Speaking of Fiore, OPB has released part 1 of a 4 part series on COWS, the Coalition of Western States, involvement in the occupation based on an obtained 90 minute recording of COWS members. COWS is made up of a handful of politicians such as Fiore who are stupid anti government types and are in bed with the Bundys. Uh, not literally. Oh damn, i just thought of an Ammon, Cliven, Ryan and Fiore four-way. Shit.
A misfiring synaptic gap would be my best guess.
Here is the raw audio recording between COWS and local Harney county officials and the FBI.
Old joke:
Guy gets a ticket to a boxing match. As the fight is about to start, he notices he is sitting next to a priest. Just before the bell, one of the fighters turns, kneels, and crosses himself. Our guy turns to the priest and says, “Father, I’ve always wondered, does that actually help?”
Priest looks at the guy, “Not if he can’t box.”
But less disturbing than the sentence preceding it: “If the government is going to point a gun at me, I’m going to point one right back.” Fiore, there is no good reason why any government in the world should let you do that, and any that does is not a government.
Credibility of FBI’s elite Hostage Rescue Team is on the line

This report that the FBI HRT fired at Finicum - and policed their brass - and didn’t report it will give some fuel to the crazies.
When my oldest son was in probably kindergarten, we were talking about how you shouldn’t hit people. He very seriously (as only a five-year old can do) explained that it was OK to hit someone if they hit you back.
Federal judge considers Cliven a “danger to the public”. Refuses to release him on bail.
Thank goodness. Cliven is a textbook example of “extreme flight risk.”
I’d have been shocked if he had been released.
“Payed” (in link.) Tch.
That must be that Arab clown terrorist, Payed bin Faisal.
I love this from the article about remanding Bundy.
According to The Las Vegas Review-Journal Carol Bundy, after her husband’s hearing, said: “This just proves the federal government is totally out of control. Where does it say in the constitution that the federal government has jurisdiction over a sovereign state of Nevada?”
It’s in your pocket constitution BITCH!:smack:
The Supremacy Clause of the United States Constitution (Article VI, Clause 2) establishes that the Constitution, federal laws made pursuant to it and treaties made under its authority, constitute the supreme law of the land.
I’m guessing these people would also tell you they live by the Bible but you won’t see them complying with any number of its tenets. These are people to whom facts are pretty much whatever it is they would prefer them to be.
Probably not so much a “flight” risk as an “armed bunker” risk.
He did, after all, live in Bunkerville.
Well, if he gets out on bail, we’d be likely to see another situation where 200+ people show up to “protect” him and keep the feds away. No point in allowing that nonsense AGAIN.
No way to confirm, but word in patriot circles is that new indictments for 2014 are coming out in the next few days and it’s going to be huge and there are going to be a lot of arrests.
In their defense, those pocket constitutions probably don’t say that.
I have one of those pocket constitutions. A very small one, which I do not, ever, tote around with me. In it, the entire text of Article II says:Each state retains its sovereignty, freedom, and independence, and every power, jurisdiction, and right, which is not by this Confederation expressly delegated to the United States, in Congress assembled.
Right there on page 117. States Rights!!1!
So they just make stuff up.
