The guy is an ecoterrorist, and should have the brunt of the law slammed into his face.
They must have moved the perp back to Eugene, as several of his groupies were in front of the jail this morning giving support.
Unless they proved intent to injure someone, or such gross negiligence that someone could have been injured, I would agree that 20+ years is a lot for burning some vehicles.
He would have gotten off better if he'd raped and murdered.
Well your honor, I don't think I can go as high as 22 years.
The best I can do is 7. Take it or I'm walkin!!
Oregon truely is a different place. And its very scary!
I'm sure an alternative sentence to spend time with Al-Queda would be welcome.
If he acted with criminal negligence, or indifference to human life, then the stiffer penalty is called for. You indicate that he did.
The guy is remorseless and should suffer the ENTIRE WEIGHT of the law.
I can see mercy being shown if the guy perhaps thought he was making a mistake but he CLEARLY demonstrates through his continued rhetoric that he will do this again. And maybe next time he WILL hurt someone.
he deserves MAXIMUM PENALTIES.
Yeah hell, go for it, kill a Kennedy if yoy want too, pal.
Whenever possible sobs such as this should be shot.
This guy is as much of a terrorists as the guys who flew the planes into the WTC.
But shits such as this are folk heroes in Oregon.
Here is his 'poor me' site where he spews his bile that is also often put on Portland Indymedia.
Yes, him and people like 'Tre arrow.'
It's okay for employees of company A to burn down a sales outlet for company B? Come on.
IIRC, a guy passed a bad check in TX. It was his third crime. He got life.
And btw, this terrorist also tried to burn an oil [distribution?] company. He's a serial arsonist, and society needs to be protected from him.
I didn't say that. I said that in the absence of criminal negligence that hurts someone, that 20+ years is a lot of time for $50,000 damage.
Has Oregon always been that way or they just getting the Californias' leftovers?
