<\/a><\/center><\/p>\nThe Associated Press<\/a> reports that the Great Malheur National Poser Convention is still in it’s death throes at the wildlife refuge. The Feds have shut off access to the facility and the occupiers are still demanding that the feds refrain from arresting them for being criminals.<\/p>\n At the refuge, the occupiers yelled at officers to back off and prayed with supporters over the open phone line streamed by an acquaintance of holdout David Fry.<\/p>\n Fry, 27, of Blanchester, Ohio, sounded increasingly unraveled as he continually yelled, at times hysterically, at what he said was an FBI negotiator.<\/p>\n “You’re going to hell. Kill me. Get it over with,” he said. “We’re innocent people camping at a public facility, and you’re going to murder us.<\/p>\n “The only way we’re leaving here is dead or without charges,” Fry said, adding that armored vehicles surrounded their camp.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n Oregon Live<\/a> names the holdouts;<\/p>\n Those left at the refuge 30 miles southeast of Burns are David Fry, 27, of the Cincinnati area, Jeff Banta, 46, of Elko, Nevada, Sean Anderson, 47, and his wife Sandy, 48, of Riggins, Idaho.<\/p>\n The live stream provided a remarkable front row seat for the nation to listen in as the holdouts faced the FBI move. At points, a phone left on inside the occupiers’ camp picked up demands from agents over loudspeakers.<\/p>\n “Come out with your hands up,” a law enforcement official was heard saying.<\/p>\n […]<\/p>\n The holdouts all face arrest on a federal charge of conspiracy for their roles in the armed occupation. They are among 16 indicted on that charge. They were told they had to surrender.<\/p>\n “There’s nowhere for you to go,” one officer was heard saying.<\/p>\n Fry shouted back, “We’re leaving tomorrow.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n I love how folks who are backed up against the wall and have no place to go will still act like they have some kind of upper hand in negotiating position. I guess they figured that they have enough gummy dicks to last them until today. Oregon Public Broadcasting<\/a> says that the occupiers plan on surrendering tonight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
