FBI moves in on last four occupiers at Oregon wildlife refuge
Federal agents on Wednesday closed in on the last four anti-government militants still holed up at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon after a 40-day-old armed occupation, the FBI said in a statement.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation said no shots have been fired and that negotiations to end the occupation without violence were continuing.
The four protesters were indicted last week along with 12 others previously arrested on charges of conspiring to impede federal officers during the standoff at the compound.
The takeover at Malheur, which began on Jan. 2, was sparked by the return to prison of two Oregon ranchers convicted of setting fires that spread to federal property in the vicinity of the refuge.
The occupation, led by Ammon Bundy, also was directed as a protest against federal control over millions of acres public land in the West.
Bundy and 10 others were arrested in January in Oregon, most of them during a confrontation with the Federal Bureau of Investigation and state police on a snow-covered roadside where a spokesman for the group, Robert "LaVoy" Finicum, was shot dead. A 12th member of the group turned himself in to police in Arizona.
The FBI said its agents moved to contain the remaining four holdouts Wednesday evening after one of the occupiers drove an all-terrain vehicle outside the barricades previously set up by the self-styled militia members at the refuge.

Good interview here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jYSdFvB6YbA&feature=em-uploademail Caravan To Midnight - Episode 467 Former Burns, Oregon Fire Chief Chris A. Briels It's a pity there are so many communist, Hillary lefties, and foreigners commenting and distracting the real issues behind the scenes. Like on #Oregonstandoff and other places that seemingly hate anything to do with freedom, our rights, being individuals, instead of being oppressed by lefties, special interest groups, etc.

Sam, I concur.
Check this out. The "lefties" view of things is really collectivism at its worst. Group think. Herd psychology, what owners of us all (the FED with its shit money) want us to keep doing: Be divided.
Dualism comes out of collectivizing us into groups. We know better, especially knowing what's worst. What I do is avoid being sided or choosing sides, I define Collectivism and upgrade the definition of "individualism" from selfish and ego-based to INDEPENDENT FREE SOVEREIGN BEING, and that usually turns heads 180 degrees. lolThanks for the link, btw

OH boy.. NOW we are seeing stage 1 of the actual sting..
The left overs are the non theater players, the goal of the false flag operation from the beginning. Next on the menu, the supporters of the Oregon siege.. Paypal isn't as anonymous as you think, neither is the post office.. but we already knew that.
Emotions block those little warnings when we act upon them. Like heard in the video, they are lost to emotion and the FBI is exploiting that nicely.. The further down the emotional rabbit hole they go, the narrower the options become and the more they get stuck in arguments.
We are next.
