might be reaching, I'd expect to get shot. And I haven't even threatened anyone that I'll die before they arrest me.
There is a point where you antagonize the authorities enough that you need to act even more careful than a regular person.

It seems to be their MO that they expect this groundswelling of support of the masses and are oblivious to the fact that the large majority of people think they are cookoo for cocopuffs.

I still remember when they were going on about having some massive event here in DC with " Millions! " of people and claiming they were going to break down the gates of the whitehouse and drag obama out in the street and a bunch of nonsense. Was kinda concerned about being stuck in DC on that day and the metro impact of a bunch of loons. Literally only saw 2 guys that were obviously here for that on the metro and I dont think their march had more than 100 people.

http://www.westernjournalism.com/millions-expected-coinciding-protests-d-c-bunkerville/ There are better stories out there, but I dont want to spend too long looking.

They really seem romantically fascinated with the notion that they are the only power for good and will use their guns in a standoff with the government similar to Red Dawn standing against an occupation.

And all that even contains is the same questions one might have....no definitive answers. We don't know when they fired, how many times, just the video.

For what it's worth, they did have something like this coming to them, but I am withholding judgement until facts are presented.....which far too many people fail to do in this day & age of instant gratification.
