Don't be selfish, preserve this world for the next generations.
I'll never long for what might have been
Regret won't waste my life again
I won't look back I'll fight to remain

Clive Bundy's son is there too. Has anyone seen any coverage of this on the mainstream?

I haven't followed the ranchers conflicts much, but I can't help to think that this has something to do with Agenda 21 and land reclamation by the state.
Pushing people off the land and getting them clustered into cities seems to be the larger agenda. I'm sure it gets really annoying for people dealing with whatever strategies are used to accomplished that.

People say they all want the truth, but when they are confronted with a truth that disagrees with them, they balk at it as if it were an unwanted zombie apocalypse come to destroy civilization.

"The group claims that more than 100 people are taking part in the occupation, but reporters and visitors say they've only seen about a dozen people at the site... According to The Oregonian, "the scene can hardly be described as a standoff. The 20 or so militants at the refuge come and go as they please. No police were apparent Sunday anywhere between Burns and the 30-mile drive to the refuge."
Another man from Utah who took part in the Bundy standoff told Oregon Public Broadcasting that he was miffed by how few protesters showed up. “I feel quite betrayed. It’s been on Facebook that everyone is going to come. And we show up, and everyone just craps out,” he said. “You come up here, ready to get killed if we have to and these people are just on Facebook about it." He added, “I’m not here to shoot anyone, I’m here to get shot.""

^ good find, penxv
people 'show up' online but in IRL.
I have been guilty of this... I think its a reflection of the futility we see in actually changing shit. We get upset and WANT to fight but we see so much evidence that you just lose and things go on anyways, so we disengage and enjoy our immediate lives as we have them.
Tough collective state of mind to be in right now.

In Ironic Twist, the Bundy Militia Just Got Confronted by a Competing Group of Armed Lunatics
http://usuncut.com/news/armed-men-encir ... n-militia/
Ammon Bundy’s gang finally has the armed confrontation they’ve been preparing for. Just not with whom they were expecting.
As of Saturday evening, a group calling itself the Pacific Patriot Network descended on the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Harney County, Oregon, just as Bundy’s group was finishing a press conference. According to The Oregonian, Joseph Rice, a spokesman representing the new group of armed men, is presenting the Bundy militia with “Articles of Resolution,” ordering them to end the standoff and return to their homes.
What’s in the document the group presented to Bundy’s gang is unclear, as the Pacific Patriot Network is, so far, refusing to speak to media, citing a “media blackout.”
Other reports claim the heavily-armed group isn’t siding with either the current militiamen occupying the wildlife refuge or with government agencies. Nobody at the refuge had been informed of the Pacific Patriot Network’s intention to come to the occupation before their arrival on Saturday.
“Ammon [Bundy] felt blindsided,” Todd Macfarlane, an attorney mediating the dispute between the Bundys and the Pacific Patriot Network told The Guardian. “This was not a welcome development. We are trying to de-escalate here – then boom, they all show up.”
John Pratt, who joined the occupation after driving from Utah, told The Guardian the group was a “third party” who “do not represent the Bundys.”
“We’ve got this image with long guns – that is not what we want,” Pratt said. “If they’re coming to keep the peace, I would’ve left the guns behind.”
According to The Guardian, the Pacific Patriot Network was originally invited by Pete Santilli, a right-wing talk radio host, who wanted additional security on site to keep the peace, since local officials were clearly not getting involved.
Joseph Rice is also presenting the articles of resolution to local government officials.
