Kanye is the obvious answer.

Thanks for the research on Brandon Curtiss. He's already made a name for himself in Southern Oregon. When does he actually work and care for his family?

Scroll down for a "lovely" photo of Curtiss and friends when they came to Southern Oregon to "defend" a scofflaw miner against BLM action.

And he intimidated locals on the Josephine county courthouse steps who were protesting armed militia in the area "defending" this miner.

According to Budd, at that point others in the small crowd joined in. He said that Brandon Curtiss of the local III Percent chapter “came up to me right afterwards with Joseph Rice and was filming me on his cell phone, and they were trying to heckle.” He said another local Patriot started ranting at him, at which point Budd and the rest of the group retreated back through the courthouse, because “we didn't want to let it turn into a shouting match.”

I have been looking into the background of Brandon Curtiss. He is said to be the leader of The Pacific Patriot Network, a consortium of groups from Washington. Idaho, and Oregon.

Specifically, he is President of III% of Idaho (which, because of some activities in Idaho in October and November of last year, has made it to the SPLC Hatewatch).

See: https://www.splcenter.org/hatewatch...islamophobia-idaho-lead-anti-refugee-protests

In addition, he has been involved with and threatened legal action against The Idaho Department of Education, The West Ada School District, and The Meridian Middle School because the school sent his child a letter he didn't like.

He purchased a home in some Meridian subdivision and then proceeded to rent the home out, violating the homeowners covenants.

He started a property management buiness called Curtiss Property Management on March 5, 2012. After he screwed over a few people, and quit answering their complaints, and subpeonas, and missed court appearances, He started a new business September 17, 2015, called (what else?) Liberty Property Management which uses same address as the previous company.

There is a scathing review of his first company on Yelp. It totally sounds legit.

He claims to have spent 9 years in LE in Idaho. I don't know where.

He seems like an angry, nasty man to me and I don't trust him.

Lol. With a side order of James Brown greatest hits collection. Lol

You guys are hilarious. But seriously. Can't the fbi give immediate no jail plea bargains to anyone who exits right now. And those who stay will pay.

What are the negotiations that are going on? Because the manpower is needed elsewhere and we shouldn't be spending the winter in this small town. Jmo

However it is a charming town if you gotta spend time somewhere.
We went and got pizza there (they even had gluten free) and stayed at the Horseshoe Inn.
Very charming little town indeed.

I'm pretty sure we've readopted the rules which state torture is explicitly forbidden.

Apparently, so have the militia members.

How about a little Hotline Bling....once you get "you used to call me on my cellphone" in your head, you can't get it out...(you're welcome)

Killjoy.

You're right. An exception should be made in this special case for these special folks.

My suggestion- "I Will Survive" by Gloria Gaynor, disco hit and anthem of the gay community.

Have I redeemed myself?

Militants May Have Accessed Government Computers At Refuge
Oregon Public Broadcasting
by John Sepulvado OPB | Jan. 8, 2016 6:30 p.m. | Updated: Jan. 9, 2016 11:32 a.m.

http://www.opb.org/news/series/burn...have-accessed-government-computers-at-refuge/

“The Federal Bureau of Investigation is looking into whether militants at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge have accessed government computers during their occupation.

OPB observed militants interacting with computers in the compound that can only be accessed with employee ID badges. The armed men also appear to have gone through materials in an office building used by federal employees.”

*

“The computers are in a room of cubicles near the main compound. LaVoy Finicum, (Tarpman) a member of the occupying group’s security team, accidentally led OPB into the area.

Finicum says the group plans to turn the office into a media center that would eventually house reporters.

There are four desks in the office, two on each side. Three of the computers were turned on, and in screen saver mode. Papers in the room were strewn about in a disorderly manner.

After Finicum realized he shouldn’t have allowed OPB to access the room, he quickly picked up lists of names and Social Security numbers by the computers, and hid government employee ID cards that were previously in plain sight.

Shortly after, one of the militant leaders, Ryan Bundy, walked into the room.

When asked about the computers, Bundy emphatically denied any of the work spaces had been touched since the occupation.”

*

“When reached Friday, FBI spokeswoman Beth Anne Steele declined to officially comment on any activity ongoing at the refuge.

However, law enforcement officials are concerned refuge employees could potentially be harmed by members of the group. Prior to the occupation, federal employees and family members of local law enforcement had received anonymous threats.”​

This is very serious, imo.

 

[bluesneakers]

Why are they allowed to do this?

In the meantime, there is a new wish list:

Maybe someone can successfully post it here.

It occurs to me, since they seem desperately in need of panties, that perhaps G.I. Joe Gliniewicz's widow could donate some of his camouflage undies.
