Meanwhile, the clown circus is now complete as the con-man Kerodin desperately searches for relevance in Oregon and belatedly decides that the Bundys are worth his time away from suing his enemies.

A reader sends this link with the comment "So what's different now?":"Supporting Liberty Forces in Burns."

Timing (and the absence of sensible adults) is apparently everything. You may recall that Kerodin made the vital error of turning his back on the Bundys during the successful action in Nevada and discouraging folks from assisting them. He chose poorly then. What has changed? Only his inner demons (and perhaps his handler) know for sure.

I noticed that Max Velocity wrote a similar piece so maybe he was just trying to play the agreeable minion. Whatevers. The guy is as irrelevant and impotent as his lawsuit againt Ken Lane.; January 10, 2016 at 4:49 AM

Chiu ChunLing said...: My view on the protest is that it is fundamentally silly, "Let's go out and have a protest in the middle of nowhere, where the Feds and socialist media shills will have inordinate power to shape the narrative!" But also that it is clearly a legitimate and Constitutionally protected protest, not a "false-flag" militia action.

There is a difference between peaceful assembly to petition the government for redress of grievances, which this clearly is, and any kind of militia action, (which the Bundy Ranch standoff involved). Kerodin, by making "support" about donating material, is making (probably deliberately) the same mistake as too many others (some of whom have probably ALSO made it deliberately).

All the Feds really have to do to end this protest is recognize that it is a legitimate protest and commit not to harass or prosecute anyone for it as long as there is no harm...effectively saying, "Okay, y'all can stay up there as long as you like, we don't really care."

Everyone would go home in about three days.

That makes it a silly protest. An effective protest has an audience even if the government ignores it. But it doesn't make it into a useless endangerment of lives or anything like that. Because if the Feds do turn this into a bloodbath, then they'll have blatantly violated the fundamental First Amendment rights of the protesters (the push to denigrate the religious opinions of the Bundys and marginalize the protesters own words in the media is a nice prelude).

And of course the only plausible pretext for saying this isn't a protest is to claim that your Second Amendment rights are contingent on forgoing your First Amendment rights. I think that people should think carefully before accepting and supporting that premise.

If I have to choose among my First and Second Amendment rights, I give up the right to peaceable assembly, then to speak my mind, then the right to practice my religion. After which, there is no reason for me not to resort to indiscriminate killing of anyone that doesn't make themselves sufficiently useful to my cause.; January 10, 2016 at 9:43 PM

I think he is now for the Oregon protest when he was against the "Bundy Ranch" protest because he found that he was on the wrong side of the positive public reaction to the Nevada event. Thus, making him look like a loser with no powers of perception to the moral question of each event.

I'm sure this aggravated him to no ends as he sees himself as a wizard with amazing powers of prognostication. Bundy Nevada proved him wrong to his minions on that call. He hates to be proven wrong on anything and especially his wizardness.

The way the MSM is using the Oregon BLM Station takeover event to really clobber "Militias" on the propaganda channels smells deeply of another False Flag, engineered to go hand in hand with the official DOJ position of Domestic Patriots are the biggest threat to the public in general.

On another vein, interesting development is that Sheriff Dave Ward, with whom Ammond Bundy met, was prior to becoming Sheriff was in fact a BLM Rangeland Specialist who was witness number 11 that testified against the Hammonds in the trial. No wonder he is taking the hard ass approach when meeting with Bundy.

"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.

"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.
