SlipUp posted:So what was the purpose of these fires these three ranchers set? Were they actually terroristic (is that even a word.) or is that an over reach? They wanted to clear weeds/juniper on the land to allow for cattle grazing. It was loving stupid and they had the book thrown at them to drive home a message.

Abner Cadaver II posted:For anyone wondering: the unincorporated community of Voltage is definitely not cool enough to deserve that name. quote:Voltage post office was established in 1908 by Walter C. Botsford, the first postmaster, who was interested in electricity and thought that the river could generate enough "voltage" to serve the entire Harney Valley.[3] He had confused voltage with power; a hydropower project was never attempted. lol There's a local law enforcement press conference happening at 3 PST apparently.

Did anybody post this yet? http://www.motherjones.com/politics/2016/01/ammon-bundy-oregon-protest-sba-loan quote:Ammon Bundy runs a Phoenix-based company called Valet Fleet Services LLC, which specializes in repairing and maintaining fleets of semitrucks throughout Arizona. On April 15, 2010—Tax Day, as it happens—Bundy's business borrowed $530,000 through a Small Business Administration loan guarantee program. The available public record does not indicate what the loan was used for or whether it was repaid. The SBA website notes that this loan guarantee was issued under a program "to aid small businesses which are unable to obtain financing in the private credit marketplace." The government estimated that this subsidy could cost taxpayers $22,419. Bundy did not respond to an email request for comment about the SBA loan.
