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:
Of course they did!
The government ended up with the Hammonds land and sold the uranium to Russia through Clinton
Lavoy was ambushed out in the middle of nowhere and murdered in cold blood. He had his arms raised and was sht from the front, then shot in the back, there were several witnesses. The land the government was trying to steal from him, he purchased, they had no right to it. Harry Reid needs to be investigated as well as those who murdered Lavoy. His family and all those who were terrorized need to sue for millions. Since when can an innocent rancher be gunned down simply because he wouldn’t turn over HIS property? Don’t let this slide or you may be next. This was an over-reach of power and excessive force.
Of course they did!!! Duhhh
No$#%&!@*
