Yeah, I believe the guy digging the poo poo trench's qualifications were 'one time I used a bobcat to pave my driveway'. They were trying to make defensive berms because they expected the FBI to charge the compound in Redcoat-style waves in broad daylight. IIRC they only managed to start and run the backhoe once or twice, because it turns out it takes a trained equipment operator responsible grownup to run such a piece of equipment in January.

Considering how subsidized and rapidly niche the cattle/beef market is becoming (esp the free range cattle these ranchers raise), I'm super content in supporting a tortoise over them.

Like, it would cost me money to murder all the tortoises, then it would cost me money to pay these yahoos to raise their cattle, then they bring it to market at $15/lb for the cheapest cuts? Lol no thanx

Finicum was a dead man from the moment they got pulled over. The only question was how long it was gonna take and who else he was gonna take with him. He wanted to die a martyr, and with the weapons he carried on him, he always had the means to make it happen. I'm just glad he didn't shoot anyone or get anyone killed in the crossfire.

He wasn't crazy, at least not in the sense that you mean. He had a plan, a stupid, stupid plan, and he acted to implement it. He wanted to be the spark that lit the fuse, but the cops were pretty determined to not kill him, and they only did so when he literally forced their hand.

At the end of the road was a mess hall outfitted with an upside-down American flag. Nearly a dozen militants were out back chatting, gathered around a small wood fire. A few feet away others dug through a box of mail, throwing items, mainly sex toys, into an oil drum fire. One held up a large white cardboard cutout of a cock and balls, saying of the flag and eagle drawing on it, “At least it’s patriotic,” before feeding it to the flames. Another militiaman walked by with a black butt plug adorned with googly eyes, saying, “I didn’t even know what this was before someone told me,” as he sacrificed it. We were handed a fake plastic turd as a memento.

The mood started to curdle. “Mama Bear,” one of at least a half-dozen women present, repeatedly warned she didn’t want any reporting “to put us in danger.” She specifically asked us not to mention the barrel of flaming dildos. It is unclear how knowledge of that would put them at risk for anything more than internet ridicule.
