Jen Catron and Paul Outlaw Special Delivery (citizens for Constitutional Freedom) 2018
mixed media 3.5 x 9 x 7 inches (9 x 23 x 18 cm)
On January 6, 2016, Ammon Bundy along with other men and women with multiple
firearms occupied the Malheur Wildlife Refuge Center, claiming federal land should be
turned over to the states. The men refused to stand down and release their weapons to the
authorities until they finally began to surrender themselves on Feb 11, after an arrest led to
the death of one its members as he was reaching for his handgun. When the members
made pleas on the internet for "supplies and care packages" people began anonymously
sending the members boxes of sex toys and dildo's, which Ammon declared in a follow up
video to be hate mail.
