Bundy strikes defiant
tone from behind bars

Jennifer Williams, who owns a small ranch outside of
Burns, said she arrived at the demonstrations to send
a message that the standoff supporters don’t repre-
sent the voice of the community outside the Harney
County Courthouse on Monday. Hundreds gathered
to protest and support the armed occupation of a
national wildlife preserve.
to residents and federal
employees. Prosecutors say
the group, once numbering
a couple dozen, was ready to
use violence to hold on to the
refuge.
The standoff also has
created divisions among
residents that will take time
to heal. Many locals want
the occupation to end and
are eager to get on with their
lives. But others sympathize
with Bundy’s complaints,
which are part of a long-run-
ning dispute over federal
management of public lands
in the West.
Some have rallied in
support and opposition to
the standoff, the latter often
citing the death of an Arizona
rancher by police. Robert
“LaVoy” Finicum was killed
Jan. 26 during a confron-
tation with FBI agents and
Oregon State Police on a
remote road.
Federal authorities have
released aerial video and said
Finicum was going for a gun
in his jacket pocket. Bundy’s
relatives say the shooting

The Jan. 30 story “As state’s rates go up, Eastern Oregon’s decline” gave the wrong

2014-2015 was 69 percent, meaning the district’s rate increased 1 percent over the prior year.

Ammon Bundy said
the FBI and Oregon State
Police surrounding Malheur
National Wildlife Refuge
are leading an “armed
occupation,” words typically
reserved for the ranchers
and others that launched the
standoff on Jan. 2. He said
the refuge “belongs to the
people,” according to a state-
ment read by his attorney.
“I am requesting that
the remaining protesters go
home now so their lives are
not taken,” Bundy’s state-
ment said.
He is among 11 people
arrested in connection with
the standoff, whose adher-
ents have called federal land
restrictions burdensome and
demanded the government
turn over public lands to
local control. Many were

All face a felony

was intended as a “peaceful

ence.” A federal judge has
allowed a couple of others to
go free pending trial.
