Powder Keg Occupation of Oregon Wildlife Refuge Just Needs a Spark

If things blow up in Oregon, things could quickly get out of control everywhere, and while we can only imagine what that will look like, the certainty is things would be ugly and prolonged. [More]

Like it or not, we’re all in it up to our necks.

3% of Oregon Official Press Release

Unbeknownst to the Idaho 3%, Oregon 3%, it’s leaders, associations, rally participants, or the citizens of Harney County; these actions were premeditated and carried out by a small group of persons who chose to carry out this takeover after the rally. The 3% of Idaho, 3% of Oregon, The Oregon Constitutional Guard, and PPN organizations in no way condone nor support these actions. They do not mirror our vision, mission statement, or views in regards to upholding the Constitution, The Rule of Law, or Due Process. [More]

Yeah, well, like it or not:

So the question, now becomes what are you going to do about that?

I'm wondering, since Donald Trump is a presidential candidate, if this doesn't merit the Secret Service at least looking into it, as they no doubt would were someone to repurpose it for Obama or Hillary...

We already know this sterling example of the opposition would rather see a woman dead than armed.

Oregon Standoff Report

Earlier today, I posted on the Oathkeepers  statement reiterating the wishes of the Hammond family that they were going to surrender themselves and did not want outsiders coming in and inflaming the situation. That wish was not honored.

I observed:

This has the potential to go bad real quick, and the repercussions may be far reaching, deadly, and exploitable by those who would use the situation to justify invoking extreme measures under the banner of national security. At this point, I would not rule out provocateurs.

Vanderboegh has an update and further observations, including the situation status as we now understand it. Read what he has to say. It's important:

• Perfect timing for the regime. Federal provocateurs, sociopaths and idiots with a John Brown complex are writing checks that they expect the rest of us to cash in our blood.
• The collectivists have begun to exploit it

Here is a statement from Stewart Rhodes:

Stay tuned.

UPDATES:

• The Google News feed aggregates all media sources.
• It looks like Ritzheimer's planning on dying.

For some reason, I'm reminded of the story of the African farmer and the leopard...

Instead of immediately pulling away, he went in first.

Arne Duncan calls for addressing gun violence in final speech as education secretary [More]

Funny. He didn't say anything about the jackboots reporting to him. Or what they're equipped to commit "gun violence" with.

Hey, if you're looking to blame someone, don't forget all those "Republicans" who voted to confirm him, instead of asking where the Constitutional authority is for the whole Department of Education fraud in the first damn place.

William Tell Overture

Whereas in 2011 numerous people in Switzerland voluntarily gave up their firearms, today more and more people are purchasing guns. [More]

They can come to grips with reality -- or they can listen to the siren call of contemptible personal weakness from Martin Boess, who ignores every lesson of his country's history, and presumes himself and his fellow "professionals" of being the Swiss Family Only Ones capable of handling such responsibilities.

Exploiting that illusion is not lost on those counting on Martin's advice being followed by those who prefer bowing to Gessler's cap.

Keeping Up with the Joneses

Mike, who has no use for the guy (and then some), finds a story that doesn't appear to make sense, and later addresses a bizarre accusation from out of left field.

In the interests of full disclosure, I've enjoyed the benefits of Alex Jones' amplified megaphone. I'll do it again if I get the chance.

In the interests of corroboration, readers here know that Drudge's refusal to feature stuff we've uncovered until bigger fish follow up on it has been a disappointment more than once.

Respecting Wishes

We cannot force ourselves or our protection on people who do not want it.   Dwight and Steven Hammond have made it clear, through their attorney, that they just want to turn themselves in and serve out their sentence. And that clear statement of their intent should be the end of the discussion on this.  No patriot group or individual has the right or the authority to force an armed stand off on this family, or around them, against their wishes.  You cannot help someone who does not want your help, and who are not willing and ready to take a hard stand themselves. [More]

Which kind of makes Ammon Bundy's call for action all the more perplexing, and makes it fair to wonder why, and who is advising him. Is it just a matter of not getting the word in time, or something else? Anyone with knowledge on this, please advise in comments.

That said, it's a BS sentence demonstrating the monstrosity of Leviathan, the judge who imposed it is a robed tyrant and the enforcers who will execute it are proof that some will follow any orders.

UPDATE: Things just got a lot more dangerous. This has the potential to go bad real quick, and the repercussions may be far reaching, deadly, and exploitable by those who would use the situation to justify invoking extreme measures under the banner of national security. At this point, I would not rule out provocateurs.

Cure for the Common Collectivist

“If I have a cold I can’t buy Sudafed without ID, but I can walk into any gun shop and walk out with enough bullets to arm a small army without showing any kind of ID,” Simon said in a joint release.  [More]

Yeah. If she's trying to cure a cold with a bullet, she really only needs one.

I'll even spring for a nasal inhaler.

And yes, I noticed these idiots have no clue that a bullet is a cartridge component. Who better to ban shoulder things that go up?

It figures oath-breaking former "Only One" Adams is a driving force.

"A dozen bullets every three months"...?

Heck, that'll give us more than enough practice to be competitive with New York's finest!

And here's my favorite part:

Penalty for the violation of this law would also be increased from a Class B misdemeanor, or not more than three months in jail and not more than $500 in fines, to a Class E felony, or up to four years in prison with a minimum of one year.

Who wants to chip in for more complimentary inhalers?

As what motivates me ain't the hardware, all I'm really prepared to do is pass on the link and invite you to explore it on your own and decide how useful it is to you.

One suggestion I have for all "for profit" gun-related ventures: Let your customers know how you are a leader in defending RKBA.
