He's got a support group of men in similar situations as he is but they spend most of their time drinking and denouncing the matriarchy.

The desecration of Lavoy's site today has me heart broken. What has our Country come to when it's ok to destroy a memorial for a life lost?

Today at 1pm, we will convoy back to the site to pay respects... The material items lost are not the point of the site. They were only a symbol. Nothing changes within ourselves and our ability to grief for a life lost needlessly...

Honor, respect, dignity....the moral high ground will always be maintained.

The Governments murdered LaVoy Finicum in Political execution. Listen Patriots, Constitution ENFOR (enemy forces) have Burns Oregon under full out martial law. The people of Burns have to go through checkpoints and often patted down.

I need 400 men to cordon off the cordons (roadblocks) with 100 troops BEHIND each roadblock to cordon off each the cordons about 4 clicks behind each roadblock.

If you care and have the guts to restore Liberty sign up for this mission and spread the word to all units across the Republic.

Acknowledge.

We might save the lives of four of the bravest Patriots in America. And, liberate the People of Burns from a most heinous form of tyranny since our last World superpower empire Government and the Redcoats.

I would like to see four Militia commanders pull One Hundred men or more each and contact me back by 0800 MST tomorrow morning. Nobody should deploy until we have the committed numbers to make this Op succeed, at which point I will provide a safe secure rendezvous point for the force, which will not be provided until we have established the required number of operators.

The rendezvous point shall be in a location with a Constitutional Sheriff who supports and Defends our cause and our Ninth and Tenth Amendment supreme laws of the land and who will have our six.

By the grace of our almighty God, Freedom may be saved and restored.

LaVoy is watching.

From an article about how the locals are responding to the occupation:

quote:

A group of local people on Facebook was discussing how to voice their support for law enforcement, said Melissa Alfstad, one of the group's members. They decided that a billboard would be a good way to do that.

When one of them called Meadow Outdoor, the company offered to put up two billboards for free, Alfstad said.

One of the billboards reads "Our heroes making Harney County proud" next to a picture of officers in front of the Harney County Sheriff's Office. The other billboard reads "We are Harney County We have our own voice."

At a cost of about $400 per billboard per month, the company will keep the signs up until the occupation is over, said Chris Zukin, general manager.

Hmmm, isn't the spelling "klicks" more common in the military, since it's short for kilometer?

I mean, it's more of a spoken-word expression so I could see even an ex-mil spelling it wrong because they don't commonly see it in print, but that spelling just jumps out at me as hinky.

Googling Karl P.Koenigs leads to a whole rabbit warren of insanity.

He's written an article called "What would Davy Crockett Say?" in which he calls for the violent liberation of Wisconsin which was handed out at NRA rallys, is a Birther and does the right wing radio rounds calling for an "American Spring" uprising and describes himself as "self trained military."

It may shock you to know he also has set up a bunch of gofundme's and run off with the money each time. Including for something called "Operation Impenetrable Wall"

If I'm reading this right, his plan is to get a hundred men behind each roadblock(cordon) in order to outflank and take them over, because roadblocks(cordons) don't work both ways or anything. In order to execute this plan, he puts it up on social media, making it clear to anyone watching a) what his plan is and 2) that he doesn't have the manpower to carry it out yet. "Anyone" includes the FBI, which doesn't have to use social media for their super-top-double-secret plans and can outright order agents and state troopers to secure the roadblocks(cordons).

I don't think anyone's made fun of his drug abuse. It's the boneheaded retard gene that plagues his family that people are mocking. You went through all the torture of years to get clean, then gently caress up because you skip some court dates because "gently caress the state". Then get busted for running an illegal business on federal land which just happens to be the family trade with the other assholes.
