Federal and state officials (click here) were restricting access to the Oregon refuge being occupied by an armed group after one of the occupiers was killed during a traffic stop and eight more, including the group's leader Ammon Bundy, were arrested.
The group, which has included people from as far away as Arizona and Michigan, seized the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge on Jan. 2. They want federal lands turned over to local authorities.
The confrontation came amid increasing calls for law enforcement to take action against Bundy for the illegal occupation of the wildlife refuge....
They refused to leave. They not only refused to leave, they broke into buildings and moved heavy equipment for a blockade and as a strategic point to kill law enforcement officers.
These people were armed. They also formed a militia with plans to bring more armed individuals to the park to bring about an end which included the deaths of law enforcement officers if they were interrupted.
They had no plans of leaving. They would have begun to build a small town inside the park.
They are very dangerous people that were also agitators to the local town(s) and county. It has to end. Either it ended with dangerous people under control or it would have ended very differently that may have killed innocent people. This is nonsense. We don't live during the California gold rush, it is 2016 where laws exist to protect innocent people.
I might point out how FOX News and it's commentators backed these people. That isn't journalism, it is agitating hate from some strange idea of 2nd Amendment rights. This is what happens when a media service carries a dangerous message to our country. This should have ended in Nevada, but, here we are again. Was it 2nd Amendment Rights on the line? Of course not. These people were armed and they would have killed law enforcement officers as well as anyone else that got in their way.
