And I hear tell that the branch Davidians were child molesters too.
You are going to take the word of a supposed hunting guide that couldn't tell the difference between elk or deer? Good grief no wonder you people are so easily wooed by .Gov.

Doesn't always work, but I'm more inclined to accept the outcome of a jury trial as being factually correct.
As for the sentence, I don't agree with mandatory minimums, although setting a fire that deliberately endangers people used to be a hanging offense, and 5 years might just be pretty low.
But it is the GOP-types that want the mandatories, saying "if you can't do the time, don't do the crime"

It is really unfair to throw that in their face. It is a well known fact that the GOP did not intend mandatories to be used against middle aged privileged white males

I worked out well actually. No one took me up on the bet. I guess everyone wasn't quite so sure they wouldn't use them after all.

LOL, because no one wanted to play your juvenile game.
You were so eager to believe tanks were being brought in that you wanted to bet on it, but viewed the possiblity of the Hammonds taking 2 or 3 weeks to cross the refuge with their cattle was a fairy tale.

I've testified in about 100 jury trials and my clients don't always win but I have a great respect for juries and the legal system. They usually get it right. Sometimes they get it so right it amazes me.

To cover up illegal poaching, Hammonds started one range fire. That fire endangered people who were hunting legally and destroyed their camp.
I wonder why they weren't charged with poaching?

Because there was a fire, didn't you hear?
Which destroyed the evidence, as intended......

I see potential for at least 2500 posts once the trials begin. Santilli Lace will cop a plea, but the Bundys are far too smart for that. They will fight to the end cuz a plead deal will require them to take responsibility for their poor choices in life.

From The Oregonian Newspaper today:
Craigslist trolls Ammon Bundy and his favorite jacket http://www.oregonlive.com/geek/2016/01/this_ammon_bundy_craigslist_ad.html
A pretty funny article:
Now, someone is pretend-selling the occupier's favorite blue plaid wool jacket on Craigslist for $50,000.
Condition: Fair.
Manufacturer: 2nd Amendment Clothing.
Here's the ad. It pretty much sums up the ubiquitous garment's 25-day adventure at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge near Burns:
Slightly Used Blue Plaid Wool Jacket. Worn 24 hrs. / day for the last 26 days to weather it out in Burns Or. Due to a sudden lifestyle change, I've decided to only wear orange jumpsuits.
A couple of snags from barbed wire. Some odors of sweat, beef jerky, gun oil, personal lubricant and sedition. Includes one pocket copy of the U.S. Constitution.
Careful wearing this in any western-themed gay bars, because this unit is HOT!!!
Will consider trade for 200 cartons of cigarettes or some snacks.
