Careful when you’re out with your shotgun hunting; you are now a “militia”.
Thats kinda how I see it. An example must be made.
Mark McConnell posted a video to Facebook Wednesday morning, recounting the Tuesday afternoon scene that led to Finicum's death and the subsequent arrest of eight people involved in the Jan. 2 takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge....
McConnell said he noticed movement, and Finicum "took off" in the pickup with the remaining passengers. He said Payne and Cox described encountering a police roadblock about a mile north on the highway and apparently tried to get around it, becoming stuck in the snow.
"When he exited the vehicle, the rear wheels were still spinning," McConnell said. "He charged at law enforcement" and was shot.
McConnell disputed earlier accounts on social media that Finicum was shot while on his knees with his hands up.
Even more sad is that we have sheep like you in this forum.
No sale!
You don’t come across very well at all.
Which actions were those? Putting his hands up? Asking to see the Sheriff?
Do those actions carry a summary death penalty?
There is no accounting for the shooting in an ultimate sense, because there’s no reason to bother these people. They were not harmful, had not harmed, and were committing the awful act of sleeping in a firefighter’s shack.
Why would the law confront them that night and shoot?
My guess is that they were looking for the tiniest provocation that they could hang their hats on, and that when finally pressed they’ll say they “thought X was doing this or that”.
That’s all they need.
They’ll walk, but we’ll continue knowing it was unnecessary.

A few of their concealment techniques:
- Put it high up on a pole
- Include a red indicator light
- Put the word “NOTICE” on the side, along with an icon of radio transmission
- Put the word “SCADA” on the side ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SCADA )
- Put an IP address on the side
Allen Funt would have gone out of business if he practiced these concealment techniques.
Quite a difference in stories, it seems? The link posted does not show a video, that I could see. Video proof of the true encounter might be useful; has there been any posted?
Yes, it should say FALSE. I corrected it in 2 places now, but you know how it is. Once it’s posted, it’s forever. :>)
This girl’s testimony offsets that.
Who is McConnell?
How exactly, pray tell? Not enough ad hominems to suit you?
Don't hold your breath.
Sounds like our fbi to me
The fbi has become little more than a tool for gub mint crappola
Seems they were responsible for numerous criminal acts or cover ups
So proud

Charging the officers. They tend not to look kindly on that.
There used to be a cartoon TV show, King of the Hill. One of the characters, Dale Gribble, saw a government conspiracy behind every bush...but could never figure out that a neighbor was in bed with his wife every day. I found it funny.
Similarly, as you pointed out, the government has very accurate sat cameras, high flying surveillance aircraft, etc at their disposal. And, if the government wants to monitor comings and goings on a road, they probably could do a better job concealing a camera somewhere along it.
Its possible this group of Dale Gribbles was in fact being spied on, as they were taking apart their ‘spy camera’ find.
