On the same day that a jury acquitted the Bundy brothers and their fellow protesters for taking over federal land in Oregon last January, police in North Dakota today used pepper spray gas and a painful high-pitched siren, and then arrested 117 Native Americans and others for protesting a private oil pipeline across land they say belongs to the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe under a 19th-century treaty. In other words, it's fine to mount an armed insurrection so your cattle can graze for free on federal land, but not if you want to protect your sacred burial ground or your only source of water from a private for-profit oil pipeline company.
Both victims of government.
A jury decided to not convict oregon protestors. Deal with it.
Way different, unsung. One is a group of indigenous people still having their land and culture taken by force after hundreds of years, the other a group of white guys trying to commandeer public lands. You can't honestly be implying these situations are similar.
Both fighting over land rights.
Why dont you guys really say what's on your mind? The real reason that you are against the Malheur protestors is because they had guns. Just say it. Have some backbone.
I'll take your bait. It is about land rights, and how public land (emphasis public) should be managed. The entitled ranchers want to destroy the land while trying to make money, clinging to a dying occupation. The gun issue heightened the level of intimidation, but also revealed how entitled they feel they are.
When I saw the makeup of that jury, I just knew that these people were going to acquit one of their own. The fact is that these people feel that they are entitled to do whatever they want. Their culture says that if you don't want to listen to "The Man" that you can just go ahead and and act like a wild savage. They have enablers and pimps in the media that make excuses for these animals.
I'm sorry if that offends the PC Police, but I'm just telling it like it is. The sad part is that these thugs are now emboldened to commit more crimes in their own communities and against their own people. These people will never rise up and overcome until they address the problems in their culture.
Sad!

Perfectly stated.

Well played. For a second there I was going to commend you for using thug and savage the way they were meant to be used! I do agree that these guys are thugs. Crazy Mormon jihadists.

Well, those were some of the charges brought against them: possession of firearms and dangerous weapons in federal facilities use and carry of firearms in relation to a crime of violence
And yes, I do take issue with this:
It'll be interesting to see what happens next time a bunch of these idiots see fit to protest again. I don't think the Federal Government will be so patient with them.
Should have been scalped by an Apache helicopter firing a tomahawk cruise missile. That might have learned him.

I see. You support the murder of US citizens by militarized police.
