The right's new fixation: An angry old white man who thinks freedom means not having to follow the law

"The latest right-wing media poster-victim, Cliven Bundy, is just the latest in a long line of desert dwellers who thinks he or she should not have to follow the law and has a god-given right to unlimited use of public resources, in this case, rangeland. I know the mentality well, because I grew up in rural Nevada and clung desperately to such beliefs until only a few years ago."

Son of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy occupies wildlife refuge HQ...

Peaceful protest followed by Oregon wildlife refuge action
Jan 2,`16 -- A peaceful protest Saturday in support of an eastern Oregon ranching family facing jail time for arson was followed shortly afterward by an occupation of a building at a national wildlife refuge.

Ammon Bundy, the son of Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, who was involved in a standoff with the government over grazing rights, told The Oregonian (Militia takes over Malheur National Wildlife Refuge headquarters ) he and two of his brothers were among a group of dozens of people occupying the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Ammon Bundy said the group planned to stay at the refuge indefinitely. "We're planning on staying here for years, absolutely," Ammon Bundy said. "This is not a decision we've made at the last minute." Bundy posted a video on his Facebook page asking for people to come help him. Below the video is this statement: "**ALL PATRIOTS ITS TIME TO STAND UP NOT STAND DOWN!!! WE NEED YOUR HELP!!! COME PREPARED."

An Idaho militia leader who helped organize the earlier march said he knew nothing about activities after a parade of militia members and local residents in Burns walked past the sheriff's office and the home of Dwight Hammond Jr. and his son Steven. Beth Anne Steele, an FBI spokeswoman in Portland, told The Associated Press the agency was aware of the situation at the national wildlife refuge. She made no further comment. Some local residents feared the Saturday rally would involve more than speeches, flags and marching. But the only real additions to that list seemed to be songs, flowers and pennies.

As marchers reached the courthouse, they tossed hundreds of pennies at the locked door. Their message: civilians were buying back their government. After the march passed, two girls swooped in to scavenge the pennies. A few blocks away, Hammond and his wife Susan greeted marchers, who planted flower bouquets in the snow. They sang some songs, Hammond said a few words, and the protesters marched back to their cars. Dwight Hammond has said he and his son plan to peacefully report to prison Jan. 4 as ordered by the judge. Dwight Hammond, 73, and Steven Hammond, 46, said they lit the fires in 2001 and 2006 to reduce the growth of invasive plants and protect their property from wildfires.

The two were convicted of the arsons three years ago and served time - the father three months, the son one year. But a judge ruled their terms were too short under federal law and ordered them back to prison for about four years each. The decision has generated controversy in a remote part of the state. In particular, the Hammonds' new sentences touched a nerve with far right groups who repudiate federal authority. Ammon Bundy and a handful of militiamen from other states arrived last month in Burns, some 60 miles from the Hammond ranch. In an email to supporters, Ammon Bundy criticized the U.S. government for a failed legal process.

Apparently his kid is taking on that role. Bundy's son 'Ammon' just got a message from God that he need to round up militia men in Oregon (a state he'd never been to), seize a federal building and make it the new militia headquarters.

They just seized the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge building in Oregon and insist there will be violence if the government tries to take it back. With Ammon releasing his own youtube video on the topic 3 days ago on how they are going to live in the building for the next several years as the militia men give the federal lands to miners, ranchers and logger.

Militia group led by Bundy brothers seizes federal building after protest

Its like the Blues Brothers. Except for assholes.

Teddy Roosevelt made that federal property a National Wildlife Refugee over a hundred years ago. US taxpayers have invested millions upon millions of dollars in the property over that time.
The US taxpayers who own that property are the victims of strong armed robbery. They armed thugs have no right to take our property and distribute it, or dole it out amongst themselves and their friends. This is not a few acres of desert and grassland. This is extremely valuable real estate that serves not only as an important nature preserve but a place where citizens enjoy outdoor activities like fishing and hiking, birding, photography, etc.

Agreed. We should not tolerate domestic terrorism. There is an American way to create change and it is not the barrel of a gun method these thugs are using.

This will not end well. These people have figured out that Obama is a total pussy and won't know what to do when federal authority is challenged. If you want to blame anyone, blame our Coward-in-Chief.

Obama avoided an unnecessary confrontation without bloodshed

Mr Bundys estate will pay what is due when the time comes

 

[bucs90]

So Guno what else have you lied about?

You told me you were born and raised in Brooklyn.

Then you said you moved to SC in the early 80s to help Bosch with its big move....meaning if you were that important you'd have to have been 35 or so....making you a sad 70 year old geezer by now who talks like a sophomore.

Now you say you were born and raised in Nevada.



Next week you'll be a Japanese immigrant right?

Federal Land is property of the United States citizens. Just like Obama works for the US, it's US citizen's property - everything he occupies.
If these people want to take over any federal property - it's fine with me.

How about if the Feds knock on your door someday, tap-tap-tap on the trailer door, and you're told - your home is being leveled so people can use this property to watch spotted owls fuck and fish mate.
You good to do with that, idiot?
