There is a White House.gov Petition to President Obama to:
"Arrest Ammon Bundy and the Armed Occupiers of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge"
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10027540969


The petition reads:

"President Obama,
We respectfully request that you end the armed occupation of the Malheur Wildlife refuge immediately.
At the very least, you owe the American people an explanation as to why the area has not been isolated.
Members of their organization can come and go as they please, members of the community can visit the occupied facility, and other right-wing extremist groups such as the Idaho lll% can show their support.
Law enforcement inaction up to this point is an egregious violation of public safety and emboldens their erroneous assertions that the US Government has no Constitutional Authority.
Please end the siege of the refuge and arrest Ammon Bundy as soon as possible."

To sign petition:
https://petitions.whitehouse.gov/petition/arrest-ammon-bundy-and-armed-occupiers-malheur-wildlife-refuge

So far, only 8,154 signatures have been gathered, and they need 91,846 more signatures by February 8 in order to force the White House to publicly comment on this illegal and precedent-setting occupation of federal property by Bundy and the other armed extremists.

Please sign the petition, and then recommend it on Facebook, Twitter and any other social websites that you belong to, as well as reposting the link to the petition at any news sites that you can think of, including Huffington Post, The New York Times, The Washington Post, ABC, NBC, CBS, NPR, MSNBC, The Nation, Rolling Stone Magazine, etc.
So far, despite media presence at the refuge every day, the MSM has very given little attention to this story.

Raw Story.com is the only website that is covering this story on a regular basis.


Here is a recent news story on Bundy & his armed right-wing extremists:
"Oregon Militants :LaVoy Finicum and Ryan Bundy Travel To Utah To Plot Another Armed Showdown"
http://www.democraticunderground.com/10141317764

(From the above article)
"Finicum said the occupied visitor's center, which the militants have renamed The Harney County Resource Center, was a symbolic victory and inspiration to other anti-government extremists."

5. No. The feds have a strategy to confound all

those who expect and even hope for violence -- only incidentally those of frustrated authoritarians as their main goal is to avoid feeding anti-government paranoia. Beliefs in a federal dictatorship and desert concentration camps would all be confirmed by even one death.

Can we have Obama make sure my garbage is picked up on time? They were late today, and....
