Feds Set To Cut Off “Militia’s” Public Power, Public Roads, And Public Phone Line

An official in Washington remarked that “It’s in the middle of nowhere. And it’s flat-ass cold up there. After they shut off the power, they’ll kill the phone service. Then, they’ll block all the roads so that all those guys have a long, lonely winter to think about what they’ve done.” Temperatures are expected to plummet to 18 degrees Farenheit, with snowstorms expected over the next few days.

I've read about his son, and about the father himself but.. did has he ever stopped grazing on federal land? Has he ever paid the fine? I doubt it.

and nothing has happened to him.

Now, with his idiot sons and their army o' fat guys out of the way I think it would be a really good time to scoop up the old man and his squatting cattle operation. Wouldn't have to fire a shot.

is Bundys... 14 grown kids and who knows how many armed f*ckwads leaching off the ranch. There should be drones out killing off the cattle and road blocks not allowing any more in or on the Bundy ranch until he's paid up, including jail time.

As for cutting off the roads, though, those asshats are going to start shooting and eating all the waterfowl that the sanctuary is supposed to protect.

Then air drop books on the Donner Party to them, after all we want them to be entertained.

Drop a single fifty pound bag of potatoes on them once every two weeks -we don't want them to totally starve; just be very very uncomfortable.
Set up ear shattering music 24/7 Muslim Devotional Chants would be best.


Set up communication jammers and then wait for Spring.
Also hand them bill's for the use of Federal Property as they crawl out.

Oh, and then Arrest them.

Of course if you drop books about the Donners with LOTS of pictures (send crayons too)

Don't forget the Packer party in Colorado

Those will make good fire starter for these champeen ignoramuses. And that would be aiding and abetting, they can figure out the Donner Party activities on their own I would guestimate.

The paranoid, trigger-happy nutjobs will shoot at anything that moves once the popping starts, thinking it's the big Fed raid they've been creaming their shorts for.

By morning, there won't be a single moron left alive, and they'll all be dead by their own member's hands.

That could indicate they will be using drones to remote monitor movements around the compound to contain the yeehawdists.

"See the Loons"

They could put up viewing telescopes like the state does at eagle watches here.

Have a contest where kids enter and make posters showing ways change can be done by even 12 years olds, who don't have to resort to violence.

It could be fun, and educational.

Block them in and make them wait it out all winter. Unless they have a medical emergency, don't let them out. House arrest, as it were.

And, just to fuck with them, send some drones to buzz around or do some fly-bys in black helicopters.

It really is "in the middle of nowhere". Nearest Wal-Marts are Bend, Klamath Falls, and Boise.

It's definitely empty IIRC.

Still, someone was talking about them doing supply runs to Wal-Mart, the other day. Maybe they were driving to Bend.

Shut off or block anything and anybody going in or out. Allow them no communication, no Twitter, no Facebook, no nothing. Arrest or shoot anyone who tries to approach the building to help them. Then let them rot. Tell them they can either lay down their weapons and surrender or stay there until they die.
