How long is this outrageous crap going to continue. They get a free pass from the Federal government. WTF is going on? Enough is enough IMO! This is just emboldening them to do more crap across the US. It needs to be stopped! Imagine OWS doing anything like this, or people of color. They would likely be imprisoned by now for federal offenses.

The militia group occupying an Oregon wildlife refuge has been paving new roads, scrapping fences and taking down security cameras on federal property.
In their latest anti-government display, the armed group scaled ladders Friday to disable surveillance cameras at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge and blamed the FBI for installing them to survey the occupation.
The black cameras, previously attached to poles at the headquarters, were a symbol of "mass surveillance," militia spokesman LaVoy Finicum said at a media briefing Saturday, where he displayed a basket of the devices.
Their transformation of federal property has earned the ire of the Burns Paiute Tribe, whose leaders demanded criminal charges be brought against Ammon Bundy's group, fearing that priceless artifacts have been defaced and ancient burial grounds desecrated since their Jan. 2 takeover.
"We have no idea whether the militants have disturbed the Tribe's artifacts or gained access to otherwise confidential information," wrote tribe chairperson Charlotte Rodrique in a letter to U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service regional director Robyn Thorson.

protect properties. No one was found. Scientists baffled. Trucks seen leaving, content unknown. Strange mystery. Large meteorite suspected.
