On Lawrence right now the HeeHaw Jihadists have stolen a federal bulldozer & are armed and on watch

[jillan]

waiting for the Feds to show up. Capt Muroni (his name for himself!!) is willing to die for this cause cuz he loves his freedum too much to go to jail.

[saltpoint]

1. O my god, everyone -- they have a bulldozer!

We're doomed! The bird sanctuary is lost!!

Clearly the U.S. Government should surrender immediately so as not to earn the disdain of the occupying patriots.

[jillan]

3. They have no right to steal federal property.

[saltpoint]

7. I wouldn't think so, no. eom

[emulatorloo]

4. They're implying they will use it as a barrier so they can "defend themselves" i.e. Shoot Fed agents

[saltpoint]

8. I guess they're as angry as they are stupid,

and that's pretty darn angry.

[emulatorloo]

12. Live interview now.

[NutmegYankee]

28. Reminds me of a movie...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Killdozer!_(film)

The original short story was better.

[emulatorloo]

2. Guy sitting in lawn chair covered by a tarp. Rifle ready to draw on Feds.

Claims there is a warrant out for him.

MSNBC reporter talking to him off mic, expect to hear a summary in a min or too.

[jillan]

6. These people are nuts!

[MohRokTah]

9. Captain Moroni, aka "Blue Tarp Man" eom

[Downwinder]

13. Blue FEMA tarp?

[flamingdem]

22. +1

[nolabear]

15. Wait, they're the same guy?

Are they all the same guy?

[pinboy3niner]

26. No, #bluetarpguy is not "Captain Moroni"

Both are Mormons, but blue tarp guy, LaVoy Finicum, is from Arizona and "Captain Moroni" is from Utah.

[Lancero]

31. I thought it was Captain Morani?

[Hassin Bin Sober]

30. He also has the death sentence on 12 systems.

[MohRokTah]

5. That's one more count of stealing federal property and...

one more count of making terroristic threats.

The longer the Feds let this play out, the higher the stack of federal charges with mandatory minimum sentences to run consecutively.

[nolabear]

10. Yeah, but Blue Tarp Man. Heroic, heroic Blue Tarp Man.

[oldandhappy]

11. I strongly disagree with giving blue tarp man air time.

[jillan]

14. I don't know - it was pretty interesting to hear where his head is at.

Or should I say pretty scary.

[nolabear]

16. Oh, I dunno. If they're going to be there they might as well embrace the rainbow.

Blue Tarp Man, Fuzzy Unicorn...they're desperadoes all right.

[emulatorloo]

19. He made a fool of himself.

Basically a drama queen.


Garbled nonsensical "explanation" as to why they are there:
"Feds bad, I can talk face to face with my county sheriff but John McCain would never meet me"

[marew]

21. Heard that also!

Basically a rambling ejit!

[BeyondGeography]

17. Sounds like the goober caliphate is still looking for its Danton

[Nevernose]

18. It's "Moroni;" it's a Mormon thing. Also:

I endorse HeeHawdists and "TaliBundys"

[Efilroft Sul]

32. Moochahadin freedom fighters.

The fun never ends!

[pinboy3niner]

20. "Captain Moroni" is the nom de guerre used by one insurgent who is a Mormon from Utah

He took the name of Captain Moroni, a military leader and hero in the Book of Mormon (not to be confused with Angel Moroni, a different figure in Mormon teachings).

Is Captain Moroni the same guy as Blue Tarp Guy?

[KingCharlemagne]

39. I don't think so, but he is married to Boney:

~She makes me feel like a bag of macaroni

[Odin2005]

23. Do these idiots not know that the government could kill them with a single missle strike?

I don't think a bulldozer is going to help them!

[onecaliberal]

24. Apparently not. We had the same thought. Someone could take them out from 2000 miles away.

[Lizzie Poppet]

27. And completely destroy a critical (to the refuge) and historical facility.

Why, when they can just isolate them and wait them out? That's what Sheriff Ward was looking to do...but I'm beginning to think we've got some Rambos in the federal contingent.

[hopemountain]

29. and wildlife habitat preserve.

then we, the american people and our next 7 generations, loose for a handful of idiots who will be viewed by the yeehadists as martyrs. this would be a huge waste of our natural resource.

[onecaliberal]

33. I'm not advocating they should. Only pointing out they can if they wanted.

I'm NOT for the destruction of any wildlife refuge. They can cut power, set up parimeter, don't allow anything in or out. The yall'queda, or teahadists, will not last long.

[Lizzie Poppet]

36. Cool. We're on the same page.

These yahoos don't seem to be nearly as well prepared as it first seemed. No way they last out the winter there, once they've been isolated and blockaded.

[KingCharlemagne]

40. The video, man, the video:

[starroute]

25. Blue Tarp Man is LaVoy Finicum

You can google on him. He's Cliven Bundy's neighbor. He's written a book. He tweets. He's comedy gold.

[onecaliberal]

34. Blue tarp man is going to be a federal prisoner soon.

[Lizzie Poppet]

37. He's about to molt, like a caterpillar, into Orange Jumpsuit Man.

[onecaliberal]

38. Thanks for the epic chuckle!

[KingCharlemagne]

41. Brilliant! - nt

[Princess Turandot]

35. These mutts need to stop watching...
