I hope very dearly that this is true. I hope they had no idea other people were leaving.

Full article I took that quote from:

http://www.latimes.com/nation/la-na-sej-oregon-standoff-final-5-20160128-story.html

quote:

Earlier Thursday, the group believed only Sean Anderson faced arrest. But they said in the interviews that a fifth person, whose first name they said is Jake, was arrested after he left early Thursday with the belief that he would not be. By late Thursday morning, the four remaining presumed they would face the same felony charges others have who have been arrested in relation to the nearly month-long occupation.

The FBI has not confirmed the arrest of anyone named Jake in the last 24 hours. In a release late Wednesday, the FBI did not say those remaining would not face arrest, only that law enforcement would “continue to work around the clock to empty the refuge of the armed occupiers in the safest way possible."
I really hope Jake was an FBI mole who just left.

Seriously, it's insane that this is still going on because of FOUR IDIOTS.

The best way to make sure you're not arrested is to repeatedly ignore the FBI telling you to leave and generally make them annoyed at your existence.

OPB obtained audio of a conversation Friday morning from one of the four remaining occupiers of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
The remaining militants inside are David Fry of Blanchester, Ohio, husband and wife Sean and Sandy Anderson of Janesville, Wisconsin, and Jeff Banta of Elko, Nevada.

During the conversation, Sean Anderson said the group is not going to negotiate with the FBI at this time, and they are prepared to wait until all their supplies are depleted.

No. Fry had his stream up as everyone else was leaving after the Bundy's were taken into custody. He proudly proclaimed he would stay and die in a fight as the others packed up and left.

They were all on camera a couple days ago planning their defence of the refuge, so gently caress them if they now think they were left behind.

The issue is that Sean doesn't want to go prison OR die, and he doesn't accept that those are his only two options.

edit: i'm not surprised he got his wife to stick by him, but I can't believe the other two knuckleheads are still there. What is the point?

He surrendered the first night, later in the evening.

Also, he was killed by the Predator.

Yeah, these guys change their story every 5 minutes when the original one no longer works. They were calling the people leaving cowards and proclaiming their desire to die glorious deaths on Night 1. It wasn't until they came down from it and realized that it wasn't going to be quick and easy that they started on the "we want a peaceful resolution, why don't they?" and "where'd everyone go?"

How can they issue a call to action while still being such amazing cowards? Also I think they think PEACEFULLY in all caps is a magic word. Exactly how do they expect to get what they want when the FBI and state troopers laugh in their faces and then say 'now gtfo'? I hope that if anyone shows up, they all go 'oh okay' when that happens, and leave.

No one's going to show up. These puppies have been good and whipped, it's 30 degrees out, and their keyboards don't judge them. Much.

Before the 150 car rollup they would have likely picked up a few dozen, but everyone's been scattered except the Brokesnack Mountain crew, tarpman's dead, and this there's no battle left to join.

So how likely is it that the remaining four will try to frame up their suicides as evil gubment killing them before they could surrender? It seems like the most expedient and deceitful way they can avoid the consequences of their actions so of course they're already trying to convince themselves that's the best option.

None of these chucklefucks are intelligent enough to frame the FBI for their suicides. I'm amazed they remember how to breathe in the morning.
