Oath Keepers put ‘boots on the ground’ to guard oath-breaking Kim Davis

[yuiyoshida]

The Oath Keepers, an armed, camouflage-wearing volunteer militia famous for hunkering down at Bundy Ranch, now say they have “boots on the ground” to protect Kentucky clerk Kim Davis, who they believe was denied her right to a jury trial.

Davis, the elected clerk of Rowan County, has become the current celebrity of the anti-gay movement for staunchly refusing to issue marriage licenses after the Supreme Court’s Obergefell v. Hodges ruling in June legalized same-sex marriage nationwide. After defying the highest court and subsequent court orders to issue the licenses, a federal judge held her in contempt and jailed her.

In a teleconference uploaded to YouTube, Oath Keeper founder Stewart Rhodes discussed the operation with Kentucky sheriff Denny Peyman, Missouri Oath Keeper John Karriman, and West Virginia Oath Keeper Allen Landieri. The group claimed that their new mission had nothing to do with same-sex marriage and insisted they were only offering to guard Davis because the judge had acted illegally.

“People should consider her under our protection,” Rhodes says in the teleconference. “We’ll make sure that our people are keeping a close eye on the situation and we’re going have boots on the ground to keep watch regardless, because this judge needs to understand that he’s not going be able to just go grab this lady whenever he feels like it.”

1. Guard her from what pray tell!? Her God she misrepresents? Angry mobs of gay people?

Seriously, could this clown circus get any more pathetic? YES! WHY YES IT CAN!

[underpants]

8. An Army of overall and shaded straw hat guys?

[Rex]

12. You got that one right!

Bullseye!

Maybe one day someone in law enforcement will wake up and label them a domestic terrorist organization. Their 'boots on the ground' is a clear declaration of war against LEO imo.

I know a penis, white skin and the tea party archetype will go far in this country...but how far is too far?

Enough is enough already...

[Marrah_G]

37. If you read it carefully it says they are guarding her against the US marshalls arresting her again.

This is some fucked up shit.

[notadmblnd]

2. Boy that oath keeper group- they're just a bunch or brain scientists and rocket surgeons

aren't they? SMDH

[randys1]

3. If this was the now nonexistent Black Panthers protecting someone, they would all be dead or in

prison before dinnertime tonite.

However since these are rightwing terrorists, and armed, NOTHING will happen to them.

[underpants]

4. Yes he is

The judge can order her before his court anytime he wants and if she doesn't show the U.S. Marshalls get involved.

The Oafkeepers can say whatever they want but the response from a US Marshall is going to be "I DON'T CARE!"

[yuiyoshida]

6. Would they be stupid enough to get into

a gun battle with the US Marshalls? They probably consider them Obama's army, . One wonders how stupid this could ultimately get.

[Rex]

7. Are they so stupid as to believe US Marshalls are just going to step aside for them?

Their traitorous behavior at the Cliven ranch has turned them into even more delusional freaks with guns!

[saturnsring]

9. Didn't the gov run away from them at the buddy hide-out

[Rex]

14. Tucked tail and ran like cowards. Said there would be 'a response' and then became silent.

Seriously, LEO better nip this one in the bud or we are all going to be in a sea of shit with these RWing firearm freaks.

[underpants]

15. No

They just surrounded them and let them sweat it out in the desert.

BLM and Vegas police (Clark County) decided that the whack job threat to their personnel was too great and they didn't wsnt that image especially having to do with a nothing like Cliven Bundy.

[saturnsring]

17. Right so then they packed up and ran away , bravely ran away but ran away none the less

[underpants]

31. So....

Are you anti-law enforcement?
Pro-Bundy?


Both?

[SwankyXomb]

34. I think he's on hold to order pizza.

[underpants]

35. LOL

[pinboy3niner]

16. There's no need for a confrontation

If Davis should be found in contempt again, the judge could order her taken into custody right in the courtroom.

[jberryhill]

26. Correct

And there's not going to be any "interceding" going on in that venue.

[Rex]

30. One would hope that is the case, but we are dealing with unstable people with firearms.

And their 'boots on the ground' can only mean they are saying the US Marshalls are enemy combatants. I think these Oathmorons need to really see and feel the inside of a jail cell...but the scary thing is it would just reinforce their cray cray imo, not fix it or reduce it.

[underpants]

32. That's what I was getting at

Using a movie catch line

[HassleCat]

5. OK, time to do something

These asshats are trying to set up a shadow government. A heavily armed shadow government, one that threatens to overthrow the rule of law. If thy want to provoke a confrontation they should be met by 1,000 federal officers who have orders to use lethal force. Why should the citizens of this country tolerate having their government hijacked by a band of armed thugs?

[yuiyoshida]

11. I am surprised they have not

adopted the Confederate flag as their banner.

[jberryhill]

20. What makes it "time to do something"?

There is no law against saying stupid things, or wandering around Rowan County, Kentucky saying them.

They are currently not interfering with the operation of anything.

[HassleCat]

22. I'm assumng they make go on their threat

If the stay home and masturbate to NRA videos, I couldn't care less.

[frankieallen]

23. orders to use lethal force? really?

uh, time to remove the tin foil an take a breath.

[HassleCat]

24. Sorry, but

A group of armed revolutionaries is threatening to overthrow our government. I thin i's a lot of macho swagger, but we need to be prepared in case they use force against the judge. Remember when federal troops had to enforce desegregation in the south? This is essentially the same thing.

[jberryhill]

28. They are yanking the media's collective chain

But I'm sure the Super 8 Motel out on I-64 will be happy to put them up for as long as they want to hang out, four miles outside of town.

[HassleCat]

29. I hope so, but

They showed up in significant numbers, heavily armed, at the Bundy Ranch.

[Kenjie]

10. This is not going to go anywhere healthy...

[joeybee12]

13. Lock them up with her...nt

[spanone]

18. what's the difference between militias & terrorists? will they shoot the judge?

fuck these gun nutz

[hifiguy]

19. No one is entitled to a jury trial if they defy a court order.

The judge issues her/his order, and you comply with it or you don't. If the latter, prepare to see the inside of the Big House until you change your mind, straighten up and fly right.

Morans.

[cwydro]

21. Last I heard they were going to supply weapons to the Ferguson protesters,

but I never heard anything after that.

Much ado about nothing.

[jberryhill]

25. It's just attention seeking

Note that their "announcements" have all been to the effect of "we're going to provide protection", and not that anyone has expressed any want or acceptance of it.

[Turbineguy]

27. Irony

is that like goldy or bronzy?

[rug]

33. That is an elegant headline.

[hobbit709]

36. Like all RW morans, they can't spell. It should be OAF Keepers.

[Mendocino]

38. Oathkeepers,

nothing but a brownshirt mob for the NRA. I've run onto a few of these guys. They are certifiable loons.
