They were on their way to a community meeting in a nearby town.

"Ammon Bundy and some of his group had been expected Tuesday night at a community meeting about 70 miles away in John Day, Ore., where he was to be the guest speaker. They never arrived."

None of the locals wanted them there. Bundy kept yakking about how he would only recognize the sheriff, but when the sheriff told him to leave he ignored him. This is what Bundy wanted. Notice though that he's alive and not wounded. The press was talking to one of the Bundy Dingbats who is at the refuge. He compared the shooting of a armed middle aged man to the shooting of Tamil Rice. An unarmed twelve year old boy and then made an ominous sounding statement about showing everybody a peaceful resolution. Well he could show how tough he is by moving outside and opening up on the officers on the perimeter. Bet that won't happened.

I wonder if there will be more of the Right Wing Milita headed in to defend the ones already there?

Already Cliven Bundy has given a warped view with his interview with the LA Times.
Isn’t this a wonderful country we live in?" Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, father of Ammon and Ryan, said sarcastically when the Los Angeles Times informed him about the arrests and the death.

"We believe that those federal people shouldn’t even be there in that state, and be in that county and have anything to do with this issue. ... I have some sons and other people there trying to protect our rights and liberties and freedoms, and now we’ve got one killed, and all I can say is, he’s sacrificed for a good purpose,” Bundy said.
With the death of one person, Robert "LaVoy" Finicum, a martyr has been created for their cause. Just waiting for Trump and other GOP wing nuts to jump on the bandwagon and complain about government intervention and the death.

The FBI and state police staked out a spot along the route to John Day to stop the caravan. At first, both vehicles complied with an order to pull over, but then the lead vehicle took off, the law enforcement official said.

It didn't get very far, hitting a snow bank. Finicum, the official said, jumped out of that vehicle "brandishing a firearm." He was shot and killed.

Ryan Bundy, 43, of Nevada, was also struck by gunfire. He was wounded in the arm, the official added, and was released Tuesday night from a local hospital where he'd been treated for the gunshot wound.

The official did not know who fired the shot or shots that killed Finicum, 54, of Arizona.

I'd like to know how, at this early stage, Ammon managed to talk by phone to Cliven. That part bears some explanation, for me.

I was thinking though, since the conspiracy theories are going to flow like water, we should start one of our own. We should release a statement that the LGC, on good authority from a guy we know heard from a chick he used to date who is now dating a guy in uniform (we won't say which uniform) that he heard it from his buddy who really anchors the bowling league but gets too drunk at the victory parties that Ammon Bundy shot LaVoy Finicum so the whole thing looks like the cops did it. We should get that statement out ASAP.

We'll be lying in our teeth, but we'll be famous. :D

Sorry CD, We know it was Hillary because it was like Bengazi. Just like her murder cases in the 1990s. She tried to take his guns and he got shot. Her and Bill have always run the government that's what's wrong today. She even made Fox News select Megyn Kelly for the debate, so our hero, The Donald, would not show up.

They've put out "the call" for reinforcements. They are going to find out about things. Like crickets.

At the link are a couple examples of this "call". Legends in their own minds, Sagebrushers.

Ammon Bundy urges last refuge occupiers to go home
And some super-sized denial,
"Patrick, who remained at the refuge following the arrests and acted as spokesman for the holdouts, told Reuters by phone on Wednesday that some protesters were leaving, but rejected the word “surrender.”

“I don’t know what surrendering looks like,” he said. “They’re walking through the checkpoint and going home. That's what I've heard unless I'm being lied to.”
Looks like felony charges are already being passed out. I just hope they don't get watered down to misdemeanor.
Fucking finally.
