So how about the cops do their fuckin jobs and go round up these people.
-
They did. The threat was established to be incorrect and the lone person making the threat was detained, and workers are back in the area.
-
Maybe some of them ARE cops.
-
Maybe?

Because that's how you get reactionary keyboad warriors going "OMG ACAB WHY ARE THEY ARRESTING THEM THIS IS LITERALLY 1984" on every website and media outlet. Also, probably firefights, officer-involved shootings, and further inflammation of a situation that was fucked from the start.
People don't tend to use their best judgement when blues are involved, especially in America.

They can’t be threatening FEMA and helping them!!!

How are those fuckers not in jail?

Another article said this is wrong. There was one 44 yr old from Bothic that's been arrested but no militia... Yet.
-
Just to clarify, as far as I can tell, the trucks were reported by the National Guard to the US Forest Service who notified FEMA. The other was a call to a sheriff's office about a single individual. It's quite possible these are two actual but different things.

This is why we can't have nice things.

It really is. One of the reasons, anyway.

They aren't organized by the Sate. They have no official authority. So they aren't really a Militia.
They are a literal gang.
Stop calling them Militia.
Militia isn't defined by being part of the State.
It's a term used to describe a military force comprised of civilians. There's even a modern connotation of being against the state.
Gangs aren't purely for military purposes, so if the purpose of this gang is an armed attack against a govenrment agency, then it's not unreasonable to call them a militia.
So a militia, comprised of terrorists.... seems fair.
Call them terrorists. That's what they are.
