Still not a terrorist group though, right?

To top it off Cliven Bundy said Finicum died with a purpose and for a great cause.

The F.B.I. took the extraordinary step of releasing surveillance video on Thursday showing the shooting death of LaVoy Finicum, a member of the armed occupation of a federal wildlife refuge here in eastern Oregon, as the occupation continued by a handful of followers.
Quote:
In the video, Mr. Finicum is shown with his hands raised at one point, but Mr. Bretzing said it also showed him reaching for a weapon.

“On at least two occasions, Finicum reaches his right hand toward a pocket on the left inside portion of his jacket. He did have a loaded 9 mm semiautomatic handgun in that pocket,” Mr. Bretzing said.

Sounds like there is a rift between the militia . Some wanting to get in to a gun battle and the others who have changed their tones after this happened.

You can see in the video he nails on of the cops when he plows into the snow banl.

Bundy dosen't so tough anymore . I guess he didn't really believe the F.B.I would fire shoot him at them. I guess a shot in the right arm and being arrested lhas taken all the fight out of him.

I don't have any sympathy for any of these guys what so ever.Most of these guys are part of the militia that thought the could strongarm the government with firearmson the Bundy ranch now in Oregon.

Interview with Finicum about a week or so before he was shoot dead.

He will kill any officer who attempts to arrest him while he is holding a firearm.

I guess he got what he wanted. Interesting how little news there is on this. The Feds must be pleased how this is going, notwithstanding the fatality. Hopefully the last few will leave peacefully.

It was always a stupid protest, even from the already moronic perspective of the fat inbred trailer dwellers that make up these 'militias'.

They shouldn't be aloud to just leave peacefully. They need to be arrested. They are making videos telling people to kill the Feds. They illegally over took a government building with firearms.

This whole situation is an example of white privilege
You think if it was Muslim or Black people holding firearms and making violent threats that this would have lasted more then a few days. I highly doubt that.

Easy now. I think they should be arrested. All I meant was that they shouldn't go down shooting.

And now the clown that started the whole movement, who should have been detained years ago, gets arrested. I could just imagine the mess they would have if Cliven Bundy somehow managed to get to the compound. Could this be the end for Y'all Queda?

One of the perks of being white terrorists, I suppose. Even the defence attorneys were shocked.

And then there was this:

Quote:
Tumult erupted in the courtroom Thursday after the verdicts were read when an attorney for group leader Ammon Bundy demanded his client be immediately released and repeatedly yelled at the judge. U.S. marshals tackled attorney Marcus Mumford to the ground, used a stun gun on him several times and arrested him.
