Even if these assholes scurried off and disappeared there is still tens of thousands of dollars in damage/cleanup left behind.

Yep, which will show perfectly, the next time anyone asks, why "the people" can't do wildlife management services, and we instead have a department of interior.

I think my favorite part in all of this is when I called the hotline and got through, then promptly put the open phone in the other room while it charged.

All night long Barb would call out the area code and say "hello?" like 5 times before just going to another line.

I hung it up maybe 7 hours later.

I haven't been following this too closely but i gotta say its come across as pretty impressive how well the feds have managed to handle this so far. If they end up pursuing mostly minor (but still lovely to get hit with) felony convictions rather than going for life in jail domestic terrorism charges or w/e then i think it will be a slam dunk. These guys will ruin their lives and dissuade other people from trying without having anything dramatic enough for tea partiers to rally behind

“I’ll tell you one thing, we’re dang sure going to have to fight this battle over and over if we just give up right today,” Cliven Bundy told CNN during an interview at his Nevada ranch. “I mean, we’ve got a life lost, but that life was wasted.”

A 54-year-old Oregon man allegedly planning to join the militant group occupying the Malheur Wildlife Refuge can be seen threatening to kill sheriff’s deputies in footage posted on Monday by KATU-TV.

Body camera footage shows Joseph Arthur Stetson telling a Harney County deputy, “I’m planning to go out there and protect the Bundys, be their personal guard. If anybody wants to kill them, they have to kill me first.”

The encounter on Monday was filmed at a local market after deputies responded to a report of an armed man on the premises. Stetson was reportedly carrying a pellet gun.

“What concerns me right now, as I’m talking to you, I can smell some alcohol on your breath,” the deputy tells Stetson. Stetson responds by saying that he drank some NyQuil earlier in the day, then refuses to take a field sobriety test.

“I was a colonel in the United States armed forces,” he says. “Green Beret.”

He then reaches into his pocket, only for the deputy to stop him by grabbing his arm before telling him, “You’re making me a little bit nervous right now” and motioning for a colleague to assist in handcuffing Stetson.

As he’s being handcuffed, Stetson says, “I will kill all of you. Don’t believe me? If I go to jail, when I come out, I’ll kill you.”

As the arrest continues, Stetson can be heard speaking more angrily, saying, “I’m a Green Beret colonel, you drat sons of bitches. Freaking Nazi Germany, that’s all you are. I can’t be killed anyway.”

He then yells at a nearby state trooper that he is being subjected to an “illegal arrest” and vowing not to harm state troopers, unlike the deputies.

“I am the last hope,” Stetson yells. “I am a freakin’ colonel, Green Beret. My record is sealed by Ronald Reagan.”

Why is old Ronnie considered such a hero to these people if he went and sealed all of their service records thereby making it look like stolen valor? I'd be pretty pissed if I was a green hatted colonel but couldn't prove it.

No it was sealed because he was a huge badass who did things the loving public would not understand were needed to be done to protect us from the loving ruskies man. Reagan was just protecting a true American hero from the condemnation of an unappreciative public

the funniest thing is that they're free to leave and the FBI's been repeating this nonstop all day. They'll be arrested but it's not like they're going to just execute anyone that comes out there surrendering. These guys are breaking down over a nonexistent threat :lol:

Because if he didn't seal those records, then it would be direct evidence of terrorist actions by the United States against places like Nicaragua, San Salvador, and such, since America supported some lovely loving people like the Contras and Roberto D'Aubuisson that raped and murdered nuns, assassinated bishops, and mined commercial shipping harbors all in the name to prevent the spread of Communism in the Americas.

So, even if he was telling the truth, it would be because it's hiding that he's a really awful war criminal.

The FBI has consistently said they'll only arrest people who have a federal warrant and even said which people those are. Out of the 8 who left yesterday, 3 were arrested and 5 were let go. The feds have even told them who the're going to arrest.

Amazing how the Last Standers went from "we're not leaving unless you meet our original demands" to "we're not leaving unless you don't arrest this last guy" in less than 24 hours. It's like negotiating with 4 year olds. Another 24 hours and they'll be begging for the feds to come in and get them because they're sick of being in time out.

But you won't fool the children of the revolution
