Lavoy Finicum was ambushed and murdered by Federal agents, as is apparent in the video analysis on page 2. Vinicum was one of the ranchers protesting the incarceration of two ranchers in Oregon on a charge of arson resulting from burning brush on their ranch which spread to vacant federal land.
The two ranchers extinguished the blaze with no outside help, and the land is actually flourishing and more productive and less prone to experience wildfires with all of the underbrush gone, but the situation is more about control from Washington D.C. and the animosity that environmentalists feel for ranchers and Westerners in general who are occupying “their” land.
A number of ranchers and militia members, including Finicum, occupied a remote wildlife refuge in protest, and hundreds of government agents and law enforcement converged on the location in a show of force to let the nation know who actually owns this country.
There had been no violence exhibited by the ranchers or militiamen, but it was inevitable with so many officials and well armed government personnel that they would move to make an example of a citizen who would not be cowed. And so Lavoy Finicum was sacrificed and murdered to the gods of government power and authority.
See video analyisis of Vinicums murder, page 2;
Murder.
The only people who do not see this as murder are those within these law enforcement agencies who either did not take the Oath to uphold and defend Our Constitution, or those who did and didnt mean a word of it…..period.
Lavoy was shot in the back ! He was assassinated!
Obama assassion
They executed him.
The first shot was from a taser that caused a reaction then the one in front of him emptied his gun.
Ruby Ridge / Waco?… take your pick.
Sad thing he was a marked man and gunned down at the first opportunity presented no question about it because he represented ” resistance ” against the establishment and they needed to send a message to others like him
I don’t know about that paper I looked at the video probably 300x if not more. He got out of the truck he walked towards the open field he started fumbling in his pockets. Why did he do that will probably never know but, with the fumbling in his pockets and what was taking place, I would imagine the adrenaline was very high on both parties, so when fumbling in his pockets instead of leaving his hand in the air and continuously surrendering I guess that’s why with his hands in his pockets and from going around he was shot I watch the footage as I said 300 times and this is my conclusion. Should it have been done this way no not at all, is there trigger happy people or FBI agent I don’t think so, but I do believe heroism was going through a few minds as well as an adrenaline, as well as fear.
