It’s not clear why.

Twitter has not yet explained Bundy’s suspension, but his last public tweet quoted a founding father to defend his own cause: “As Thomas Paine said, It is the duty of the patriot to protect its country from its government. #CitizensForConstitutionalFreedom”

    Interesting….He got the quote wrong…You won’t find it in any of Paine’s works because he simply never said nor wrote it. The actual quote is

    “A patriot must always be ready to defend his country against his government.” Edward Abbey A Voice Crying in the Wilderness (Vox Clamantis en Deserto) : Notes from a Secret Journal (1990) ISBN 0312064888

    Militia? Bwaaaa. General George Washington insisted that a decision to “place any dependence on Militia is assuredly resting on a broken staff” http://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/myths-of-the-american-revolution-10941835/
    Hey General Washington! We need socks & Scooby snacks or no can do!

    This Bundy needs to spend more time ranching in Nevada where he belongs and less time tweeting from Oregon on illegally occupied government land.

        Federal charges have been filed…
        Details will be released soon…
        And the “protesters” are now splitting up, about half to stay on the federal land, the others are going to Hammond’s ranch…(recently heard it on TV)

    Poor fellow. He’s having a rough week.

    Everybody who heard of his story should suspend it out of their minds!

    I understand the ‘wait them out’ position being taken by authorities, however, I also think it appears to demonstrate a double standard in dealing with certain law breakers.

    Perhaps we are giving these people too much attention.

    Most of the quotes that inspire these “patriots” and “justify” their actions are as phony as the modern “patriots” themselves. They are as clueless as the politicians who sell it all to them. http://www.politifact.com/virginia/statements/2015/mar/09/rick-perry/rick-perry-errs-tying-patriotism-quote-thomas-pain/
