The Kooks are Back

[D Chapman]

But you said 6 mil to have some cows taken off some land. I don't think it would cost much to go get the cows. Wasn't it a judgement to take the cows off the land? It's obvious your not going to be swayed here. Your mind is made up. You say you don't agree with what they did but you sound like you do agree with what they did.

You guys are telling me what I agree with and what I don't. This topic has went on a whirlwind and much of it has very little to do with my interest. I don't care about the Bundy's or the Hammond's or the cows. I care about the principle of the matter - should federal rights trump state rights on lands that are within the boarders of the state. There is a good argument on both sides of this.

I stand with Rand

This is a good article on both sides.

It will cost.

Can't decide if this guy is an attorney or a private military contractor.

I like his hat. He's ready for the revolution.

 

[ERover82]

His points could be better made if he'd stop sniffing glue. Wonder if Mr. Bundy ever got to wear his cowboy hat in court..

 

[emmodg]

He lost me with the velcro-laden "contractor" hat.

Who's the kook now?

Can you say jury nullification?

Remember kids. We don't have to support unjust laws!

White version of the OJ trial.

Not guilty of possessing firearms in a federal facility? WTF? They put out videos of just that.

 

[D Chapman]

I have a feeling the "federal facility" of all this will be the next court hearing.

Yeah..none of these people are kooks. They all look perfectly sane and reasonable.

I think I found Banta's high school yearbook photo:

Apparently they're more sane and reasonable than what the Fed's would want you to believe.

The acquittal of seven people who occupied a federal wildlife sanctuary in Oregon was a rejection of the prosecution's conspiracy case, not an endorsement of the defendants' actions in the armed protest, a juror said Friday

The juror, identified only as Juror No. 4, wrote in an email to The Oregonian/OregonLive that the verdicts were a "statement" about the prosecution's failure to prove a conspiracy charge "and not any form of affirmation of the defense's various beliefs, actions or aspirations."

.

 

[D Chapman]

In other words, the prosecution did not have a case.

 

[ERover82]

You missed the point. As for your comment, they had multiple cases, but gambled on the wrong one.
