    apparently everyone on youtube is only listening to hear them die

    I like how all these groups not showing up is because they are "infiltrated by FBI agents"

    Every member is secretly an FBI agent from a different region. lol

    They need to explain to themselves the disconnect between the initial militia rhetoric, and the incredibly quick collapse of the occupation when officers started arresting people.

    "We don't need three people speeding down here, we need THOUSANDS"

    I mean it's like they actually think they have thousands of supporters.

    They keep on vacillating between delusions of tons of support and realizing how little anybody supports them.

    59k are listening.

    Most are making fun of you and/or hoping you don't do something stupid.

    I'm definitely getting the impression this goes to shit if she gets off the phone.

    Google says Portland to Burns is 5 hours. She's got her work cut out for her.

    Nevada house assemblywoman Michele Fiore, I believe.

  • ElkiElki get busy Moderator, ClubPA mod
    She's a movement sympathizer. You can lookup things she said at the beginning and during the occupation.

    Cell phone reception in the mountains is not good.

    I mean, whatever other shit she may be doing or have done to get herself wrapped up in this, props to her doing whatever she can to keep this calm and keep them alive.

    I really wish when this had all started they'd have just hauled in water and dumped it on the refuge with fire-choppers. It was well below freezing. They'd have all broken their hips and been begging to leave.

  • RaynagaRaynaga Registered User regular
    What I want to know is what exactly is supposed to happen when she gets there? She's an out of state semi-Looney state assemblywoman.

  • InvectivusInvectivus Registered User regular
    I think Fiore is trying to end this peacefully. The FBI must be in contact with her, telling her to keep them calm

    If the FBI thinks she can get them to walk out without a firefight, they'll let her do whatever she can.

  • RaynagaRaynaga Registered User regular
    ...I googled her. Take out semi.

  • CouscousCouscous Registered User regular
    One of them is now referencing Braveheart.

  • dispatch.odispatch.o Registered User regular
    I'm sure they think that they think she will somehow be able to get the charges removed or offer some sort of state asylum. I really don't think her showing up will do any good.

  • RaynagaRaynaga Registered User regular
    ....oh, god. Do you remember Braveheart? Are we sure this isn't a war of the worlds level stunt?

    The funny thing is that the ACLU of Oregon is actually defending Pete Santilli.

    Edit: I don't know that the government would just go in shooting if it was BLM but I certainly don't think they'd have humored them for 2 months.

    And I just got the acronym for BLM straightened out, too.

    I doubt they even know what the ACLU is other than a phrase they've heard vilified for years on Fox news and right wing radio.

    There is nothing particularly surprising about these people. They are the predictable outcome of the 24/7 torrent of lies and extremism that characterizes american right wing media.

    these guys are at the point where they're willing to die because they want to light a propane tank instead of just go inside

    these people are trying to get killed

    I'd be surprised if they weren't. Claims to be a journalist, and gets jailed? Total ACLU material.

    FBI is straight trolling them. How do I get that job?

    They have some moments of lucidity, where they're realizing that no one is coming to help and the revolution is not happening. Seems to siloed from the rest of what's happening in their brains, though.

    And this feed. Holy shit this feed.

    Now they have the Victoria Sharpe character who went through bold-faced denial in front of the CNN reporter when confronted with the video of Lavoy Finnicum's shooting.

    And this entire thing is being orchestrated by Gavin Seim, who is a higher end tool in the whole toolbox of stupid in this scenario?

    Oh, now they're quoting Psalms.

    I've had enough of the feed. I'm going to hope this is resolved peacefully by the time I wake up tomorrow. Not confident it will be resolved peacefully, though.

    Maybe they're going to use the "Airheads Defense" where they start asking for naked pictures of Bea Arthur and football helmets full of cottage cheese?
