About Time

The standoff with armed militia in Oregon escalated on Friday after police swooped in on one of the protesters to make the first arrest in connection with the two-week occupation of a federal wildlife refuge.

No, not for the takeover of federal property, but for driving one of the wildlife refuge vehicles - thus, a stolen vehicle - into town to buy groceries. What an idiot.
The arrest, which marks the first confrontation between law enforcement and the armed occupiers, came hours before Ammon Bundy, the leader of the militia, and the other armed men had planned to hold a meeting with the local community at which the occupiers said they planned to discuss ending the protest.
Oh? I thought he said they were prepared to be there for YEARS.

...but hey, do what you want...you will anyway.
