1. VOX IS A FAIR AND UNBIASED NEWS SOURCE
2. Distorted report.
3. Want to explain how they were stealing land,cattle from the ranchers and others in the area? Yup lets transition to racism. Stepping on black people to prove a point disgusting.
4. Vox news, and they have something to say about killings in the Philippines today, and all kinds of untrue news about the so called" judicial killings" when they cannot even solve their own problems in their backyard!!!! geez Louise!!!!! from the American Indians and the African Americans etc,,,,goodnight!!!
5. whos here from Bill maher?
6. A big difference with law enforcement in the USA is the local and state police work under very different laws and operational rules to the federal law officers. Most of the deaths in clashes with police are with the local police, not the federal police. That's why the difference between clashes.
   
   The reason the federal government have control of the law goes back to when the areas were territories and not states. Now most of the land under federal control but not directly used by them is because they're part of the national parks system or similar national laws. I had a heck of a time sorting all this stuff out when researching it for a story.
7. Convicted as terrorist - Vox hired you as a shallow reporter. Congratulations Mr. Snarky.....Social Justice Warrior you. You are being used.
8. Wait... so the take away message is it's safer and better to protest with guns than without? Oh that and be white.
9. BULLSHIT!!!!
10. make the good guys the bad guys and the bad guys the good guys . . . all done by the liberals = our government has been BAD . . . and the old man was saying that he is not sure if "negros" might have been doing better as slaves then now . . im black and the stats show he is right
11. I now understand Rainbow Six Siege's map "Oregon" so much better now.
12. Your report is highly misleading. For example, the burn that you speak of was done to prevent wildfires from burning structures on the Bundi property. The issue is the wrongful taking of land by the Federal Government. The Constitution delineates the limited powers of the Federal Government. Those powers do not include "taking" State Land under Federal Authority!
13. looking at my country in this way makes me feel sad
14. They used the Hammonds as an excuse to recruit more supporters.
    This was planned after the TEA PARTY OVERTHROWING OF THE GOVERNMENT FAILED IN D.C.
    They planned facilities takeovers in all states as a way to start their CIVIL WAR.
    They thought this one takeover would inspire others to do the same across the country.
    I've followed them from the creation of the tea party to learn what were they doing.
    The tea party promoted and campaigned for anti diversity and anti multiculturalism which caused them to lose supporters when people learned that it was a White Nationalist Agenda that used words to fool those of races other than white.
    This was their last attempt of overthrowing the government with satellite rebellions all over the country.
    There's at least three videos Ammon made that revealed that this was not about the Hammonds, but was about Obama being President of this country.
    In those he spoke of the ACA, PUBLIC SCHOOLS, THE CONSTITUTION BEING VALID ONLY TO THE TENTH AMENDMENT, and other issues that had nothing to do with the Hammond case. He also said that their action had nothing to do with the Hammond case.
    Those videos along with the ones that show their declarations of war against the government/country, and those that was used as recruitment for armed fighters with the use of the Compound as their headquarters was removed from YouTube.
    THEY WANTED CIVIL WAR.
    Encouraged by THE C.O.W.S. and Ultra Far Right Organizations, FOX NEWS, Republican Politicians, Oath Keepers, Three Percent Militia, CONSTITUTIONALIST, C.S.P.O.A., White Nationalist groups overseas in Europe, Australia, and other countries.
    That's why Ammon said he had supporters with deep pockets.
15. So, does Black Lives Matter need to be armed or white to avoid getting assaulted by cops?
16. This video was all over the place. It didn't address anything but rather inserted random facts misconstruing the video.
17. They were lighting back fires to put out the fires the BLM lit to burn them off their land
18. amazing what it took, in the past 5 months, for white people to even consider what cops do to black people every day
19. Here's the story, shortened by an actual oregonian.
    
    The father and son owned a ranch. They burned the land to clear shrubs and brush, and also to make the soil fertile with ash. However, the land surrounding the ranch was government-owned, and they accidentally burned that. The father and son got sent to jail for arson, but eventually released. And then after that, the government decided to give them another harsh sentence. Basically overkill. These guys from idaho were triggered, and they occupied land in malheur state park, and thus the standoff began.
20. "Let's hope it's fewer in 2016'. Well, it's not looking good for this desired outcome.
