1. missed it, what did he say

Is this the local folks who are sympathetic to the insurrectionist terrorists?

8. Very, very few of the local folks support these clowns.

The overwhelming sentiment expressed so far is the desire for them to get the hell out of Harney County. Despite largely embracing conservative politics, most of the people in that area aren't frothing anti-government lunatics like the seditionists. And they definitely do not appreciate out-of-state jackasses blundering in and causing a huge mess.

9. The locals have the most to lose. Bundy sees a "profit deal" here, he saw how

other rightwing assholes got sympathy and millions.

11. Good observation.

The Bundys have that opportunist, Westboro stench about them.

3. So they turned themselves in peacefully?

Very good to hear. Having read up on the refuge, I hope I get a chance to head over for a visit and some unarmed birdwatching in the spring.

6. The Hammonds did not the asshats in the sanctuary. nt

[Warren DeMontague]

7. The Ranchers in question always intended to turn themselves in.

The Bundys are grandstanding on their case and even the principal people involved don't want them to.

10. Too bad

I definitely hope they're out by spring then.

5. He said nothing new. Had a msg for the occupiers "Leave peacefully".

No threats. The whole thing lasted about 4 minutes.
