So many gems, but some of my favorites:

"If you can't overthrow the government until your government check arrives --You might be snackless."

"If your criminal history is longer than your fake military career - You might be snackless "

"If you livestream telling people to kill police and you don't know why you're going to jail - You might be snackless."

"If you steal a government vehicle during an armed takeover to go to town to buy Cheetos - You might be snackless."

These fake patriots have become national jokes. Somehow I don't believe that's what these tough guys were going for.
That's great! And oh, so true!

The whack-a-loon YT sites are making me wish I invested in the Reynolds wrap company.

It isn't the feds now. It is French mercs hired by Obama to start a revolution so that the elections will be called off and he will appoint himself dictator for life.

I wonder if there will be more charges filed later? What about restitution for all the damage they did, not to mention their role in the death of "LeRoy".

I'm not rejoicing over the death of Robert "LaVoy" Finicum. I read some about him in a Counterpunch article in which he was approached by the writer who had an obvious bias against the stand taken by Finicum and the man still treated the writer with respect, he offered his views on what he thought the constitution offered him and other users of federal land.

I think that Finicum was, more than likely, a man with a misplaced set of values, period. His brand of Mormonism is quite alive and well in the SW United States and also in parts of eastern Idaho. The speculation over his death at the hands of Oregon police should have been no surprise to anyone familiar with Finicum's philosophy and often heard declarations of his intent not to be taken by law enforcement and imprisoned, but some are still insisting that he was shot down while surrendering.

He had stated many times his mantra that:" “I’m not going to end up in prison,” said Mr. Finicum, 54, who often appeared at news conferences wearing a broad cowboy hat on his head and a sidearm on his hip. “I would rather die than be caged. And I’ve lived a good life.” He died in a manner consistent with his beliefs, sadly, he won't be the last to die this way. These people are poisoning the minds of their children, not to mention anyone who will listen to their twisted theo-fantasies of them taking on the US government while winning the hearts and minds of the rest of us.

I'm sure there will be more charges added after the feds can get into the refuge and do an investigation.

All of the 4 holdouts will be arrested.

http://www.oregonlive.com/oregon-sta...gainst_amm.htm

"Ammon Bundy and 15 others accused in the armed takeover of a federal wildlife refuge -- including four people who remain at the bird sanctuary -- have been indicted on charges of conspiracy to impede federal officers through intimidation, threats or force.

A federal grand jury returned the indictments Wednesday and they were unsealed Thursday morning."

"The accused co-conspirators are charged with occupying the federal property "while using and carrying firearms,'' threatening violence against anybody who attempted to remove them from the refuge and using social media and other means of communication to recruit and encourage others to join them.

The indictments also alleged the group carried firearms on the federal property and refused repeated federal orders to leave. It contends the conspiracy lasted through the date of the indictments."

And then there's Fearless Leader. Most people who find themselves in a hole stop digging. Maybe he thinks if he goes deep enough he'll end up on an Australian refuge.

LOL

He gets tripped up by the word "complacent" at the 1-minute mark.

Denial and rationalization are strong w/ this one.
