Police arrested one of the Oregon militiamen Friday for driving a refuge truck –which was the property of the federal government – into town.
According to the Oregonian, 62-year-old Kenneth Medenbach was arrested in a Safeway parking lot for “unauthorized use of a motor vehicle.”
He was already on probation, according to the paper for his ties to an earlier anti-government standoff elsewhere in the state.
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service applauded his arrest, according to the Oregonian.
“The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service is grateful for the quick actions from law enforcement,” spokesman Megan Nagel said. “We will continue to work with law enforcement to recover vehicles bought and paid for by the American people to care for their national wildlife refuge.”
The paper also reported there was a second vehicle in the Safeway parking lot but the alleged driver had already gone into the grocery store and was not arrested.
Well clearly there was nothing they could have done. I mean… he was already in the grocery store.
Good. Now fucking book him, charge him, arraign him, prosecute him and incarcerate him for that and all the other crimes he’s been committing by participating in this white power temper tantrum.
For better or worse, I understand the law enforcement restraint, but this is getting absurd.
Hell no! If they’d spooked him he might have taken over the frozen foods section and barricaded himself behind a stack of Lean Cuisine entrees calling for reinforcements and resupply. Then they’d have a real mess on their hands.
First Fluffy Unicorn is arrested in Arizona and now a second terrorist is arrested. Here’s hoping they all go down and they all get charged as the terrorists they are.
