Pictures reveal $6m of damage by Bundy militants

Posted by | March 24, 2016 21:00 | Filed under: News Behaving Badly


And all those nice people wanted to do was reclaim what was already theirs.

The US Fish and Wildlife Service released new photos from the scene of the 41-day standoff at a wildlife refuge in eastern Oregon, showing that protesters left behind trashed buildings, damaged facilities, a compromised septic system and government offices with missing possessions.

The images from the Malheur national wildlife refuge in rural Harney County – where anti-government activists, led by Ammon Bundy, staged a takeover in January to protest federal land-use regulations – show piles of garbage, offices turned upside down, abandoned camping gear, food and alcohol, broken walls and excavated grounds.

Government officials who run the bird sanctuary have also revealed that the cost of the occupation for the federal agency is at least $6 million – a number that could grow as workers continue to assess and repair damage.

    I hope they’re ordered by law to pay for the damages.

      They have no real money, the taxpayers will pay for it. I just hope the right-wing taxpayers realize this. They encouraged it and now they will pay.

        Then I hope it will add time in jail for them :)

        Some of them have farms… There’re still dildos unaccounted for. Firearms.

        I vote for civil forfeiture.

          I am guessing they were pretty leveraged and their net assets may be in the negatives. That is why they were there protesting, they wanted more free loading at our expense.

            I guess we could split the baby – they get the debt, we get all their property to compensate for damages. Then attach any income to make up the difference.

      Didn’t they have a go fund me site? If anything was collected, it should be given to the government. I am sure it wasn’t much, but they should lose their pickups and their mobile homes.

      >>I hope they’re ordered by law to pay for the damages.

      When have conservatives ever paid the cost of their actions and policies?

      • Gina Bousquet March 25th, 2016 at 12:10

        Well, they’ve been charged, I’m hoping for some real time behind bars.

    • granpa.usthai March 25th, 2016 at 09:35

      I hope they’re ordered to go right back up there on prison work details and…

      BE HELD F’ING RESPONSIBLE FOR THEIR OWN ACTIONS.

      • Gina Bousquet March 25th, 2016 at 12:07

        Absolutely, yes!! :)

    Besides being stupid they are pigs.

  3. Mensa Member March 24th, 2016 at 21:31

    Between idiots like the Bundys and three trillion dollar wars, America can’t afford conservatism.

  4. mistlesuede March 24th, 2016 at 23:03

    All of us taxpayers and especially those in Oregon get this present in their tax bills.
    Appalling.

    They’re the type of dirt bags that don’t wash their hands after visiting the bathroom..ugh

    • whatthe46 March 24th, 2016 at 23:53

      don’t wash their hands? hell, that’s what they use. probably think it’s chocolate icing for their cakes. oh crap. darn. ugh.

      • Patty K. March 24th, 2016 at 23:59

        Seriously funny you are…can’t stop giggling!

        • whatthe46 March 25th, 2016 at 00:10

          i grossed myself out and laughed and then grossed myself out some more.

            When I looked at the draft of 6455 dollars, I have faith that brother of my friend was like really generating cash in his free time with his PC..wt His aunt’s neighbor has done this for only 11 months and by now repaid the loan on their home and bought a new Car.

    How about letting them work it off in prison ….for a dollar a day?

    • John_St_John March 25th, 2016 at 11:25

      10 cents a day. They need to be made to suffer the consequences of their actions, so I say 10 cents a day until the fine is paid in full or they expire in prison.

    They were defecating inside on the ground like animals, peeing on walls and getting drunk.

    Take civil actions against their property, just think of the new Bundy National Wildlife Refuge
