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;
They murdered him.
It was murder
it was a planned ambush , and they planned on killing them all and then they would have claimed self defense as all of the videos would magically disappear
Obviously
He was murdered, plain and simple. Watch all the videos and the close ups.
Clarann McCombs Pike That is not how facts are taken to court. Let the facts take their time and again hopefully the truth will come to light.
Damn protesters
The angle they are showing right there! Is the reason he reached for his side, not to grab for a gun, they opened fire on him! Take it however you want! It was murder
There is no doubt , that it was intentional ! All those involved are murderers ! Anyone who thinks otherwise is a moron , and a submissive coward ! If you don’t STAND FOR FREEDOM , then where will you hide ? Everyone of these cowards have been identified , yet not one has been arrested ! So —– if you stand for freedom and care about the abuse of yourself and other’s , stay out of the communist state of Oregon !
Murder by cop man had his hand up
