“Ammon Bundy is leading an on-demand, anti-mask militia. Some members have ties to far-right organizations.

Since last March, when he launched People’s Rights — which he describes as “neighborhood watch on steroids” — the organization has attracted tens of thousands of members and sponsored more than 50 demonstrations across the country, dispatching gun-toting activists to the homes of politicians, health agency managers and even a police officer who had arrested a protester.
Experts who track extremists say that the network has significant overlap with white supremacist groups and other far-right organizations and that it has whipped up paranoia and rage, risking lives of hospital workers, health officers, politicians and others in the crosshairs.”

What’s it going to take for a jury to put this MORmON behind bars where he belongs?

That wasn't enough the last two times he took up arms against the government.

If he's doing this in other states and causes problems, he can be charged and tried in those jurisdictions. That's an important fact. Not every state is Idaho and not all jurors are Idahoans.

I suppose, but the guy who incited the Jan 6th armed insurrection has still not paid any consequences, and they killed a cop and 4 other people, so why should we expect Justice to be served to this little armed insurrectionist when he's just out forming armed conflicts with the cops over babies?
And only one MORmON nut job has died so far, so what's the big deal?
I mean, it's not like thousands of armed militiamen can do THAT much damage.
IT's ironic that there's so much talk about secret combinations of men in MOrmonism, but what is armed Mormon militias forming through social media?

John Doyle Lee would be proud of Bundy AND Mike Lee (related?)

I'd ask how / why these ppl got to the point in life where they are, but unfortunately it's too late to matter.


From Mr. Nelson regarding Bundy & extremists in general:



(his Silence is Deafening)

More photo-ops, Mr. Nelson, like you did in Seattle?

Bundy is doing significant harm to the church. He's exposing the rift between the two wings of Mormonism and refusing to go away, which the Q15 doubtless would like.

I despise the man but sort of enjoy seeing the church on the horns of this dilemma.

There is no 'dilemma'.
A group of Mormons led two armed confrontations with the US government and were never disciplined by the church and remain members in good standing.
Meanwhile, if you're an institute teacher who teaches real history about the church, like Ken Clark or write an honest book, like Grant Palmer, you get excommunicated.
Where's the moral dilemma?
Mormons are perfectly clear where they stand morally.
Any wonder Mormons supported Trump more than any other demographic, besides white Supremacist Evangelicals?

Of course there is a dilemma. The church will pay a big price if it has to excommunicate Bundy, but the longer he persists the greater the pressures on the Q15 to take that step. That is a political dilemma.

You can recite the historical facts and the tergiversation all you want, but that does not in any way obviate today's political exigencies.
