OREGONIAN SAYS AMMON BUNDY IS A COMMON CRIMINAL
2016 Jan 18 from Richard Ellmyer
Special Agent in Charge of the Oregon FBI, Gregory T. Bretzing is following his colleague, Special Agent in Charge of the Nevada FBI, Laura A. Bucheit, down a very, very dangerous path. Bucheit abandoned her responsibility to arrest armed, white, Mormon, male Cliven Bundy for failure to pay one million dollars in federal grazing fees. Would her “equal justice under the law” behavior have been different if her target was an unarmed, dark skinned woman who was a Muslim or an atheist? Her cowardice in the line of duty inspired Cliven Bundy’s sons to lead an armed invasion to capture the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.

It’s time for Special Agent in Charge of the Oregon FBI, Gregory T. Bretzing to put up or shut up. If and when the Bundy bunch leaves the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, Bretzing must arrest them. Our political, judicial and law enforcement establishments have the legitimate, legal, moral authority, indeed, a duty, to protect persons and property from those who brandish weapons to steal what belongs to others.

The Malheur National Wildlife Refuge belongs to me and every other American. We want it back. NOW. Ammon Bundy and his belligerent bandits are both common criminals and domestic terrorists and must be treated accordingly.
