Original Post: Rogue rancher and self-styled strict constructionist Ammon Bundy has been arrested along with other militia members, according to local news reports out of Oregon. KATU News reports shots fired as the militia group was on its way to a meeting. “Highway 395 at the intersection of US 20 north of Burns — not far from the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge — closed in both directions,” KOIN reports.

Bundy and a group of armed protesters took over the headquarters of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Oregon more than three weeks ago as a misguided form of protest in support of two other ranchers convicted of arson for conducting a controlled burn on federal property.
