FULL TRANSCRIPT
"Ammon Bundy February 6, 2016.
"This is a call to action for any elected representative in Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Wyoming, Utah, Arizona, the State of Washington, and Ohio. You have constituents in federal custody. Please visit and contact them to voice your support for free speech, the right to assemble, and civil disobedience. It is your duty to hold federal agencies at bay, protecting the people in your state.
"And to those who disagree with my speech, or our civil disobedience, and may dislike our ideas regarding that the land belongs to the people: Please remember that you do not want free speech to be retaliated against by government officials. If you do not advocate for government to tolerate ideas that it hates, then the First Amendment and free speech mean nothing.
"Arm yourself with ideas. Arm yourselves with education. Argue and disagree. Be free. Thank you." - Ammon Bundy, 2/6/16 from the Multnomah County Jail
