"Militia" takes over Federal Government building in Oregon

Developing story here:

http://www.cnn.com/2016/01/03/us/oregon-wildlife-refuge-protest/index.html

 

 

(CNN)Armed anti-government protesters have taken over a building in a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon, accusing officials of unfairly punishing ranchers who refused to sell their land.

"The militia members broke into the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, in Harney County, Saturday, the Oregonian reported. The size of the group was not immediately clear, but Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy — whose family members reportedly are participating in the occupation — told Oregon Public Broadcasting there were about 150 people people involved.

Others at the scene suggested the crowd was smaller.

In a statement Harney County Sheriff Dave Ward said: “After the peaceful rally was completed today, a group of outside militants drove to the Malheur Wildlife Refuge, where they seized and occupied the refuge headquarters.”

“A collective effort from multiple agencies is currently working on a solution. For the time being please stay away from that area. More information will be provided as it becomes available. Please maintain a peaceful and united front and allow us to work through this situation.”

Bundy family members did not immediately respond to BuzzFeed News’ inquiries.

“We’re going to be staying here for several years. We need you to bring your arms and we need you to come to the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge,” Bundy added later in the video.

In another video posted Saturday night, Ammon Bundy said “the people have been abused long enough” and said people should be allowed to us public land and resources.

Dwight Hammond, Jr., and his son Steven burned 139 acres of federal land in 2001. According to Oregon Public Broadcasting, the ranchers said they lit the fires to fight invasive species, but the government argued they were trying to cover up poaching activities.

In 2015, a judge sentenced both men to five years in prison each. They arescheduled to report to prison Monday.

Federal management of land in the West has rankled many people living in rural parts of the region for years, but the tension exploded onto national headlines in 2014 when Bundy led a standoff against federal rangers.

In recent months, the Bundys have become increasingly vocal supporters of the Hammonds, with repeated calls to action in Bundy newsletters and blog posts. In a statement Saturday, Cliven Bundy urged Steven Hammond to turn himself in to the county jail “for protective custody.” He also said the “United States Justice Department has NO jurisdiction or authority within the State of Oregon.”

On Thursday, in yet another video posted to Facebook Ammon Bundy said “this is a time to stand up.” And in a further video, posted Friday to YouTube, Ammon resisted calls to back down and warned that without action “the blatant violations of the constitution will become the normal.”

According to Willamette Week, the Hammonds hometown of Burns, Oregon, has seen an influx in recent weeks of militia members and supporters.

During Saturday’s events, about 300 people marched through Burns, the Oregonianreported. The protest passed by the Hammonds home at one point, where Dwight and his wife Susan reportedly greeted participants.

“Remember, this is not about me,” Dwight Hammond reportedly said. “It’s about this country."

well its in the "boondocks" in oregon. probably the biggest example of a "muh Privilege" hick rally I have ever seen... and yet these are the types of people who talk sh*t about people who actually need things like government aid (WIC, Food Stamps, ETC) and here they are protesting stupid sh*t about grazing fees (having to pay for their cattle to eat) claiming its supposedly a punishment for not selling their land aswell as the refuge...

 

I think gunning them down would be for the best. plus its justifiable...

Won't happen. These guys are too white.

 

These people are terrorists. Now let's see how it's OK to negotiate with terrorists when they look like you.

So if a group of Arab Americans rocked up to a federal building carrying firearms and took control of the building to protest their treatment by government, they'd be labeled as...what exactly?

Until they kill somebody, injury somebody or blow something up I'm not going to call them terrorists. Not saying what they are doing is right or just, but it isn't terrorism.
