After an arrest had been made during a traffic stop where gunshots were fired, Oregon militia leader Ammon Bundy was arrested and charged with domestic terrorism.  

Bundy, along with five other militia passengers, are currently waiting for a federal flight to Guantanamo Bay military prison and will wait until the government decides what to do with them.

The two-month standoff ended with violence after at least two men were shot and one killed, but the suspects are now in federal custody.

FBI Director James B. Comey told CNN, “Bundy is currently at Portland’s International Airport where he awaits a flight to Guantanamo Bay. It’s standard procedure for assumed terrorists.

“Gotta love the Patriot Act.”

Bundy’s lawyer, Al Kelly filed an order to have him stay in America where his client is guaranteed constitutional rights. “Why the Hell are they sending him to Guantanamo? We don’t know what type of right he will or will not have. This is gross miss justice by the US government. Now I know how those Arabs feel. Innocent or guilty, you are stuck in judicial purgatory.

“If this is a scare tactic, it is uncalled for, and we will fight this charge.”

    Satira Tribune… Is this another “Onion”? Personally I truly dislike articles like these posing as real news… It’s tough enough sorting through all the screaming without “satire” hiding out amongst the chaff…

    • zoranvedek

      ….alright now, work with here–the name of the site is “Satira Tribune”… say it slowly and let it sink in….

      …Satira Tribune

      one more time just for good measure….

      “Satira” Tribune….

      …now I know we all don’t speak Latin in everyday conversation(well actually we use/borrow a lot, but I digress….)

      Satira—say it with me, “SATIRA”

      …you know if you simply switch the ‘A’ at the end with a vowel of equal, lesser, or greater value you might have your answer. I wonder how an “E” would fit in there….
      …hmmmmmmmmm

    “‘We don’t know what type of right he will or will not have. This is gross miss justice “‘ – someone needs to learn how to write. Education is a good thing.

  • Danny Mathey

    Wow !….Just think !….If this was really true !….. But. Satire can be a real Bitch at times…huh ?

  • qofdisks

    Not a tactic, the Patriot Act and it is Unconstitutional. I think they are domestic terrorists regardless but, there is plenty of room to handle this under the Constitution.

    • Drakenfly

      Of course you support big government killing citizens…cowards like you do that all the time.

  • edlobel

    Bundy is indeed a domestic terrorist and you will not find a judge to rule otherwise!

    • Drakenfly

      You cup the copsballs when sucking him…that’s not a question.

      • edlobel

        You still doing your mother and sister…that’s not a question.

    Sharp, 18, claims she was one of three people in the back seat of a white truck driven by Finicum, one of the armed occupiers at Malheur National Wildlife Refuge. Sharp says she and seven siblings went to the occupation site recently to sing Christian songs and provide “moral support for the protest of the federal government.”

    They left the refuge near Burns last Tuesday for a community meeting in another town. The FBI said it had information that Finicum and the others in two vehicles were armed.

    Finicum pulled away from an attempt to arrest him and Ammon Bundy, the leader of the nearly four-week occupation. A dramatic chase down tree-lined U.S. 395 ensued. As shown on an FBI video taken from a pursuing helicopter, it ends when Finicum swerves to miss a roadblock, nearly hitting an officer and plowing into deep snow.

    The driver quickly exits the video with hands in the air.

    That’s virtually the only point on which Sharp, of Lakeside, Montana, and authorities concur. While the occupiers said “America was fired upon by our government,” the FBI released the video on Thursday, saying Finicum had reached at least twice for a pocket containing a handgun. The agency said it wanted to present “an honest and unfiltered view” of the confrontation.

    Sharp said Thursday that as soon as the vehicle hit the snow bank, she heard shots hit the truck. It’s not clear on the video whether any rounds were hitting the vehicle.

    “He had his hands up,” Sharp said. “He was shouting that if they were going to shoot, then just shoot him. I remember him saying that if they shoot him, it’s an innocent man’s blood on their hands.”

    As seen on the FBI video, Finicum reaches twice toward a jacket pocket. Officers fire. Finicum falls to the ground. The FBI said it recovered a loaded 9mm semiautomatic handgun in that left side pocket of his jacket.

    Sharp said she heard three shots and saw Finicum fall. “He wasn’t doing anything aggressive, anything,” she insisted. “He was just walking with his hands up.”

    When asked whether Finicum reached for a weapon, Sharp said, “He was not showing any signs of aggression.”

    I love it, he got his wish to live for free on government lands; albeit, the land is run by the Department of Corrections. LMAO

    Is this story for real? I can find no other coverage.

    So let’s have a conversation about “satire.” Because THIS is not satire. Satire is not about just making shit up. Satire is about a clever distortion of truth in a way so as to draw attention to the already existing ridiculousness of a situation that is often taken for granted as “the norm.” Show me, please, where there is actual “satire” within this piece? The one line about “gotta love the Patriot Act”? With the rampant epidemic of lousy journalism and bad writing on the internet, do you think burying a throwaway line that far down in the article suddenly elevates it from “bullshit” to “satire”? Or do you ACTUALLY specialize in click bait to get advertising dollars from your site sponsors? Jonathan Swift mastered satire. All in the Family mastered satire. Hell, Michael Moore’s books do a damned good job at satire a fair share of the time. But this story, and the bulk of your site, isn’t satire. It’s a crass grab for money playing on the willingness of people on the internet to believe something when it’s what they really want to believe and a lack of faith in the intelligence of actual people. Not only not satire, but pretty much its opposite. You’re not exactly giving The Onion a run for its money.

    What in hell are these citizens being sent to GITMO a military prisons, they should be held in regular jail until there trial! It will turn out that these are trumped up charges. They have fired no shots, they have not committed any acts of violence they have not harmed anyone! Besides since when are Anerican citizens transported out of our nation? How are there lawyers and families supposed to get to them to see them? This sounds like a ploy of the Obama Administration to cause problems. If this is so then why aren’t those who’ve come to our nation as immigrants who have committed acts of terrorism not been sent to GITMO? Something is really wrong with this situation!

    • Carlton Fisher

      Aside from the fact that the article itself is a complete fabrication by someone who doesn’t understand that satire isn’t just about making things up, you do realize that quite a few of the prisoners that were in Gitmo following 9/11 (as well as some of the prisoners who are still there) are American citizens, right? That’s why there were many people protesting their treatment.

      • LK

        The whole purpose was satire did you miss it or were you constrained by having to think to hard over the rest of your statement.

        • Carlton Fisher

          While the author of the article would like to think this is what satire looks like, satire is more than just making shit up. This has about as much in common with actual satire as “cheese food” has with real cheese. That still doesn’t address your complaint about American citizens being detained in Gitmo, which actually happened.

    It makes no sense to me, that a Real Terrorist is not called a Terrorist, but someone that fights the Government for stealing their land is classified a Terrorist, who did he kill? This is unjustified, and shows us what the government will do if you stand in their way. Sending him to Gitmo? Bundy is not a Terrorist, but our Government is.
