The standoff at the Oregon Wildlife refuge was a huge poke in the eye to the federal government, and they are determined to exact their pound of flesh, and more. The retribution began when federal agents set up a road block and forced one of the key rancher spokesmen out of his truck and then murdered him in cold blood as he tried to heave through the deep snow bank. Next was arresting Cliven Bundy, who had proven to be a thorn in their side back in 2014 when there was previous standoff at his ranch in Nevada.
The feds, however, need to have a massive show of strength to put down the rebellion once and for all. There is deep anger and mistrust among the westerners who see the federal government gobbling up the western territory where Washington owns 51 percent of all the land in eleven western states. In fact, Barack Obama just today declared an additional two million acres in California to be federal reserve land, off limits to the citizens of the United States.
With that type of outrageous land grab, they are looking to definitively pull the teeth of the budding insurrection. So it appears that they will be rounding up anyone and everyone that they consider to be a threat.
See who is being arrested, page 2:
So wrong
He was armed. And was arguably reaching for his gun when shot. While you have the right to carry, you wave your right to act like an aggressive idiot while doing so.
Trump is set to lose by an extremely large margin.
wat?
That’s what the muslims want. But Trump will win
The BLM has harassed, bullied, tormented, and terrorized farmers and ranchers for years taking land from them thats been in their family for generations just so they can sell resources of the land to foreign countries like China- the BLM did everything that they could to stir up trouble- there is two recordings of the incident from inside the truck proving they were fired on with no provocation- he was shot and killed and they wanted to assassinate all- the authoritys tried their best to provoke a gun fight but the occupants of Lavoys truck including Lavoy were unarmed- he was reaching for his wounds not a gun- Lavoy Finicum was assassinated because he was the voice of the farmers and ranchers that was gaining popularity- the BLM is a terrorist organization formed by our government designed to grab up land-
Dumb Post, Dumber Comments. These folks will get their day in court.
Love how you folks dump on the government and Obama, yet when it got down to it, when the Bundy’s needed a loan, not one private bank, credit union, etc…gave them one. Only a program designed to help small business owners, supported by Obama, did.
So when push came to shove, it was the “enemy” who held no grudge.
Trump is a liar and a fraud.

Snopes backs their research. The same cannot be said about the majority of right/left wing political pages who have agendas.
As for the people who run snopes, the last time they registered with a political party it was republican.
