It's time to end this. Not only are they violating multiple laws but they are going full on ISIS on our collective history.

(15,806 posts)I was privileged to participate in an archaeological excavation. When we returned to the dig site one morning, we found it had been ransacked. What they didn't steal they left in pieces. It was heartbreaking. Never mind that our hard work had been undone, what mattered was the history that had been destroyed.
These putzes in Oregon aren't patriots, not by any stretch. They are armed vandals and should be treated as such -- period.

These people are destroyers, of the law, of history, and civility.
It's time for the whole shit eating lot of them to be hauled off to jail.
The only reason why they are not there already is because they are white.
It that is not the reason, I would like the BLM/NPS to explain WTF the reason is then.
