Terrorists take over federal Building, threaten violence

 
 
 
It appears these morons are following in the steps of their predecessors.:

Actually, no. It turns out that the majority of militiamen formed during the Revolutionary War were a bunch of disorganized drunks who often got bored and caused disruptions when they weren't retreating from battle. For this reason, George Washington repeatedly referred to militiamen as arrogant, cowardly, and endangering to the actual army they fought alongside. At the battle of Kip's Bay, untrained militiamen fled at the sight of the British army, causing an enraged Washington to chase his own people whilst whipping at them with a cane. In Charleston, militia riflemen nearly mutinied after only 60 days of being constantly punished for firing their guns out of boredom.

So when the armed group in Oregon tells the media that they will stay there forever before immediately asking people to send snacks, that is historically completely in line with the behavior of a militia. Because militias are made of fucking idiots.

Admiralty law/common law
According to sovereign beliefs, there are two types of law: common law and admiralty law. Since the U.S. went off the gold standard in 1933, sovereigns say, no one has been able to pay a debt with "real" money, and therefore the country has been operating under commercial law, which sovereigns equate with admiralty law, the law of the seas. Thus, they argue, completely speciously, that Americans have been deprived of their original common law, under which the government can only impose regulations on citizens with their consent, since 1933.

Every time I learn something new about right wingers, they turn out to be more out to lunch than I previously thought.

PS -- my apologies to any conservatives or libertarians who were offended by my criticism. You are clearly persecuted, and you should immediately stage an armed takeover of the nearest federal facility in order to protest your persecution.

But don't forget to bring your pillows and hazelnut creamers. It undercuts your stance as a rugged individualist if you need to have your mommy ask people to send those in for you.

They are threatening to "arrest" public officials for threatening to charge them a fee for occupying a federal building.

They want to charge a man with treason for mocking them...

Two hundred fifty years ago, anyone mocking the crown could be punished for treason.
The Founding Fathers that these yahoos fetishize didn't want such a state of affairs, so in the also-fetishized-Constitution they defined treason specifically as taking up arms against the government or supporting those who do.

Nothing about mockery.
Nothing about political cartoons or Johnny Carson's monologue or billing someone for occupying Federal land...

Never mind the dildos, maybe we should mail them copies of the Constitution?

Me thinketh that it is not for the lack of a copy of the Constitution, that they are...shall we say confused, but...quoting from Wanda to Otto (Fish Called Wanda: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095159/quotes)

Otto West: Don't call me stupid.
Wanda: Oh, right! To call you stupid would be an insult to stupid people! I've known sheep that could outwit you. I've worn dresses with higher IQs. But you think you're an intellectual, don't you, ape?
Otto West: Apes don't read philosophy.
Wanda: Yes they do, Otto. They just don't understand it.
 
Oregon Police Arrest Man Over Federal Vehicles Stolen From Refuge

Oregon police on Friday for the first time arrested a man in connection with the armed occupation of a wildlife refuge, apprehending a member of the group over two stolen government vehicles, authorities said.

Oregon State Police arrested Kenneth Medenbach, 62, outside a Safeway in Burns and recovered two U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service vehicles reported stolen from the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, the refuge occupied by an armed group for nearly two weeks, police said.

I guess there's going to be some hungry freedom fighters in Oregon tonight.

Meanwhile, their volunteer spokesperson is getting pissy because the county judge won't provide them with an indoor soapbox:

The group had planned to meet with the community and explain their actions and timetable for withdrawal Friday evening, but Finicum said Harney County Judge Steve Grasty has prevented them from securing a meeting place.

Grasty has said the county will not do anything that supports or enables the Bundy group, NBC affiliate KTVZ reported.

"That means no county building is available to the armed militia, including Mr. Bundy," Grasty said, according to the station. Finicum said the group still plans to hold a meeting "soon" but couldn't say exactly when.

*ETA:

Protester arrested in Burns, accused of driving stolen refuge vehicle

The man was identified as Kenneth Medenbach, 62, of Crescent. He was arrested on suspicion of unauthorized use of a motor vehicle, a class C felony punishable by up to five years in prison. He was to be booked into the Deschutes County Jail in Bend with bail set at $10,000, officials said.

According to federal court records, Medenbach is currently facing federal charges in Medford and was released from custody in November. A condition of his release was that he would not "occupy" any federal land. He was accused of illegally camping on federal property.

The guy's got quite a history of armed occupation of public land:

In 1995, Medenbach was convicted on federal charges for illegally camping on the Gifford Pinchot National Forest in Washington state. He was ordered held in custody because of evidence that Medenbach poses a risk to the safety of other persons or the community because [he] acknowledges intimidation practices, references 'Ruby Ridge' and 'Waco, Texas,' and clearly would not follow conditions of release restraining his presence at the scene of the alleged unlawful activity," according to a federal appellate court ruling upholding his conviction.

The appellate ruling said there was "evidence that Medenbach had attempted to protect his forest campsite with fifty to a hundred pounds of the explosive ammonium sulfate, a pellet gun, and what appeared to be a hand grenade with trip wires. The government also proffered evidence that Medenbach had warned Forest Service officers of potential armed resistance to the federal government's continued control of the forest lands in question."

Mendenbach earlier attempted to squat on federal land in southern Oregon. During those court hearings, he claimed the U.S. Constitution gave the federal government authority to own property only for military installations and post offices, The Oregonian's archives show.

Nice. It's not a bad strategy to grab the most violent as they go out for beer and snacks.
 
if these guys are so good with land, why don't they just herd some goats and make an in-door garden for food.

OOOH! We get twenty cops to stand across the road to the Safeway. Link arms and sing, "Red rover, red rover, send a felon on over!"

And it's just part of the rules of Red Rover, then. If you catch him, you get to keep him.
 
Send in some paddy wagons and cops. Send the silly buggers a few cases of cheap whisky, and some barbituates. When they are bombed out of their skulls go in and carry them out.

Oh, God, no.
Armed and righteous drunks are worse than anything. Just my luck, our strike team would get there JUST as the silly buggers' fight over the Trivial Pursuit game reached the shootout stage.
 
Where is that old Obama spirit there? Time to capture and kill terrorists. Obama always is bragging he kills terrorists. We here are some. Of course there is an alternative...they can surrender and go to jail.;)
 
A California man involved in the armed occupation of a wildlife refuge in Oregon received a citation early Sunday morning after crashing a van, according to local media.
Oregon Public Broadcasting and The Oregonian reported that 57-year-old Darrow Burke flipped the Ford van on an icy road in Harney County.

The van crashed through a barbed-wire fence and ended up coming to a stop on its side about 150 feet from the road. Burke was not injured.
Burke was cited for driving without a license after officers arrived at the crash.
“Oregon only cites for No Operator’s License, we do not arrest,” State Police Spokesman Bill Fugate told Oregon Public Broadcasting.

We don't need no steenking drivers license!
