AZ county renames a highway for Oregon wildlife refuge occupier

Remember the standoff in Oregon last year? Mohave County, where Finicum lived, named a stretch of highway after him. This and that a jury acquitted the others will only empower the sovereign citizen and militia movements.

Mohave County renames road after LaVoy Finicum, militia member killed by officers

The Arizona rancher and anti-government protester died on the side of a remote Oregon road in 2016. He was shot after he ran a police roadblock, plowed into a snowbank, got out of his truck and advanced on authorities.

The Mohave County Board of Supervisors this week voted to rename another remote stretch of road after Finicum, calling him a patriot who died defending his beliefs.
