More propaganda from the Bundy Ranch FB page, including an "eyewitness" account from Victoria Sharp of the singing Sharp family, who was riding with Finicum. She says that 120 shots were fired by LE. If that were true, they'd all be dead. Trouble is, these folks are all huge government conspiracy believers, with no critical thinking skills. And they won't give up. JMO

She should stick to singing, she is not a believable storyteller.

“People in the trees. It was an ambush.” I don't believe her.

What got me this morning was one of the stragglers on the live stream, the one who talked to his mom said how they had food & supplies and how well planned the whole occupation was. what?? They had lists for all their wants & needs because they weren't prepared.

These guys aren't playing with a full deck.

Now this guy live streaming, Fry, he thinks he's made some profound statements but all I've heard was they are going to die and are ready to die right there.


But they were also agreeing they would be pardoned, given the outpouring of support from Americans everywhere.

They obviously genuinely believe in everything they're spouting about the federal government, etc., but they are equally obviously perfect pawns for the clear-eyed economic interests pushing for the privatization of public lands.

"They're gonna have to pardon us. The American people are going to insist on it." LOL.

They may have to wait for that. The only people who could pardon them right now would be President Barack Obama or Governor Kate Brown. I don’t think either one of them will be inclined to do that. Obama seems to be trying to stay out of it, and Governor Brown has been outspoken to bring them to justice.

How are they getting all these 8 men and law enforcement around? Are they in buses? A sheriff's posse? A plane? From Burns to Bend by car is 2 hours and 15 minutes. From Bend to PDX is about 3.5. Granted, you can go about 95 miles per hour in the desert between Burns and Bend even if you aren't a cop, but that's still a lotta hours. And you have to go over the mountains to PDX and it's winter.

Anyway, I'm curious....

I think they will get an airplane ride. Better for security.

Prosecutors said they'd be afraid alleged co-conspirators would return to Mahleur refuge and 'bunker in' for a last stand #Oregonstandoff

AUSA Ethan Knight cited the 'dynamic situation involving an ongoing armed occupation' as reason not to release defendants #Oregonstandoff

I wish that David Fry guy had learned how to properly livestream. I guess he was too busy making his videos of his favorite war game 'moves'.

Through attorney, Ammon Bundy is telling remaining occupiers in Burns to "Go home. Hug your families. Let us take it from here."

I am just waiting for the exodus to being.... and the arrests to follow. Popcorn, anyone?

They stand a better chance of each one of them separately winning a lottery than of any of them receiving a pardon from anyone, ever.

But I'm not surprised they think such a thing possible, given their nonexistent understanding of our actual, real- life government.

Jason Patrick, new leader, on refuge occupiers' decision overnight: "The majority vote was to stay." http://bit.ly/1SjyhpA

Majority vote...oh! The irony. Kind of like we do in elections to choose our government. You know, THE GOVERNMENT...

They had to get to PDX already by this morning for arraignment. That's partly why I was curious.

I am fairly certain they took them directly to Portland yesterday immediately following the arrests.
