The following information came to me from several sources. These people had the temerity to stand before unconstitutional, illegal, immoral taking of property by government for the benefit of the ruling elite. We need people like them. We need to encourage and support those who stand against tyranny.
For reference, I also repost a few relevant parts of the Constitution under which the feds are supposed to be limited in their scope.

The Ryan family were a part of Celebrating Conservatism locally years ago. They are a super, stalwart, patriotic family.
Jake, 21, is in jail now because of going over to the Burns, OR “stand-off” to see what it was about and to help out if he could. He did nothing wrong, but he, as well as numerous others, were rounded up and thrown in jail without bail.
Attached are 3 flyers. One is of an event June 4/5th–they are wanting to get as many patriots there as possible to show the locals that this is no “tiny” thing that has happened. The others show a list of some of the good patriots who have been rounded up and thrown in jail.
Your calls to the local jails, judges, etc. has made some effect in getting a few released. Please call, write, do what you can to support Jake and others who have been treated as criminals.
