Sorry to undo the effort of paying a domestic abuser $10 to own this poster, but I am going to lose my dang mind if I keep seeing multiple posters who appear to be Baloogan.

it's p cool that the governor has to beg the fbi to get off their lazy asses and deal with some actual terrorism

too bad their "hide our heads in the sand" plan didn't defuse the terrorist situation

As expected, Pete has decided that the community meeting was a scripted event full of crisis actors. His viewers are eating it up too:

And while the FBI's preparations at the hospital are scary big brother bullshit, the Oath Keepers' triage prep is "in case somebody, you know, breaks a leg, and the hospital's 30 miles away." Okay.

One of these jackasses was blowing that thing one day when Ammon was trying to give a press release. It was hilarious.

Nah, I don't think so. Though don't quote me on that, they already did a doozy on the Captain Moroni thing. The only thing I can really think of is there are a few Mormon hymns that are like sound the trumps of God la la la or whatever, but those are pretty standard church hymn themes. Also you made me watch that with this comment, drat you, and I nearly squirted my drink through my nose.

Oregon Governor is in a press conference now saying this poo poo has gone on too long and needs to stop immediately. She says the Feds need to end this asap

If she was serious, she'd be sending the state police or something to Burns and arresting the militia members next time they went into town. Much like the sheriff, she's just blaming the feds to distract from the state's inaction.

I doubt it. He's probably just trying to make it seem like something is going to go down soon because otherwise his viewers will stop caring. If he presents it as building up to some crisis that's totally around the corner guys no really any day now, he holds their attention for at least an extra week or so.

Also, if she really really wanted to put a hard crackdown, the Governor is legally the Commander in Chief of their respective state's national guard when they aren't under federal control. An actual military crackdown would be an absolute bloodbath though, and terrible terrible optics.

The danger here (beyond the immediate massive bloodshed problem) is that the state national guard is pulled from the state population, and as such is disproportionately likely to have militia sympathizers in its membership.

It's not a line in the sense of the FBI's response, just a matter of personal taste. Personally I don't think anyone should be sending anything. Aka: Don't touch the poop. Don't get yourself involved.

SA members have already gotten propaganda written on shells being fired at Donetsk and Brown Moses is practically an enemy of the state in Russia. This website has gone beyond touching the poop.

Lmao the fuuuuuucking governor said that feds asked her not to comment so it wouldn't escalate the situation. This poo poo is ridiculous.

If these guys all turned out to be FBI plants trying to lure in RW nutjobs from across the nation the first thing I would think would be "well then you should have been a little less obvious about it".

I would imagine a national guard member defecting to the militia or rendering any kind of aid to them if they were called into action would prolly get hammered every which way from Sunday by the courts, doubly so if for some magical hypothetical reason Obama gives a federal mobilization order to the state, if that happened they would get crucified by the military courts. Im pretty sure doing that kind of poo poo gets you shot by your buddies too. So yeah I don't think any one of them would be dumb enough to do that.
