Wait . . . they can get their mail from the post-office and then return to their occupied zone?

@5:

Unlikely, which means all those donated snacks are going to be gobbled up either by USPS workers, the FBI, or else Mssrs. Ritzheimer & Cooper are also going to be needing someone to send them a case of Tums and Dulcolax.

Freloaders! I worked my tail off for my snacks and these deadbeats come along expecting handouts?

Charles, there are no forests there. Its a wetland in a high desert.

@5: those are supporters who will take the snacks into the compound. presumably.

I certainly hope the feds aren't allowing people to bring the terrorists supplies. But, then again the terrorists are white so I wouldn't be entirely surprised. My dog has produced a lot of donations recently. I'll have to pack up a box for these lovely folks.

I have to say Ammon sounds awfully Muslim to me. We'd better hit em with a drone just to be sure.

@6 and @9. The armed trespassing occupiers come and go at will. "The law enforcement presence in the area appeared to be minimal, and no effort was made to keep the occupiers of buildings at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge from coming and going as they pleased." http://www.nytimes.com/2016/01/05/us/in-…

@13:

Fair enough, but that could change literally on a moment's notice. OTOH, maybe the feds figure a dozen yahoos living on a diet consisting of Cheeto's, Slim Jims, and Little Debbie cakes for a couple of weeks, will eventually solve their problem for them.

And while I'm thinking about it - they state their goal is to hold the Refuge buildings for months; so, from that can we assume these "patriots" are in fact a bunch of unemployed layabouts who live off'n the gubbamint teat they so roundly disparage?

All is clear. These people got kicked off welfare because they refused to look for jobs, so they're "occupying" this building to get the stupids to send them food and money. Soon they'll start a "fund for freedom fries" and ask the brain trust peeps for donations.

@14 except those things are what they eat all the time, so they'd have built up an immunity. This is a good thing though, frostbite will take some fingers and toes, with some luck they'll leave the refuge without their trigger fingers.
