You're not arguing with yourself, are you??!?
Just kidding. I need to start repeating it to myself also. I do. I really, really do.

Faqs,

I know feel like I'm spinning my wheels here, but I'm still in the first quote from Blixa's OP.

The one you obviously didn't read. Why do you expect us to watch your youtube videos when you won't read a post on the topic?

Here it is:

“That whole area is an artifact area,” Jarvis Kennedy, Burns Paiute tribal council member told ICTMN, “If you just walk across there you’ll see chips on the ground where someone made an arrowhead. It’s everywhere.”

Do you not see this?

Are you saying that the very people that LaVoy claimed to want to meet with to discuss the protection and preservation of their artifacts are lying?

Why are you so indifferent to receiving this information for consideration?

I see it, but do you?
He makes a "sweeping generalization" of an entire large area of land as "if" it's some "big artifact area" when it's not at all. It's open land.
He's not talking about the specific "spot" some people camped on, just the general entire area where they were.
You all act like they "disturbed" some sacred gravesite or excavation/historical site, they did not.
Your liberal media and he's likely liberal completely misrepresent the facts for an agenda.

Where's the "pictures" of the harm they did to some artifact? There is none.
He talks about "chips on the ground where someone made an arrowhead. It’s everywhere.”..... do you even know what he's talking about there?
I do.... I spent 6 years in Mesquite, NV wandering all over the town and surroundings in my youth, as well as some in Yerington, NV, and do you want to know something, that stuff is EVERYWHERE..... He even admits it in his statement. In many areas yards and yards of chipped rocks are all over the place in big swaths of land. Also while in Mesquite as Scouts we would go West of Las Vegas to what's called Red Rock Canyon.... that stuff was "everywhere" also.

In other words, this is all a cherry picking and putting together by liberal media some strained facts/information to make a narrative that is nothing more than a lie. There is not some "sin" camping in an area with chipped rocks that were likely used as part of early civilizations and digging a hole there and taking a crap. They didn't "disturb" some special "artifacts" didn't damage artifacts, etc. It's ALL a big fat misrepresentation by you liberals.....

Watch the video I posted. It shows Finicum trying to do right by Native Americans concerning their artifacts. THAT is the actual truth in video form.
These little cherry picked information, which is MISSING tons of facts with your liberal articles are nothing but lying, and an effort to further falsely characterize those at the Refuge. Shame shame on you all..... :(

I've camped next to chipped rock at least once, and walked among it many a times in several different places, and NOTHING is "sacred" or "special" about it because of how common it is. Are you going to call me a sinner now like you all do the people there?

LaVoy Finicum trying to Save Native American Artifacts


Finicum's approach is interesting:

"Here you go, guys - take yer crap outta here so that me and my band of pathetic whiners can have enough space to strech our legs out while we piss and moan about not having all of your land to call ours...".

It all may have reminded some people of white people in the past coming around and saying "I like the look of this place, I am sure it ought to be mine"

Relaying actual facts and truth contrary to liberal lying and misrepresenting of them is not being "clinically insane".

Again, those who camped at an area that has chipped rock everywhere isn't "disturbing some sacred/valuable artifacts/land".
I've actually lived and camped in areas like the same, and it's no more "special" in those areas either.
And you all make some big deal of a hole dug to take a crap in.....

Utterly amazing the efforts of those who's actually clinically insane trying to call someone else so.
