    Default Oregon Protest Leader Ammon Bundy arrested, LaVoy Finicum shot and killed

    Oregon Protest Leader Ammon Bundy Has Been Arrested

    Update from Bill — see post #15
    LaVoy Finicum has been shot and killed


    26 JAN 2016
    6:39 PM PST
    CNN

    Shots Reportedly Fired



    Federal authorities arrested Ammon Bundy, the leader of a group of protesters occupying a federal wildlife refuge in Oregon, during a traffic stop Tuesday, a law enforcement official told CNN.

    Up to eight of Bundy's followers were detained, the source said.

    Shots were fired after authorities made the stop, according to the source. It's not clear who fired first.

    The group of protesters has occupied the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge since January 2 to protest federal land policies.

    Bundy, son of controversial Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, and others started out protesting the sentencing of Dwight Hammond and his son Steven, ranchers convicted of arson on federal lands in Oregon.

    But a march supporting the Hammonds led to the armed occupation of the refuge, with occupiers decrying what they call government overreach when it comes to federal lands.

    Pete Santilli has been arrested
    FBI - Oregon

    UPDATE - Additional Arrest Made in the Occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge: Joint Statement by the FBI and OSP - 01/26/16
    UPDATE AS OF 7:45 P.M.

    At approximately 6:30 p.m. (PST), the FBI arrested Peter Santilli, age 50, of Cincinnati, Ohio, in Burns, Oregon. He faces the same federal felony charge as the individuals listed below. The arrest was without incident.


    **note correction to Hwy. 395



    At approximately 4:25 p.m. (PST) on Tuesday, January 26, 2016, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) and Oregon State Police (OSP) began an enforcement action to bring into custody a number of individuals associated with the armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. During that arrest, there were shots fired.

    One individual who was a subject of a federal probable cause arrest is deceased. We will not be releasing any information about that person pending identification by the medical examiner's office.

    One individual suffered non-life threatening injuries and was transported to a local hospital for treatment. He was arrested and is currently in custody.

    The arrested individuals include:

    * Ammon Edward Bundy, age 40, of Emmett, Idaho
    * Ryan C. Bundy, age 43, of Bunkerville, Nevada
    * Brian Cavalier, age 44, of Bunkerville, Nevada
    * Shawna Cox, age 59, Kanab, Utah
    * Ryan Waylen Payne, age 32, of Anaconda, Montana

    These probable cause arrests occurred along Highway 395.

    In a separate event in Burns, Oregon, at approximately 5:50 pm, Oregon State Police arrested the following individual:

    * Joseph Donald O'Shaughnessy, age 45, Cottonwood, Arizona

    All of the named defendants face a federal felony charge of conspiracy to impede officers of the United States from discharging their official duties through the use of force, intimidation, or threats, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 372.

    We continue to work with Harney County Sheriff Dave Ward and his deputies; Oregon State Police; and the United States Attorney's Office to address any further outstanding issues. As the investigation is ongoing, we cannot comment further at this time.

    All defendants should be presumed innocent until proven guilty.

    Yep Target

    The FBI stated that the deceased individual "was a subject of a federal probable cause arrest".

    It has been allegedly reported by two separate sources that this person was on his knees with his hands on his head and he was shot three times in the back.

    With Pete Santilli now arrested the story coming out of Burns can now become anything they like.

    OK Folks,

    The Refuge is completely surrounded now with more vehicles reported incoming.

    Here are live streams from the Refuge:

    (Connection is spotty because they're in a fairly remote area)
    (I expect this one to soon be censored by YouTube)

    This may not be the right thread for this (it may need its own) — but here's Dave Hodges today:

    Murder at Malheur: The Shot Heard Around the World

    Lavoy Finicum, you may have drawn the shots that will be heard around the world. Rest in peace.

    We have seen this movie before. Federal officials abuse their authority and their heinous acts result in the deaths of people who did not deserve to die.

    Ruby Ridge


    Two of these people are dead courtesy of the FBI.

    Randy Weaver was convicted of possessing a shotgun that was one quarter of a inch too short. For his transgression, the FBI showed up on his property and shot his 15 year old son as he ran in fear from the FBI. Weaver’s wife was gunned down without by a sniper’s bullet shot through the Weaver’s kitchen window as she was holding her infant child. Eventually, Randy Weaver’s case reached the attention of Congress, who paid him over $4 million dollars in restitution. However, that did not bring Weaver’s family back to him. And the FBI agents who murdered Weaver’s family were never held accountable.

    The Waco Massacre


    Innocent children were burned to death at Waco.

    In 1993, Janet Reno, under the direction of Bill Clinton, ordered tanks to breach the walls of the Branch Davidians compound after a two month stand-off. Scores of innocent children were burned to death. Nobody was ever held accountable for this heinous act.

    The Murder at Malheur


    Lavoy Finicum, uunarmed, hands in the air, cooperating with authorities, is shot three times and killed while surrendering to authorities.

    The Bundys are in custody along with five others and tragically, an unarmed Robert “Lavoy” Finicum was gunned down in an act of cold-blooded murder as he was surrendering with his hands in the air.

    Two eyewitness accounts were posted on Facebook on the evening of January 26 about the murder of Finicum. At least temporarily, you may listen to these accounts by clicking here. I do not expect this recording to stay on Facebook much longer as the government censors will swoop in and remove this account. For posterity sake, if you are unable to listen to the eyewitness descriptions of this event, suffice it to say that Ammon Bundy was able to text that Lavoy Finicum was surrendering without incident when he was gunned down in an act of cold-blooded murder. Make no mistake Finicum was murdered. As was just stated, this true eyewitness account may no longer be available as the public reads these words.

    Finicum, father of 11, with no criminal record, seemed to foretell his death in an interview he conducted with the Oregonian the day before his murder. He stated that the Feds were becoming increasingly hostile


    Robert “LaVoy” Finicum’s last interview with The Oregonian on the day before his death “They’re doing all the things that shows that they want to take some kinetic action against us,” Robert “LaVoy” Finicum says of federal agents. These were some of Finicum’s last words to The Oregonian/OregonLive on the day before his death.

    “They’re doing all the things that shows that they want to take some kinetic action against us,” he said. Lavoy was correct, he was dead the very next day.

    The Lead Up to Finicum’s Murder

    When I first heard that the Bundy Patriots had seized a federal building 30 miles outside of Burns, Oregon, I knew that this was not going to end well. I interviewed former US Attorney, Kurt Haskell, and he said that these men were coming out in body bags or with 20 year federal prison sentences.

    The MSM was portraying the group as hunkered down wild-eyed militants intent on shooting federal officials. I had repeatedly said that “this was not the hill to die on”. Yet, I sympathized with his cause for reasons I will elucidate later in this article. On January 10th, The Common Sense Show attempted to interview Ammon Bundy to get his side of things as I clearly saw the government narrative all over the reports on CNN and Fox. One minute prior to the interview, both satellites that carry my show were simultaneously taken down. Our listen by phone option was taken down as well as all forms of communications. At the same time, Ammon Bundy and his Patriots had their communications simultaneously taken down. The feds were determined that this interview was not going to take place. However, on January 11, Katy Whelan, the Health Reporter for The Common Sense Show, worked with Shawna Cox and covertly set up the interview for the next day on January 11.

    We caught the feds totally off guard and the 40 minute interview went off without a hitch. In the interview, Ammon stated that he was in the area to prevent bloodshed. He cited several instances where he had gone on to land owned by local ranchers and removed BLM imposed barriers placed on rancher land which was depriving them of their ability to use their land to support their families. Ammon Bundy reached out to federal officials in Burns, Oregon and had a friendly relationship with them. Ammon Bundy came across as a reasoned person who was trying to thwart federal land abuse of thousands of ranchers across the West. I would like to ask CNN and Fox, who speaks for the ranchers? Why aren’t these land abuses reported on Fox and CNN?

    It is at this point in the story, that I would put the archival link to the Bundy interview here. However, both of my archival records of my interview with Ammon Bundy have been disabled at the source. The federal government does not want the public to hear the sane and reasonable Ammon Bundy that I spoke with on January 11. How can anyone trust an administration that conducts it business in such an inappropriate manner?

    The Real Issue Behind the Murder at Malheur

    From the evidence obtained from sources like the New York Times, we believe that Uranium One is behind the mineral theft of ranchers’ lands in the West. We further believe that the company in question is a Russian controlled front company whose primary mission is to obtain uranium which is sold to the Russians and funnels back payoffs to Hillary Clinton’s Presidential campaign. This was reported by the New York Times. As a result to all of this chicanery, ranchers have had their land rights restricted in order that they can have their mineral resources stolen. Further, this has resulted in land restrictions for these ranchers that is is preventing them from making a living off of their land. The situation is so grave that as many as 19 counties in Northern California and Southern Oregon have attempted to created a 51st state called the State of Jefferson. It is their belief that if they form their own state, they will be able to better ward off the oppression of the EPA and the BLM.


    The newly forming State of Jefferson. Will these people be the next to be abused by federal law enforcement officials?

    Incidentally, Shawna Cox, who facilitated The Common Sense Show’s Ammon Bundy interview with Katy Whelan has been arrested on the felony charge of conspiracy to impede officers of the United States from discharging their official duties through the use of force, intimidation, or threats, in violation of Title 18, United States Code, Section 372. Orwell’s 1984 has clearly arrived in which telling the truth has become a revolutionary act.

    Consequences

    With the murder of Lavoy Finicum, I don’t expect we will see an immediate push back from the ranchers. However, Finicum’s death will harden the resolve of American ranchers throughout the West. The handling of the Malheur situation has greatly increased the likelihood that there will more deadly incidents like this. And the feds have all but guaranteed that they will be fired upon given how Finicum was executed as he was unarmed and surrendering. Stupid, stupid, stupid!

    The Obama administration could turn gold into silly putty. They have managed to take a simple case of victimless trespass on federal land and turned this into a rallying cry for ranchers all throughout the West.

    Lavoy Finicum, you may have drawn the shots that will be heard around the world. Rest in peace.

    If only it were caught on video... I hope this blows up, apparently lessens were NOT learned at Ruby ridge and Waco; though honestly the M.O. of TBIC (the bastards in charge) never seems to change,,, like its some automaton that was programmed to deceive us at a certain level of awareness, but not advance past that...



    Very sad, I hope Mr Finicum's 11 children will be sufficiently provided for after he was murdered by the federal government.

    sounds like Lavoy ran from the police stop & was very "passionate", his truck got stuck, he jumped out of the vehicle and apparently "charged" law enforcement.... which is a great way to get shot unfortunately.

    so... uh... yeah, this will be an interesting thing to watch and see how it plays out.

    I am not well read into this story, but if it is in deed true that Lavoy Finicum surrendered unarmed with hands in the air, cooperating with authorities and at that point got shot with three bullets (a shoot to kill action), then that is HUGE, if that is true, then that is going to cause a major reaction by the public and cause a political storm in the US. It is one thing to claim authority to something - whether legally or ethically valid or not, but killing somebody that is unarmed with three shots that is in the process of following orders, that is a very serious crime and that I don't think the public is going to accept.

    Now, let's for a moment forget about the government crap and focus on this: Someone's soul mate was made inaccessible today. A fellow human being with all of his gifts, won't live here anymore. May he rest in peace and may all of his close ones get back the peace they've lost.

    Thanks for the article and links!

    I have to be out today so won't be able to monitor this.

    It can be difficult keeping up with the Live Stream as it changes often.

    Whenever the current stream ends go to This Page, in the drop-down box select [Live Streams], and check for the new Live Stream at the top of the list.

    Be aware that it may be awhile before he restarts the stream.
