Wasn't it a thing after 9/11 that New Yorkers were mostly resilient in the face of danger that happened in their backyard, while rednecks in Nowhere, Nebraska were the ones freaking out about scary mooslims invading our nations and destroying our way of life?

Dwight Hammond, clearly stirred by the support, told the crowd, "Remember, this is not about me. It's about this country." The marchers cheered.

He kept up a banter with one protester after another, leaning towards one to say, "I'm no angel."

This story's great.

quote:

Cliven Bundy, the Nevada rancher who stood down federal agents last year, urged the Hammonds to turn themselves in at the county jail and stay there. He wrote a letter Friday urging Harney County Sheriff Dave Ward to put the men in protective custody while investigating how it was that the Hammonds had been charged.

When Cliven Bundy says you need to ease up a bit...

quote:

But while Cliven Bundy's notion went nowhere, one from Ammon Bundy did. He arrived at the protest to hand out rolls of pennies.

As the marchers reached the courthouse, they tossed hundreds of pennies at the locked door. The idea, militiamen said, was that civilians were "buying back" their government to serve the people. But the message didn't last long. Two young girls swooped in after the march passed on to scavenge the pennies.

:lol:


The best way for this to end is if the police directly take down these fucks, not anyone in the federal government. Then it'll be more amusing to see how the right-wing defends this.

And why do these militia dickbags always have to show the federal government how tough they are by attacking the most innocuous types of federal buildings (the National Wildlife Refuge? Really guys?) I'd love to see these fucks try and attack an FBI or CIA compound.

Ryan Payne, a U.S. Army veteran from Montana, confirmed that he is among the those occupying the refuge headquarters but refused to provide details. He said additional information will be released to militia media outlets.

Members from Oregon, Idaho and elsewhere had converged on this ranching town in recent weeks to make the federal government the target of their anger. They came to protest and perhaps even block the imprisonment of Dwight Hammond Jr. and his son Steven, local ranchers convicted of arson.

Pennies In Protest Marchers pause outside the entrance to the Harney County Sheriff's Office to toss pennies. The coins were meant to symbolize citizens buying back their government With their side arms and sometimes hot talk, militia members had unsettled the community, creating fears that Saturday's rally would involve more than speeches, flags and marching.

But the message didn't last long. Two young girls swooped in after the march passed on to scavenge the pennies. Protesters reached the Hammond home a few blocks later. Dwight and his son have said they would report to federal prison Monday as scheduled to serve their sentences.
--
Marchers carried signs supporting the Hammonds, attacking the government, and urging citizens to act. They marched along in relative silence, conversing quietly among themselves. Besides the conversational tones, the only sound was the crunch of hundreds of feet on the icy streets of Burns.

The prostesters started staging mid-morning Saturday as the temperature worked to recover from an overnight reading of minus 15. As the grocer's parking lot filled, protesters strayed across the street to stand outside a funeral home. The operator asked them to clear the property because a family was coming in. Militia organizers ushered the trespassers back to the grocery parking lot.

They waited for the arrival of additional militiamen – a convoy of maybe 40 vehicles that had trekked 100 miles or so from Bend to join the cause. And as if they were starting a sporting event, organizers launched into the National Anthem, joined by most in the crowd. Several had handguns on their hips, advised by organizers to be lawful about how they carried them.

From the start, one element was obvious for not being present. No sheriff's deputy or state trooper ever appeared.

They know they'd get loving murdered if they attacked an organization that's willing to hit them back.

And I'm not even joking when I say that so much of this sounds like exactly like ISIL; that second to last paragraph in particular is indistinguishable from a paragraph about an ISIL convoy.

I'd be amazed if the police did a goddamned thing except wait for them to get bored and ring them up on evasion or whatever charges when they do come in.

Cut the power and encourage supporters to surround them so they feel pressured to stay there and freeze to death. Aren't these ranchers big welfare queens like the corn growers are?

Maybe they'll accidentally set the place on fire burning some personnel records for warmth. I just hope they don't get into the firearms cache required to be buried in all federal offices by the Agenda 21 Act of 2015.

Yeah, this is bullshit. I'm literally one of the top people on my field at what I do with open ended job offerings at a ton of top firms and chose the place that I'm at now not because they paid the most money but because I was sick of having to work 50-60 hours a week salaried because that's just what's expected from everyone in the industry.

It use to be that I would gently caress around on the Internet (mostly here but also 600 hours a year on civ 5) every day for 3-4 hours because I knew I would be putting in 10 hours a day, but now I'm only reading/posting at lunch and am much more productive and a hell of a lot happier.

I was roommates with a dude from Wyoming when I was in the Army and he had literally never met a black person before getting to basic training and he had a full undergrad in English or something. Dude also had an SS tattoo on his arm and really admired the fashion sense of the Nazi soldiers, but was pretty good about not being outwardly racist.

Being from the south, I had a hard time understanding how someone could have never met a black person in over twenty years. Doesn't explain the dude in that video, but being from the norther flyover states can lead to some serious isolation.
