Nicknames for the Oregon militia men. Stop it, you're messing with my brain.

Who are the Oregon miltia men? Good Lord, how have you managed to avoid this on Facebook? She must *really* have been consumed with the move and the unpacking!

I had explain this already because the various jokes about snacks doing the rounds were going over her head, too!

Oh, heavens...I didn't know.
I live in the midst of all this. The Bundys, the brothers who set up the refuge occupation, and now their father from Nevada, are all in the county jail right down town. I guess that's because the federal courthouse isn't safe enough, yet. Anyway, the perpetrators of the dumbass wildlife refuge takeover are right here.
For me, it has been a scream. These guys are led by a loony tunes rancher who talks to God. He seems to figure that he and his family are "The People" to which documents like the United States Constitution refers. That means he can somehow claim all the federal land he wants to graze his cattle, tap the aquifers, drill for oil and gas, and harvest the timber for his personal benefit. Our land is his land and there ain't no pointed-headed ratbastard federal land manager tellin' him what he can and can't do on HIS OWN land. Really, he told everyone God sent him to take over a wildlife refuge in the middle of the remote high desert of backcountry Oregon (about 350 miles southeast of where I am presently located). The folks that joined somebody like that can best be described as the "15 Stooges Armed To The Teeth"...nyuk, nyuk, kablam. "Hey, we're hungry here...Could you send some snax? By mail?"
Any way...the standoff at the refuge is over. The Bundys and other indicted and arrested co-conspirators are now lodged in other government facilities. Under lock and key. And armed guard. And so will begin the federal trial which most assuredly will be turned in to some kind of craven media grandstand for the delusional 'patriot' to air their brand of crazy. Be prepared to hear me roll my eyes quite loudly.
If you have questions, I can try to explain it better, but....hey...it's basically 'Murican nonsense.
