Note that Fish and Wildlife Service had a pretty good working relationship with 30 other ranchers near the refuge.

Has anyone noticed that there is pretty much no news on the occupation? There have been stories but there really is not a lot of activity. Law enforcement has not taken advantage of numerous opportunities to make arrests. A couple days ago I read an article that put forth the idea that one reason that these buffoons have not been arrested in Burns is that there are a hundred or more armed badass nutjobs in town just hoping for a reason to have a shootout. These thugs are members of other militias and white supremacists who have been intimidating local area residents and seem to be here to be provocative. Another reason for restraint was that arresting Bundy might remove the only person who can keep things calm out at the refuge. There have been a number of open letters from groups who support the refuge published on the web condemning the occupation and the lack of any response by the FBI or other law enforcement and cataloging how valuable the refuge and public lands are. Two brothers started a fund that has raised more than $50,000 so far for organizations that the Bundys will hate. This was posted on facebook this evening by a guy named Les Zaitz who has been at the refuge observing what is going on: quote:He describes himself on facebook as Investigations editor (managing producer/watchdog) at The Oregonian. .

Yeah, but it's not every day you get a barrel of flaming dildos. At first, I read that as a "barrel of flamingos" which isn't nearly as funny. ABE: Wow, my 1000th post. Do I get a prize?

Community meeting cancelled due to safety concerns. The town continues to be held ransom by armed cowards, Harney County Community Meeting Canceled Citing Public Safety
This is a good discussion of how the Bundy Bubbas are misusing the U.S. Constitution mixed with "natural law," Mormonism, and Christianity as justification for their unlawful activities. Amazingly they are supported by a few elected representatives, but they are not convincing many voters.

The state police arrest another dimwit on his way to join the Bundy Bubbas so he can "kill federal agents." This is in Hines, a suburb of Burns. It is actually funny to watch, in a sad way. The guy claims to be a Green Beret colonel who's records were sealed by Reagan.
OSP Contact with subject at Hines Market - 1-25-2016 ***WARNING -Graphic Language*** The story is taking on a life of its own. If claims in the story are even partially true, Oregon is becoming ground zero for a much larger revolution against the United States and has been secretly occupied by a much larger force who want to use firearms to achieve their bizarre goals. Bundys escalating showdown with feds as support dwindles and lone wolves come looking for trouble quote: quote: quote: This is really garbled. The Harney County Committee of Safety was formed before the occupation began but seems to now disagree with the criminals. The Burns Fire Chief, who recently resigned seems to be a member of this self-appointed group.

The group was apparently ambushed on their way to a community meeting in the town of John Day with Grant County Sheriff Glen Palmer and other citizens, who were planning on telling them to leave Actually, the Grant County sheriff, Glen Palmer is a supporter of the Bundys as is the Baker County Sheriff Travis Ash. Ash is also a posse comitatus wingnut.What if Eleanor Roosevelt had wings? -- Monty Python One important characteristic of a theory is that is has survived repeated attempts to falsify it.

One great aspect to this whole circus is a bunch of radical gun nuts have voluntarily given up their right to own firearms for the rest of their lives....not just nuts, but stupid nuts.

This could turn out to be a win-win. The FBI gets to experiment with different tactics dealing with real domestic anti-government terrorists (or zombie apocalypse) and build a more detailed list of all these nutjobs. The next time they try to buy a legal firearm, shahzam, they fail the background check, the next time they want to fly, shahzam, no fly list. Next time they want a government handout, shahzam, sorry no money for you. etc., etc.

Which raises the question whether they can legally posses weapons. If they are convicted felons I would think not. A silver lining. As long as they don't let them plea-bargain their way out of this. Hopefully they will be charged with more than they have been arrested on.

What will be most interesting to me is, once the feds clear out the buildings and confiscate what the traitors left behind, what are they going to do with the dildos, personal lubricants and penis gummies?

To me it looks like the militia "movement" is just an excuse to walk around with big guns and play war games, looking for some excuse to create a standoff but in the end not achieving a single thing of note. Protest over Finicum death rolls through Burns3% of Idaho planning a protest in Burns on Monday What would really be ironic is a shoot out between the gun nuts waving the American flag and those waving confederate flag.

The one positive result from the standoff is that more than $100,000 has been raised for causes that the Bundyites and Bubbas hate.
