The case of LaVoy Finicum, the rancher who was gunned down in Oregon last year, may have disappeared from the main stream press, but you can be sure that it is still a hot topic in rural America where they see it as a clear cut case of murder by government authorities. The situation embarrassed local and federal authorities as farmers and ranchers continued their protest against government overreach and land theft, which was carried in national newspapers for weeks on end.
The end result was that Finicum, one of the leaders in the debacle, advised officials that he was going to the next town to meet with the sheriff there. County sheriffs have tremendous jurisdiction over the area that they oversee, and that would have been a problem for law enforcement and the FBI Hostage Rescue Team which was on site. Enroute to the meeting, Finicums truck was forced off the road into a snow bank, Finicum got out of the truck with hands raised, then tried to approach officers with his hands held wide, but was gunned down in cold blood there in the snow. There is both helicopter footage as well as a cell phone record of the incident, and it is causing some major concerns among law enforcement and the FBI.
FBI implicated in murder of Finicum, page 2:
It was obvious and easily seen, the first shot hit him lower left stomach area which when he put his hand there out of pure instinct it made it look like he was teaching for his gun. They murdered this man flat out
Why Hillary can never be President.
The FBI is the american stasi.
People need to understand that if you stand up for your rights you have a good chance of being murdered by the government. It is the reality we live in today.

That wasn’t no fucking helicopter footage.. that was preditor drone footage.. and no way the fbi by the trucks fired that shot. Yes, there were fbi on ladders behind the lead truck, but the trajectory does not line up with where that ladder was placed. That shot came from the woods, on the other side of the highway.
He was shot at BY SEVERAL DIFFERENT PEOPLE, before he reached for his gun. He has the right to defend himself, including against federal agents.
