Oregon: Grant County sheriff Glenn Palmer under fire for supporting Militia

News From My Home State of Oregon. It is Day 40 with the take-over of the Mahleur National Wildlife Refuge. A former occupier of that Refuge now wants to be a mediator between the FBI & the 4 holdouts. That occupier's name is Scott Willingham who fled the Refuge after Robert Finicum was shot & killed by an Oregon State Trooper. Scott has returned to Oregon to try & help. 

Sheriff Glenn Palmer of Grant County supported the militia & spoke out against the federal government. He said he didn't know about what he called the, "Ambush" of Robert Finicum. The public is outraged at Palmer's one-word statement. Finicum wanted to get to Palmer on the day he was killed. The public is now putting pressure on candidates to run against Palmer in the next Sheriff's election.

The drama continues ladies & gentleman. This is getting better than the TV western "Longmire."
