Oregon; car thieves and pretend warriors

You’ve probably read already today that one of the Oregon “occupiers” was arrested yesterday for stealing a government vehicle from the wildlife refuge so he can run his errands. Kenneth Medenbach, 62, is cooling his heels in the local hoosegow on $10,000 bail after he was arrested at Safeway, another Federal vehicle was parked next to the one that Medenbach was driving, but that driver escaped arrest according to The Oregonian.

Both vehicles — a pickup and a passenger van, bore door signs reading “Harney County Resource Center.” That’s the new name occupiers have given to the bird sanctuary they occupy, which is about 30 miles southeast of Burns.

“The U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service is grateful for the quick actions from law enforcement,” said Megan Nagel, spokeswoman for the agency, which manages the refuge. “We will continue to work with law enforcement to recover vehicles bought and paid for by the American people to care for their national wildlife refuge.”

Medenbach has a history of squatting on Federal property going back a few decades, apparently. So that’s how they plan to overthrow the government, I guess – break the laws when it suits them and attract the legions of stolen valor warriors to Oregon. Because you have to ask yourself – who would join these valor thieves knowing their histories now? Only more tacti-cool models.

Speaking of which; Stuart Rhodes, the former Ron Paul staffer and current director of Oathkeepers assured us the other day that he has ordered Oathkeepers to stand down from their participation in the Oregon theater. Well, they’re not paying attention to him because our old friend, phony POW and wounded warrior Joe Rice, “coordinator” for the Josephine County Oathkeepers is out there. Stuart has has also issued a “warning” to Federal officials who might be at the Oregon standoff;

This is addressed first and foremost to the entire U.S. military, but especially to the military Special Operations Command and community. Secondly, it is addressed to federal LEOs, and especially to their SRTs, such as the FBI HRT (many of whom are former military special operations). This comes from combat arms and special operations veterans, along with veteran Sheriffs and police officers, within the Oath Keepers organization:

Rhodes is pulling the same stunt he pulled in Nevada – he has “information” regarding the buildup of US military personnel around the wildlife refuge and he’s reminding them of their oath to protect the Constitution, not the politicians. Stuart, first of all, I don’t believe your “information”. I didn’t believe it last year and I don’t believe it this year. Secondly, we don’t need you or your little band of tacticool warriors to remind us of our oaths. Your “warning” rings hollow – it’s a well known tactic of the tin-foil hat crowd to warn people about dangers that don’t exist and then when whatever they were predicting doesn’t happen, they say that it’s because of their information campaign that the plan was scrapped.

Rhodes’ evidence that the Obama Administration is considering the use of US Military against the occupiers comes from a linked Washington Times article that reported that the Obama Administration considered using military force in Nevada, but decided against it;

So, the military force hammer was, in fact, on the table during Bundy Ranch, as we suspected. Please don’t try to tell us it’s not on the table again, now. We know it is. The only question is whether the Obama Admin leftist weenies will be foolish enough to try to actually use it, and if they do, whether you will be foolish enough to obey their idiotic orders and obediently act as that hammer.

Well, that’s just immature BS. The Obama Administration “considers” a lot of actions. If they don’t use it, it doesn’t matter much, does it? Besides, Rhodes information that he made a big deal about last year was that SEAL and Special Forces snipers were actually on the ground. Now he admits that wasn’t true.

Samuel Johnson in “The Patriot” wrote; “The true lover of his country is ready to communicate his fears, and to sound the alarm, whenever he perceives the approach of mischief. But he sounds no alarm, when there is no enemy; he never terrifies his countrymen till he is terrified himself. The patriotism, therefore, may be justly doubted of him, who professes to be disturbed by incredibilities….”

I’m looking at you, Stuart – your paranoid bullshit could get people killed out there. But, then, that’s what you and your little band of valor thieves want isn’t it? I’m sure the Feds are more than willing to wait out a bunch of idiots who drive around in stolen vehicles and beg for lickies and chewies and socks from their supporters.
