This armed take over of Malheur just went to another level...



OMG! This is just too rich! A woman is now reading their Redress of Grievances at a press conference being broadcast on MSNBC - and it's a bizarre sight.

Looks like someone at MSNBC pulled the plug on those #YeeHawd-ists as they completely bailed on the presser and went to yapping about something else, with nary a segue.

Grievances' (except maybe in the accounts of historians). One can read a 'list of grievances' or one can seek a 'redress of grievances'.

Pedantic itch scratched. Now back to regular programming.

...her saying they were seeking redress of grievances. But I could be wrong, of course.

were reading a 'Redress of Grievances,' thus perfectly illustrating the dumbing down of the American populace that has occurred since, oh, 1981.

Did not mean to suggest or imply that you would yourself utter such a malapropism.

Or did they just experience a dressing-down?

Maybe the grievances got embarrassed about their bare-assed lies, and needed to re-dress in a hurry?

In all seriousness KingCharlemagne, I appreciate your noting the Y'all Quaida Yeehadis' gaps in understanding basic grammar, as well as the larger Constitution itself.

If we want to end this now then we need to stop giving them all this air-time.

They are idiots and even normal militia groups like Oath Keepers are steering clear of these YallQaeda idiots.

Yet here we have the American equivalent of women voluntarily throwing in their lot with a bunch of brain-dead yahoos.

I suppose it's as simple as stupidity affecting both genders.
