Dan Varoujean, the same biologist who suggested that people who care about the environment should “hang themselves” and called for the slaughter, by gunshot, of 300 seals now wants a “resource militia” to take back the “land from the federal government.” A militia is defined as “a military force that engages in rebel or terrorist activities, typically in opposition to a regular army.” At the January 17, 2012 BOC meeting, Varoujean spoke in opposition to the Bandon Marsh proposal to purchase private property to expand the area wetlands. [Begins at 2:30:00]
Interestingly, Varoujean rails against the Nature Conservancy which submitted a proposal to expand the marsh in June 2010 that included acquiring property from Fred Messerle and Sons, Inc. Messerle is a Coos County interim commissioner.
Here we are, living in Coos County where scared old white guys are calling for armed insurrection at public meetings… where is Homeland Security when you need them?
Not all the homeless are mentally unstable.
And not all the mentally unstable are homeless.
Perfect example, and it’s obvious he has consorts to exchange ideas with.
In ANY other venue, these people would not be tolerated. Here they film themselves in all their ignorant glory.
So calling for a militia against the Federal Government, and the local sheriff is sitting and listening and nothing else was said? Try that crap in a Federal courthouse. I’m wondering if anyone has alerted Homeland Security since their office is here in the strip mall in North Bend.
Probably another case of “it’s only a crime when THEY do it”.
Absolutely right Colandrio, it’s real hard to participate, or even comment on what you can’t hear.
I notice on the video that once again there is no public address system in use in this meeting. Having attended many public meetings there, I find this unconscionable. For me it is a waste of time to go all that way (I live in North Bend) and sit for two or three hours and not be able to hear what is being said. One can buy a public address system on line for less than $100, so I know this must be a strategy to discourage public attendance and public participation by the BOC.
I am relieved that he is correctly viewed as a looney tune by others than myself but anyone who talks about violence as much as he does shouldn’t have access to firearms. The guys is a danger to himself and others in my opinion.
Kindly accept the fact that Mr. Varoujean is a ferking whack nut, has always been a whack nut, and will continue to be a whack nut. We who may be slightly more right of center than the average MGX reader don’t want him either.
