Does anybody have a FACTUAL, first-person, on-the-ground appraisal of what's going on with the miners and BLM in Orgeon?

If so, I'd like to hear it. Some folks fear it will be another Bundy Ranch. Some apparently WANT it to be another Bundy Ranch. I'd just like a no-bullsh-t assessment of what is really the situation at the point of threatened contact.

Regardless, we intend to take BLM fully to task and will not feel sorry for any civil or criminal consequences that may be leveled upon any BLM employees who are found to be negligent of wrong doing. We are actively pursuing these individuals through a wide range of tactics with the intent to reign in these wrong doers.

A 1924 mining claim is being pressured to shut down based on BLM claims that they are in violation of BLM rules that do not apply to established mining claims. I am gathering documentation from the miners for "off-site" storage as it appears it will get ugly. BLM has repeatedly cut locks and opened gates, allowing access to the miner's explosives storage by hikers and hunters while restricting their access for operating machinery. I have recommended they contact Mike and Oathkeepers and they have been working with the local Sheriff (Lewis & Clark County), but pressure is building and does not look good.; April 14, 2015 at 10:44 AM

Roger said...: Darkwing - Realy? One sided reporting? I remember hearing reports from the feds, from the Bundy's, and from people on the ground. I don't call that 'one sided'.

And, if the 'rules' haven't changed, why is it 35-45 years later they are now being brought to bear in the Galice Mining District?

Those who govern are always changing the rules because they think they can, and because we let them. And that has got to stop.; April 14, 2015 at 10:57 AM
Anonymous said...: No standoff at this time...mine owners have asked that people wanting to support to please "stand by".

My opinion: miners wanted to get the word out and get support from fellow patriots in case the BLM did try anything hostile and they have been trying to do "shows of force" in the attempt to intimidate the mine owners. Nevertheless, they are currently in legal litigation to fight the BLM and that should go through its process.

However, their are people that want this to "kick off" and are attempting to make this something bigger than what it is.

To clarify...this IS an overreach from the government and we need to support the miners. Nevertheless, pointing guns at federal LEOs is not the answer and people need to stop trying to hype this incident to this level.

Arizona State Militia members are apparently enroute and their support is appreciated but they're turning this into something it's not.

This is NOT A BUNDY RANCH and people need to know this. We're talking a hostile terrain of rain and snow and we don't need tards turning this into a circus.; April 14, 2015 at 3:06 PM

As an elected official in Galice Mining District, I can confirm that this is an accurate report and contains information that myself and the mine owner relayed to Mr. Bosworth by phone.

"Progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress."

I believe that liberty is the only genuinely valuable thing that men have invented, at least in the field of government, in a thousand years. I believe that it is better to be free than to be not free, even when the former is dangerous and the latter safe. I believe that the finest qualities of man can flourish only in free air – that progress made under the shadow of the policeman's club is false progress, and of no permanent value. I believe that any man who takes the liberty of another into his keeping is bound to become a tyrant, and that any man who yields up his liberty, in however slight the measure, is bound to become a slave. -- H.L. Mencken

"The Fate of Unborn Millions. . ."

"The time is now near at hand which must probably determine, whether Americans are to be, Freemen, or Slaves; whether they are to have any property they can call their own; whether their Houses, and Farms, are to be pillaged and destroyed, and they consigned to a State of Wretchedness from which no human efforts will probably deliver them. The fate of unborn Millions will now depend, under God, on the Courage and Conduct of this army-Our cruel and unrelenting Enemy leaves us no choice but a brave resistance, or the most abject submission; that is all we can expect-We have therefore to resolve to conquer or die." -- George Washington to his troops before the Battle of Long Island.

"We will not go gently . . ."

This is no small thing, to restore a republic after it has fallen into corruption. I have studied history for years and I cannot recall it ever happening. It may be that our task is impossible. Yet, if we do not try then how will we know it can't be done? And if we do not try, it most certainly won't be done. The Founders' Republic, and the larger war for western civilization, will be lost.

But I tell you this: We will not go gently into that bloody collectivist good night. Indeed, we will make with our defiance such a sound as ALL history from that day forward will be forced to note, even if they despise us in the writing of it.

And when we are gone, the scattered, free survivors hiding in the ruins of our once-great republic will sing of our deeds in forbidden songs, tending the flickering flame of individual liberty until it bursts forth again, as it must, generations later. We will live forever, like the Spartans at Thermopylae, in sacred memory.

-- Mike Vanderboegh, The Lessons of Mumbai:Death Cults, the "Socialism of Imbeciles" and Refusing to Submit, 1 December 2008

"A common language of resistance . . ."

"Colonial rebellions throughout the modern world have been acts of shared political imagination. Unless unhappy people develop the capacity to trust other unhappy people, protest remains a local affair easily silenced by traditional authority. Usually, however, a moment arrives when large numbers of men and women realize for the first time that they enjoy the support of strangers, ordinary people much like themselves who happen to live in distant places and whom under normal circumstances they would never meet. It is an intoxicating discovery. A common language of resistance suddenly opens to those who are most vulnerable to painful retribution the possibility of creating a new community. As the conviction of solidarity grows, parochial issues and aspirations merge imperceptibly with a compelling national agenda which only a short time before may have been the dream of only a few. For many Americans colonists this moment occurred late in the spring of 1774." -- T.H. Breen, The Marketplace of Revolution: How Consumer Politics Shaped American Independence, Oxford University Press, 2004, p.1.
