In my home state of Oregon. It has been reported today Jan. 26, 2016 that Ammon Bundy, his brother Ryan, plus 5 others were arrested after gunshots. One person was killed on Highway 395 near Burns, Oregon. Ammon lead a militia group who took over the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge back on Jan. 2. It is a fight over jurisdictional land control with the federal government.
Governor Kate Brown let the federal officials take over with the help of Oregon state police. She told local KOIN-TV news that she was concerned about the American Indian Pauite Tribal Artifacts that are stored inside that wildlife refuge.
The stand-off has cost Harney County & the state $100,000 a week. It's all because of Dwight & Steven Hammond who began their prison sentences for setting fire to acres of federal land in Oregon. The Bundy brothers don't live in Oregon & they brought all these farmer militia to the city of Burns. The Hammond's didn't ask them to do it either.
