Aaarghhhhh!!!

These guys are now going to turn around and do something as crazy or more than what they have already done.

This is crazy disappointing news.

ETA: my view of this is doubly aggravated after watching Bundy associates “inhabit” a Federal office in remote SE Oregon while armed and most of them pretty much got to walk away after the trial.

If only they would have caught them in possession of a joint, THEN they would be sorry!

How do you fuck up a case where the defendants pulled guns on Federal law enforcement officers? How do you fail to adequately prosecute a bunch of crazy sovereign citizens running around breaking every law in the book? Did Jeff Sessions personally oversee this? What the fucking fuck?

I know not all comparisons are valid, but I just have to make it: on one hand we have these guys, pointing assault weapons at authorities and thumbing their noses at the legitimacy of our country’s laws, and they are lionized by a particular network and I’m sure a particular president isn’t far behind. On the other we have a black man choked to death for selling loose cigs on the street. What the hell is the problem here. It’s a goddamn disgrace.

There’s no excuse for such a botched prosecution. Those lunatics were guilty. Period. They broke any number of laws.

Let’s not forget that the Las Vegas cop killers took some inspiration from the Bundy standoff.

So, this goober walks–For now. No doubt he will commit some other egregious crime in the name of Freedumb. Nail him then.

Yup.

I live in Oregon, and was monumentally disappointed with the outcome of the first case.

So did Bob McDonnell, yet SCOTUS deemed him free to go.

Yes. I would go further. What the actual fucking fuck?

Why, with a simple case like this would you screw something up? How could you screw it up? They admitted the criminal facts involved in the case.
