Discussion for article #236630
Whatâs this âconstitutional activistsâ nonsense? Please donât give these clowns more credence than they deserve. These guys are little more than insurgents/domestic terrorists.
More likely they are âstanding downâ due to lack of news coverage. Doesnât look like the happening place they expected, does it?
I dunno, call me a cynic, but I think the way you demonstrate your fidelity to your nationâs most cherished ideals is not necessarily by standing around someplace among a bunch of heavily armed idiots like yourself until enough days pass that even you realize what youâre doing is kind of pointless and stupid and you all trail off home.
I couldnât get past the opening sentence for the article.
A group of armed constitutional activists providing security at an Oregon gold mineâŚ
Is this a stock lede paragraph TPM has on-file?
This? Is horsesh^it.
Can TPM ask itself the following and come away with an âaffirmativeâ for their description of Oathkeepers?
- Do Oathkeepers have authority to provide security for anyone?
- Do they have permits?
- Are they licensed?
- Are they incorporated?
- Have a Federal Tax ID#?
Then just stop it with the giving of credence.
Canât you just call them what they are?
A bunch ex-military and ex-LEO yahoos with guns-- and a heightened sense of paranoia.
Can we please introduce a modicum of sanity at one of the few trustworthy news-sites?

I wonder if the black community will start arming themselves to protect the hood against police abuse. They will get more respect and deference if they are defending their 2nd amendment rights like these winger Constitutional doofeses.
I have said this repeatedly! When will black folks start taking the NRAâs rhetoric seriously and start marching through nice, comfortable white communities while carrying long rifles? When will black folks start availing themselves of their 2nd Amendment right to resist tyranny with their firearms?
I will bet anyone any amount of money that if the Black Panther Oath Keepers or Muslim Oath Keepers had done this, there would have been a very different outcome than what happened here.
Fuck this noise. Arrest everyone involved and just make sure that the BLM contingent includes an FBI sharpshooter. Itâs way past time when the feds need to stop essentially appeasing these people. They are deranged and need to serve jail time.
The Oaf Kreepers are kreeping off to find a more media-productive venue.
TPM is getting worse every day. Sorry, but itâs the truth. It is becoming like the NY post
Sharpshooter? I was thinking drones.
So next time I donât want to obey the government Iâll just call the Oath Keepers?

But theyâre not âthugsâ right?
Black communitys did with the Black Panthers. The contemporary MSM molded American perceptions of the BPs differently than the current MSM does for the Oathkeepers. And Rupert Murdochâs evil empire had yet to land on these shores when the Black Panthers were around.
The task of filling in the blanks Iâd rather leave to you.
Itâs part of the Fedsâ âdivide and conquerâ strategeryâŚ
Keep the BundyBunchesOfOathers running to protect their constitutional rightsâŚ
The shitty framing language TPM is using here aside, where the rubber meets the road is when these clowns lose in court over the mining rights, which were in fact signed over to the BLM back in 1961.
Will the armed lunatics again try and run-rough shod over the rule of law?
Given this is Methford⌠er Medford down in Southern Oregon, we shall see.
I do not get why the guy even asked for their help. It sounded like a paperwork and confusion issue that was maybe going to cost the mind a little more. It seems like some people really like to yell persecution and government overreach. These are the same people that want to punish everybody that does not go their way.
Conservative business person committing some sort of crime against the taxpayers, donât worry there are people to help you violate the law and potentially escalate things to 11.
How so?
