The standoff in Oregon between local rights advocates and the federal government regarding the ranchers who are being sent to prison over fires they set in 2006 to clear their land of brush and weeds is increasing in intensity.
Outside groups have made their way to the Malheur Wildlife Reserve and taken over the building (which was unoccupied). The government has responded by sending SOD-X Reserve/National Guard Special Operations troops, with the very clear potential for armed conflict.
This is once again a strong arm effort by the government to show that they own much of the land in Oregon (close to 50 of the entire land mass), and that locals such as ranchers must cow-tow to the government in Washington D.C.
There are serious issues here, and many Constitutional scholars indicate that the Federal government cannot, in fact, own land except for a section in the District of Columbia, plus some ports and seaways. But that may be a moot point when you have the U.S. military going against a rag-tag band of ranchers.

The Federal government, according to the United States Constitution, has no right to the land. We know the Federal government is corrupt. Our military has a sworn duty to protect American citizens against all enemies, foreign or domestic. This government IS the enemy. There should be outrage by every citizen in this country if anything happens to these Americans who are standing up for their rights. If the Constitution of the United States can be ignored by the government and the legality of it’s contents no longer have merit, we become slaves of the government!
They should be left alone
Why? Obama didn’t send anyone in to Ferguson or Baltimore! Oh Yeah, he did I forgot. He sent his Black Panthers in to cause rioting and destruction. Silly me.

Nowhere in our states does it say the federal gov has the right to own land. Our constitution is very clear on weapons as well so our out of control corrupt gov needs a wake up call. Shame on every last soldier whom pissed on there oaths while obeying a unlawful order against its citizens…
How on earth do you people not understand that BLM and the Oregon protestors are protesting the same thing. Over criminalization. How about supporting both causes instead of letting the media propagandize you into hating BLM?
If you support Y’allqueda just know your intelligent friends think you are a fucktard.
Choose Cruz OR America WILL LOSE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Our govt. should stand down against this protest.. we are American’s fighting for a cause and we need someone reporting the truth about all that happened and it will disapate…peacefully… but no Govt. is oppressing it’s own people
