Grab a coffee, because this is soup-to-nuts.

Many people will awaken today to the news of approximately 100 to 150 armed militia taking control of a closed Wildlife Park Headquarters, and not know the full back-story – so here it is:

The short summary is: in an effort to draw attention to a ridiculous arrest of a father and son pair of Oregon Ranchers (“Dwight Lincoln Hammond, Jr., 73, and his son, Steven Dwight Hammond, 46,) who are scheduled to begin five year prison sentences (turning themselves in tomorrow January 4th 2016), three brothers from the Cliven Bundy family and approximately 100/150 (and growing) heavily armed militia (former U.S. service members) have taken control of Malheur Wildlife Refuge Headquarters in the wildlife reserve. They are prepared to stay there indefinitely.

Here’s the long version: including history, details, links video(s) and explanations:

Trump needs to go after this tyrannical BLM property grab. He needs to run this one up the flagpole at every rally - drive those little BLM bastards into the ground. Talk about a conservative patriot campaign issue, here is a huge one. Go get ‘em Trump.

If America is to be saved a revolution must start some where. Maybe, just maybe the turn around will start with something like what these folks are doing. God save us!

Politicians want us to believe politics will solve everything, not acts of rebellion, civil disobedience whatever.....I’m not advocating for a side here, just pointing out that politicians want to control the narrative to make themselves look good.

JFK considered MLK to be a political enemy because civil disobedience was not Kennedy’s plan to deal with racial issues in the US. Kennedy wanted an incremental and slow approach to racial segregation (aka politics).

The people at the Oregon refuge right now have put in a moneky wrench in the politicians control of events and messaging.

This is not a publicity stunt. These families have been trying to stand their ground for years with little acknowledgment from outside.

There are some shades of misguidance and less than articulate spokes people making it to the news feeds. But these are brave people and like our forefathers they are willing to put it all on the line to stand against tyranny.

GOD be with them.

It’s not even that. Too many folks just waiting for the “perfect” time before getting off their asses.

There never will be that time. Ever...

+1000 to what you said.

In another thread I linked to H.R. 4269

https://www.congress.gov/bill/114th-congress/house-bill/4269/text

and suggested people need to call their Congresspeople, and the response is, oh well, it’s probably not gonna pass so why bother? HoHum.

We can’t even be bothered to make phone calls.
We complain about media bias, when they brand constitutional Patriots terrorists while inner city rioters go scott free—but when Patriots are actually being jailed, we just shrug? HoHum, they probably did something to deserve it. This is not the hill to make a stand! Not our problem!
Every. Dang. Time.

The other side is organized and MOBILIZED. Why aren’t we?

The fire wasn’t intentional arson, it was routine brush burning that accidentally got out of control.
Dwight and Steven Ammon were already charged with arson, and sentenced several years ago.
They served that time, and were released. Done!
Now a judge decides they should have been given the maximum sentence!? And sends them back to jail on the same charges for which they’d already served their time !?! Unacceptable!!

These guys are being branded terrorists for being Patriots, that’s what’s going on.

t is 60 miles south of the middle of nowhere
= = = = = = = = = = = =
And yet, the ‘news readers’ will have the populace thinking a T McVay situation is about to happen (Federal Building)

While may be right in claiming a Federal Building, Guess the outhouse behind the cabin is a Federal Building also (of course it is) but not in the context of what ‘they’ are trying to sell.

As to ‘is this the right time’?

Remember back in Asphalt business there was always the issue of when is the right time to let a ‘supervisor’ go.

If you did it in the Fall (after season) the complaint would be you were ruining his Christmas.

If you waited till after Christmas you get ‘I wouldn’t have spent all that money on Christmas had I known I was going to get fired’.

If you ‘carried’ him all winter and let him go prior work startup you ‘denied’ him the opportunity to pursue another job.

If you gave him a ‘second chance’ and had really tired of him in June, you ‘denied’ him the opportunity to send his kids on vacation.

While all the excuses are valid and more than true, ‘we’ just decided when you were to let someone go, make it happen while you are thinking of it, don’t try to reason with him as you are not going to win in the long run, forever known as a ‘plick’....

What I would like to see Trump do is go there, sit down with both sides and make a deal....

Then after tell obuma to take his rainbow hut and bath house and shove it...

This would put Trump right into the Oval Office...

GO.TRUMP.GO!!!
