Here is the food Ya'llQaeda has for their long winter stand-off!!

Bundy has repeatedly said the group is prepared for the long-haul. However during a tour of the site on earlier in the day, the Guardian was shown a food storage room that did not look like it could sustain a dozen men for more than a few weeks.

It included a cardboard box of apples and oranges, a few dozen pots of instant ramen, 24 cans of chicken noodle soup, a similar number of cans of sweetcorn, peas, beans and chili, and 20 boxes of macaroni and cheese.

There were also three sacks of potatoes, one bag of flour, another of rolled oats, boxes of raisins, a single bag of pretzels and one granola bar.

Really? Who planned this thing. Maybe we should send these idiots a DVD copy of the movie 'Alive' so they can on where they will find their food after the above food is gone. At least with the expected snow storm this weekend they can melt that for drinking water.

1. Who's going to eat that large bag of dog food?

[LynneSin]

2. If they are there for the long haul they may need to fatten up the dog.

[nolabear]

52. ...

[PearliePoo2]

81. That's funny?

OK......

[nolabear]

82. Well it's not serious. I wouldn't like them really eating the dog.

Clever take on the photo, making mock of a ridiculous situation. You know, humor.

[PearliePoo2]

80. "If they are there for the long haul they may need to fatten up the dog."

[emulatorloo]

76. The children they've brought in as human shields

[PearliePoo2]

79. They brought a dog to this mess?

A mess that is unlikely to have a happy ending.
They're likely to run out of food and water in freezing conditions.
Damnit, that's animal abuse, pure and simple.
Poor furry baby.
I truly hate these fucking assholes.

[DisgustipatedinCA]

3. This isn't an actual photo of their supplies.

I don't see a crate of Slim Jims anywhere in the shot.

[LynneSin]

4. You think a can of Slim Jims is going to last 3 days in that group

Just saying!

[DisgustipatedinCA]

5. They could make it stretch as long as they had some Sno-Balls and Circus Peanuts.

[dixiegrrrrl]

20. I think there is gonna be gunplay over that bag of pretzels.

Wonder which of them hauled the exercise equipment in?

[2naSalit]

34. The exercise equipment was there.

And obviously they have pushed that off to the side since they have no use for it.

But they have a Dutch Oven! But I don't see any fixins to make anything in it.

[Arkana]

74. I made the mistake of eating ten of those in a day once.

I've never been so sick.

[MohRokTah]

39. They had already gone through the two cases of Slim Jims prior to the photo being taken.

The boxes had already gone on the campfire, too.

[morningfog]

6. I don't understand. Are reporters coming and going?

Shouldn't the site be locked down?

[LynneSin]

7. They were but I think the lockdown is starting now

I have read that today the power, phone and other utilities are getting cut along with the roads blockaded.

If anything, allowing reporters in there was smart - it gave the Feds an idea of just exactly what they are dealing with. These idiots aren't the smartest folks out there and the fact that every militia group out there has disavowed themselves from the Oregon Ya'llQaeda pretty much shows that we're scraping the barrel of the Dumb and the Clueless.

[morningfog]

22. Good point re: letting reporters in to assess the inability of these idiots.

[yellowcanine]

59. It is going to get damn cold in there tonight if utilities get cut.

They are going to have to sit in the trucks with the motors running to keep from freezing. How long until they run out of fuel?

[MohRokTah]

8. The fools didn't even bring MREs or freeze dried camping food?

That stuff takes little storage room for lots of calories and these fools didn't think to bring that????

[2naSalit]

35. Well, you see

it's the thinking part that his tripped them up.

[Katashi_itto]

48. They brought plenty of Long Pig. They just don't know it yet.

[AngryAmish]

9. Maybe they have a pyramid for wheat.

[Chellee]

45. LOL!

[KingCharlemagne]

77. Your cleverness has me awestruck. Brilliant bone mot! - nt

[GreatGazoo]

10. have you seen the Gadsen for this?

I couldn't make it show here -- seems to be only on this FB page so far:

https://www.facebook.com/thePolitburoMocksTeabillies/photos/a.357397131053309.1073741829.355162344610121/794846707308347/?type=3&theater

I love that phrase fits with the snake's open mouth. Perfect.

[dixiegrrrrl]

23. That site also has this......

62. ....condemned to forget socks and snacks.... Lol!

That's brilliant.

[pandr32]

11. If reporters are free to wander around

...clearly the local sheriff could go. The Bundy clan has said before that the only law they recognize is a local sheriff, so send the local sheriff and get him/her to tell them to leave now. Either they will go or they will reveal that they, in fact, do not respect the one office of authority they said they did. Liars or comply...their choice.

[LynneSin]

13. They are cutting power and other utilities

Having the Feds ignore them is the smart way to go. Let them walk out of there with their tails between their legs. These people are idiots and should be treated as such but they are also armed idiots so let's not create another Waco.

[brush]

27. Agreed.

Let them walk out but into custody though.

No just go back to their lives like some are advocating.

They vowed to defend their takeover with their arms and lives.

That is sedition and they should be held accountable.

[workinclasszero]

12. Well they could take the Donner Party route....

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Donner_Party

[LynneSin]

14. I was just thinking of the movie 'Alive'

[workinclasszero]

17. There you go

[LeftyMom]

41. Oddly enough, there's a Mormon ahistorical narrative about the Donner party.

You see, part of the group were Mormon and part of them weren't. So naturally the Mormon version of the story is that the virtuous Mormon settlers definitely didn't kill or eat any people, and the beastly non-Mormons definitely did. So you'll get two monuments nearly side by side telling different versions of the tale at all the relevant sites up near Donner Pass. It's surreal.

[blogslut]

15. That is just sad.

Looks like they left all their proper end-times supplies at home, in their fear bunkers.

[Baitball Blogger]

16. But they brought Florida oranges with them.

[blogslut]

19. Don't wanna catch the scurvy, ya know.

Those damned protected birds are probably carriers. <winkyface>

[workinclasszero]

18. Damn the SHTF but they left

all their end of the world supplies back in their bugout holes?

Bad preppers!

[dixiegrrrrl]

25. "Mommy, I'm running away from home. Will you pack me a lunch?" n/t

[2naSalit]

36. Their

wiminfolkes wouldn't let them take all that stuff with them... probably because they would have to do all the work and probably go along to do all the preppin.

[3catwoman3]

51. "Fear Bunkers"

What a perfect term.

[peace13]

21. Grown men surviving on chicken noodle soup and macaroni and cheese.

No shortage of carbohydrates here. I think the FBI can walk in at nap time after lunch with zero issues. Glad they didn't waste the space packing sleepy time tea!

[LeftyMom]

42. None of those manly men know how to cook anything without instructions on the back.

[peace13]

49. True!

[workinclasszero]

24. I bet these are all gone...

[Jim Beard]

69. Brother Dave Gardner lives!

[randome]

26. "And if worse comes to worse, we have Cousin Alvin. No one much likes him, anyways."

[hr][font color="blue"][center]I'm always right. When I'm wrong I admit it.
So then I'm right about being wrong.[/center][/font][hr]

[johnp3907]

28. "...and one granola bar."

Who snuck that hippy food in???

[onethatcares]

53. the fuckin hippies

were right.

The longer I live, the more I realize that.

[woodsprite]

29. Looks like the cast iron pot they brought would take about 3 cases

of soup to fill up. Guess we shouldn't call them "preppers".

If they're Mormon, wouldn't they know better about stocking food supplies. I wonder if they're hiding it someplace else.

[2naSalit]

37. They've still got those trailers...

which probably have the real important stuff like ATVs and ammo.

[SpookyDem]

40. pretty sure this isn't the only food cache. nt

[LeftyMom]

47. That beige bucket is some kind of survivalist food stuff. Can't see what, its facing the wrong way.

I think that's what the foil packet in the box in the foreground is as well.

[LynneSin]

57. Unless it's 'Just add water to make an entire ham dinner from a tsp of powder'

those guys are screwed.

There are about 15 of them and they claim they can survive for years up there. They are assuming that the Federal government, which they despise, will continue to allow the mail (run by the federal government) to deliver packages and to allow the roads (maintained by federal government) to stay open for as long as they are in there. They are idiots.

If they really wanted to survive each person coming in there should have brought along enough MREs to survive for a year. Surviving in mother's basement does not make one a survivalist.

[uppityperson]

68. I've a couple of those, full of cat litter. Don't judge the inside of a bucket by its color.

[Gothmog]

30. These terrorists are idiots

[edbermac]

31. Where's the beer?

[ChisolmTrailDem]

32. Can't survive without Ramen, right?

[Egnever]

33. That can't be a real pic can it?

They brought a weight bench?

Looks more like someones garage.

[2naSalit]

38. That's the rec-room

at the compound, they didn't bring that stuff with them.

[Bucky]

64. I'm assuming every room they control is the wreck room at this point

I just hope someone warns them "eating crow" is only a metaphor

[libdem4life]

83. Two of them, no less. Good word play.

[WhiteTara]

43. A bag of flour? I wonder who's going to make the pies and bread.

I think that they each thought someone else would take care of the food.

[csziggy]

61. I bet no one brought any yeast

And I doubt wild yeast will be floating around this time of year in that area. A DUer posted a message in the Cooking and Baking group about making bread with wild or natural yeast so it is possible - http://www.democraticunderground.com/115755467. But those militia guys likely have no clue how to make bread if they were given lots of tools and all the ingredients in the world.

[KingCharlemagne]

78. or salt - nt

[csziggy]

86. They have lots of canned soup and ramen noodles

And boxes of macaroni and cheese. Those all have plenty of salt.

[KingCharlemagne]

87. True, but difficult to extract it for the purposes of baking with it (or

preserving game, for that matter

[MineralMan]

44. Where's the case of Cheetos?

Wingnuts need Cheetos for survival. Poor planning.

[LeftyMom]

46. I hope they brought their blood pressure pills. Lookit all that salt.

[KamaAina]

50. Some survivalists!

[ohnoyoudidnt]

54. They call themselves a militia and that's what they brought for food?

[hedgehog]

55. No onions, no garlic, no canned tomatoes, no broth no salt -

that makes for some terrible home made soup.

[onethatcares]

56. ever try to cook ramen noodles on an open fire?

it's not a pretty sight.

[LynneSin]

58. Maybe they all had watched season 3 of 'Orange is the New Black'

Ramen Noodles = seasoning packets

[applegrove]

60. I saw an open case of Coors' light there too on cnn.

[Bucky]

63. I see they didn't forget the dumbbells, tho. Also, there's exercise equipment there.

It's a flawed plan, but at least they're trying to address their probable iron-deficiency

[catnhatnh]

65. The most substantial food in the photo appears to be a case of soup

I checked and being generous it comes in at under 200 calories....that makes a total of 4800 calories. But guess what:
Calories provide the energy you need for travel and warmth in the winter
environment; your body’s caloric needs are much higher in a winter camp
environment, 3600-6000 calories per day! This amount translates to 2 _ lbs or
more of food per person. Factors that influence caloric intake include weather,
body size, weight activity level, etc.

Once the heat goes off they are fucked...

[madinmaryland]

66. I'll donate a couple of cases of Beanies and Weenies...

[uppityperson]

67. Another Guardian article said some ranchers delivered a couple frig's full of beef. They're no fun

"one granola bar"? SEND SNACKS!!!!!!!11

[LynneSin]

71. The feds need to block that shipment and reroute the delivery...

to a local homeless shelter in Oregon.

More than likely there are real veterans who have served our country who could probably benefit from that food unlike these ammosexual wannabe soldiers who don't have a fricking clue what patriotism is all about!

[hopemountain]

70. did anyone remember ass wipes?

"welp, we'all had to buy our matching cowboy hatz."

[LynneSin]

73. If we send Sugar Free Gummy Bears...

Ass-wipes aren't going to help them at all!

[Arkana]

72. Day 3: Out Of Ramen

I'm hoping this devolves into a Lord of the Flies type situation.

[LynneSin]

75. I have a feeling it will be more like 'The Walking Dead'

[libdem4life]

84. Then there is The Hunger Games.

[rjsquirrel]

85. There have been DUers

all excited to insist these guys were serious preppers and hardened outdoorsmen and therefore surely brought enough fuel, food, and water to hold out for years. It came up in a few threads over the last few days.

Mocking these guys is not only the best response, but appears so far to be entirely deserved by these losers... They can't even play soldier convincingly.

The derp is strong. The lulz are constant!


I still favor killing the power, setting up a perimeter of machine gunners, and dousing the building in thousands of gallons of water from fire hoses or helicopter dumps. Get them soaking wet with no way to warm up and they will either crawl out begging for mercy or become delirious and unable to respond if they stay frozen too long.

The interior of the building will be a loss. Repo everything these loons own to pay for rebuilding.
