Talk:Oath Keepers

Addition of material, discussion of Tags

I have aded a couple of cites from both CNN and the Nevada SOS to the article, and done some minor rearrangement to get the ball rolling. I think is is critical to review to wording to remove and POV material and hold onto relevant information that conforms to NPOV. Your thoughts?

I am so glad... this is such a horrible group and I am so happy to see wikipedia has uncovered them. They are a very racist group and are making a private army... isn't it interesting that only the army are in the Oath keepers? They all have guns. I hope the poverty center arrests them or something before they do real serious harm to our country. It is horrible that people from the army are getting together and talking about a revolution and scary. How is that legal? I have two kids to worry about and I'm worried that their future is in jeopardy because of anti-Obama anti-government gun wielding groups like this. It has to be tracked so we know. Thanks for listening. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rachelnee1984 (talk • contribs) 22:43, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

No, you have been misinformed by this wikipedia article. It is not only the army who are members. Police, firefighters also make up a large portion of the Oath Keepers membership, and citizens such as yourself are members. Women are members. Mothers are members. I would actually suggest your follow some of the links at the bottom of the article and read up about the organization yourself. We are only advocating that our members stand down when given unlawful orders. Please see the Oath Keepers website for more information. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Oatz Keeprz (talk • contribs) 22:12, 23 November 2009 (UTC)

To say "public safety" or "law enforcement" personnel?

Which is more neutral language? In The Los Angeles Times they say "public safety personnel" but in the Bozeman Daily Chronicle they say "law enforcement personnel." Varks Spira (talk) 19:09, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Both sound pretty neutral, in my opinion. --darolew (talk) 05:27, 15 November 2009 (UTC)

I agree, although I'd point out that there's a subtle difference between the two. "Public safety personnel" would include non-police personnel, such as firefighters and EMT's, where "law enforcement personnel" wouldn't. --DarthBinky (talk) 20:39, 18 November 2009 (UTC)

False information on Oath Keepers

Oath Keepers is no longer teamed up with the liberty summit and the post has been taken off the website. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.173.152.197 (talk) 19:08, 2 December 2009 (UTC)

Oath Keepers wants journalism that deals in FACTS NOT OPINIONS!! The UK's Independent spewed opinions that had no basis in fact and quoted nobody from the Oath Keeper organization. Factual information and quotes are welcomed to truly represent what Oath Keepers is about!!

Here at Wikipedia, we have criteria for the sources we use - see our guideline on reliable sources. So if you have any specific links or sources to share, please post them, rather than simply saying that something is wrong. The

As for the association of the Oath Keepers with the Liberty Summit, according to this blog posting, the Oath Keepers are still very much involved. Again, if things have changed, please cite a source. -- John Broughton (♫♫) 13:49, 22 February 2010 (UTC)
