How the Bundy Militia Created the "Harney County Committee of Safety" to Overthrow Local Government
by Michael Oman-Reagan

Despite appearing as a group of citizens representing Harney County, the "Committee of Safety" is a sock puppet of anti-government extremists led by Ammon Bundy, who seeks to overthrow legitimate democratically elected local government. This series of tweets documents the creation of this group.

"Committee of Safety" meant to become a shadow government and militia, it was created Dec 15, 2015 at this meeting:

.....

Ryan Payne, Bundy's militia head, describes their process as aimed at "abolishing the government" just as the American Revolution did.

Ryan Payne describes "Committee of Safety" as "their own civil authority" to oversee militia, with possibility of imprisoning the Governor.

Ryan Payne sells the "Committee of Safety" using fear of: flood, crime, or the UN invading the US. Fear of the UN is real in rural Oregon.

1. These people are NOT patriots. It is far past time for them to be arrested and jailed.

so miserably.

A revolution of Morans and Tea Partiers, yeah, good luck with that! Hint, combining IQ's won't help!

Their lawyers made sure their assets were out of reach long ago. Sorry, the tab goes to the People they wanted to overthrow.

Oregon Standoff Is Legally Untenable
OPINION: In order to preserve the rule of law, our government must enforce it against those who flout it.

Which seems very interesting. For all the jokes about not coming with snacks, they clearly were planning this in advance.

in Harney County, Tim White. And, guess who owns the domain name and hosts their website, Ammon Bundy!







What conspiracy? People ask why is LE taking so long without realizing the extent of the overthrow conspiracy? This might be a big roundup.
