Note from Stewart Rhodes, Founder and President of Oath Keepers:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nSee the below video.\u00a0 Very interesting interaction between the Pacific Patriot Network (PPN) leadership delegation and the FBI (who were all kitted out with rifles, plate carriers, and chest rigs).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Among the PPN leaders are Brandon Curtiss, the founder of the Idaho III%; Brandon Rapolla, the Oregon Oath Keepers state CPT Coordinator; and Joseph Rice, the leader of the Josephine County, OR chapter of Oath Keepers (site of the Sugar Pine Mine operation this last year).\u00a0\u00a0 They are doing this under the banner of the Pacific Patriot Network, which is a coalition of groups from Oregon, Washington, and Idaho, including local Oregon Oath Keepers chapters (and note that they stressed several times at an earlier press conference that they are not a militia, but that is what the media, including alternative media, insists on calling them).<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
Their purpose there in Harney County is to help open a line of dialogue and to serve as a buffer to prevent another Waco incident.\u00a0\u00a0 This is a righteous mission, if done right, and we stand in full support of it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
\nHowever, at this time we are not<\/em> doing a national call out for other Oath Keepers members to go there.\u00a0 The local Oregon guys, along with the very capable leaders of Idaho III%, appear to have this mission covered (of being a buffer and facilitating dialogue), and less is more when it comes to keeping things deescalated, as is the stated wish of everyone involved, including Ammon Bundy.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\nUnless our guys in OR say they need our help\u00a0 for this mission, stay home and get your own AO squared away.\u00a0 Got a community Quick Reaction Force (QRF)?\u00a0 Have a neighborhood watch with real teeth? \u00a0 Can you answer the three critical questions of \u201cwho\u2019s on your buddy team?\u00a0 Who\u2019s on your fire team?\u00a0 Who\u2019s on your squad?\u201d \u00a0 Got a posse behind a good constitutional sheriff?\u00a0 Got Minuteman unit?\u00a0 Got civil defense unit?\u00a0 Got militia?\u00a0 If not, then you need to get that done before you even think of running off to another state, unless it\u2019s a dire emergency, like Bundy Ranch was.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<\/div>\nIf this situation goes south, and the Obama Admin turns this into another Waco, the crap WILL hit the fan nationwide, since there are no more free Wacos \u2013 not anymore \u2013 and you will have your hands full right where you are, and in reaction, the first thing you should do is organize town and county militias for mutual defense.\u00a0 And that is something we will all need sooner or later.\u00a0 So, start laying the groundwork for that now.\u00a0 Today.<\/div>\n
