... KOIN 6 News learned more outsiders are organizing and coming to the area. A rally of the group 3% of Idaho will take place Monday in the area of the Harney County Courthouse in Burns ...

The 3% of Idaho is the same group who arrived unannounced and uninvited on January 10, the 8th day of the militia’s occupation ...

... Ammon Bundy and other militia leaders said they weren’t wanted or needed, and they left ...

1. We need better mental health

screening and treatment in this country. These nutjobs are dangerous and totally unhinged from reality.

2. Gee, a confederate flag and everything! But, no, nothing racial about their movement.

3. They had a call a few days ago too, and reporters spotted like three guys showing up.

This crap is why FBI released the video, because too many believe what the want in absence of seeing it, then 10% won't believe their eyes because they already believe a falsehood. So, stop the falsehoods ASAP. They knew Finicum was doing stupid stuff before they rode in.

Here's an idea. Conserve energy and do a walking protest.

4. Feel the Burns! No, wait, wrong thread.

Those poor people have become a magnet for lazy, illiterate douche-bags around the country.

5. They are just making sure that the ones in jail

stay there. There will not be any bail while the protest continues.

6. One wonders if Harney county could obtain a county-wide restraining order

against outsiders that were part of the trespass or support the trespass in the press or social media?

Sounds extreme but it does not take many folks (as we have seen) to disrupt and endangered (as armed and vocally belligerent) the small Harney county population.

I was glad to see there was not much local support for the trespassers. There are issues in Harney county and issues between the locals and the Feds over land use but the message seems pretty clear that the outside trespassers are not wanted by locals.

7. Freedom of speech matters

9. I 100% agree that freedom of speeh matters and

I tend to be wary of law enforcement in general especially when prescriptive as well.

The key here is, "disrupt and endangered (as armed and vocally belligerent) the small Harney county population", specifically to voice an intent to be disruptive while armed.

The suggestion is probably an over reach. Tend to be of the opinion that the FBI, Sheriffs, and Oregon State police handled the bizarre event well. My concern second to violence was that similar copycat trespasses would occur in other isolated areas of the West and the sedition spread.

10. The standard for suppressing speech is that it poses a "clear and present danger"

8. When he wrote

"The founding Fathers would not stand for this" on his truck, you don't suppose he's talking about the Fucking confederate flag do you?

What an ignorant asshole.

12. I will believe they are serious and organized

when the porta-potties are rented and this guy shows up:

13. The "rolling protesters" may not want to roll too heavily...

After all the shit the Bundy Bunch has put the town of Burns through, I get this strange feeling if a handful of Burns residents were to get on the roofs of the handful of two-story buildings and start picking off the protesters, the Harney County Coroner might just find those boys died of natural causes.

"Natural causes"
'Yup...natural to the business they was in.'
