On January 26, 2016, a relatively unknown American cowboy by the name of LaVoy Finicum was gunned down as he signaled he was no threat to the FBI agents who pulled the triggers of their weapons. Today, although many American citizens still do not comprehend the threat Finicum posed to the government of Oregon that caused the FBI to shoot an unarmed man in cold blood, other savvy citizens are starting to connect the dots. This single event is not an isolated tragedy in the greater scheme of events that have been happening in this nation since Barack Hussein Obama promised to fundamentally transform America.
In retrospect, serious warning signs about the threats to individual freedoms were quite evident when Finicum was gunned down in early 2016. Many educated people might have assumed that such intolerance for citizens demanding their rights died out with the Civil Rights Movement. That would be a mistake. The targeting and sanctioned murder of LaVoy Finicum in broad daylight shocked those at the epicenter of this event; they were stunned and numb in the wake of it. It was truly hard to digest that a top U.S. law enforcement agency could brutally execute a private citizen. Yet, citizen intelligence being reported at the time, through Canada Free Press and other free media outlets, was that Governor Kate Brown had been putting pressure on Comey’s FBI to put an end to the occupation of the Malheur Wildlife Refuge that had been seized and occupied by local militia leaders.
