On Tuesday night, spokesman, Robert “LaVoy” Finicum was killed in a shootout with the FBI, and seven of the leaders of the occupation of an Oregon wildlife refuge were arrested (an eighth, Jon “The Dildo Guy” Ritzheimer, turned himself in later that evening).
Today, the remaining militia members are surrounded by federal and state law enforcement. They say they’re not going anywhere.
