Bundy Files: Armed "Constitutional Advocates" Support Lincoln Mine Owner

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 Kornec’s 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.

Thugs,the road to this mine claim is one way in and one way out,there you are Justice Dept. Just bring a Bull Hauler and load them up. The Rules are the Rules,we had zero issues when asked to close our Patented Claim. We still are allowed to rock hound and admire the Native Art work.
