Ammon Bundy Rebukes President Donald Trump For Suggesting Honduran Refugees Are Criminals

[TexasTowelie]

Ammon Bundy, one of the leaders of the 2016 armed occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, criticized President Donald Trump this week for lying about the caravan of refugees seeking asylum in the U.S.

Bundy says the president has painted the refugees with too broad a brush.

"[Trump] called them all criminals and said they're not coming in here," he says in a video posted Nov. 27 to Facebook in which Bundy talks extensively about why the U.S. should process the migrants' asylum applications. "What about the fathers, the mothers and the children that have come here and are willing to go through the process to apply for asylum?"

He says conservative media outlets and politicians have incorrectly characterized those seeking a better life in the U.S. as criminals and terrorists. In the same video, Bundy also criticized what he called the "liberal" media, for having a "bleeding heart" mentality about the refugees.

1. How the Feds managed to bungle his case is astounding. He should be behind bars.

I do agree with his statement regarding refugees. Other than that, hell with him.

2. He's trying to cater favor with the mainstream.

The Bundy family are criminals. I don’t believe one word that comes from their mouths.

3. What can one say about this,

For someone who knows Ammon and has put up with his spew years ago,suddenly he changes his spew. Hunch is, he has a Religious bent to this.

12. My guess is,he and his Wife are

tapped out. Just before he hit the slammer in Portland,they bought a small place in Idaho with a Orchard. Legal bills got to be eating him up.

11. Ammon Bundy seems to have a mind of his own

He seems to be a far better human being than Donald Trump. It's hard to believe he's a Republican. His video is very interesting, and worth watching. He says:

Their main argument", against immigrants, "is based upon fear".

"We have been asked by God to welcome and assist strangers."

"This country is in a labor crisis...."

"Bring them in and sponsor them in some way... me and my wife and my children would wecomethem into our home...."

I'm surprised, disappointed..... by the amount of Christians who won't adhere to what Christ said", "they draw near to me with their lips but their hearts are far from me."

"I believe it is our duty to help and bless our neighbor...."
