More fallout from capitulating to Bundy's insurrection.
LINCOLN Groups of armed self-described constitutional advocates are calling on reinforcements to join more than a dozen of their members roaming a Montana town in support of a mine owner who is in a dispute with the U.S. Forest Service over his claim.
Members of Oath Keepers, Pacific Patriot Network and 3% of Idaho said they came to Lincoln the former hometown of Unabomber Ted Kaczynski at White Hope Mine owner George Kornecs request.
They are calling their presence a security mission meant to be a buffer between the miners and any unlawful action by the United States Forest Service, the groups said in a news release posted Tuesday on the Oath Keepers website.

Oath Keepers is a national group best known as supporters of the Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy during a 2014 dispute with the Bureau of Land Management. The Idaho group gets its name from the 3 percent of Americans who fought in the Revolutionary War.
