I would encourage you all to read about him. I personally never heard his name mentioned during the occupation of the refuge. I personally believe from what I saw, the government agents killed him with no just cause. I never once heard about him or ever saw the videos until now of how he was killed. You may or may not agree with the occupation of the refuge, but I can see no way he should have been killed.

I missed it. I never heard about him until last night I watched a show on PBS about it. I firmly believe the govt suppressed all info about him, because they could not justify his shooting.

I won that game of Clue in the last thread; Ron Horuchi, from the bushes, with his sniper rifle.

Other than getting shot to death by government agents, what is there about LaVoy Finicum that we should know or admire?


What from Christ that soul can sever,
Bound by everlasting bands?
None shall take thee
From the Strength of Israel's hands.

He was killed because,like others,he couldn't follow a few simple instructions from authorities.No ones fault but his own.

Boco and Beav- they murdered him. He was ambushed. He was outside of his vehicle, nothing in his hands and in plain view. I'm not saying that everything he did was ok or acceptable, but they didn't have to kill him. With that many police around him, he could have just as easily been tased or something. He was shot when he wasn't a threat. That's murder.

I for one don't believe we are hearing or seeing the whole story.
If He wouldn't have been there he would still be alive. So why was he there? Did he have a dog In the fight?

I'm not sure we are hearing the whole story either. That doesn't change the fact that the police could have apprehended him without taking his life.

Folks - you don't have to be there - there was a drone overhead and it was all recorded. You can clearly see when he gets stopped and the law enforcement never approach his vehicle in minutes - they never approach, he leaves and then is gunned down after exiting his vehicle.

Yes, he did have a dog in the fight. He was a rancher from Arizona and was tired of government interference and over reach. He was there to stand for something he believed in - freedom as an American from an overburdening govt. Same thing the Patriots who founded this country were doing.

The way Obama was hating on cops at the time, i'm sure they were in the good or there would've been a trial.

The vehicle took fire before he got out....L shaped ambush not a traffic stop.

You are correct - they all were shot at well before he exited the vehicle - shot at for what reason. Please tell me - what reasons did any law enforcement have to discharge weapons from the sides before any threat was identified? Video from inside the truck clearly show glass shattering in the truck well before he ever got out.

They forgot to say "we're from the Government and we're here to help you."
