I had to chuckle at Shelley Silbert, of the Great Old Broads for Wilderness Group: "It's not appropriate to ...go into the canyons with weapons." I suspect that's one "old broad" who's never encountered a rattlesnake or mountain cat or desperado out in the "wilderness" she's self-appointed herself an expert on.

Jury nullification - probability at least 99%, and BLM/Reid/Obama have to know it. They are somewhere on the spectrum between stupid and evil, but even they cannot be that stupid.
How about another guntoting ride? huh? Like that feds?
Charges should against the BLM for destruction of both govt and private property. Not to mention the bodily harm they caused.
“There’s an ATV in the park! Oh, noooooooo...”
The Obama government insists on embarrassing itself.
I approve.
Do they Federal Prosecutors think they can get 12 of Cockroach Reid’s SEIU cronies on a jury? That is the only way they will get a conviction.
They are just begging for a fight. Some people think Obama wants to cancel the 2016 election by declaring martial law. I would be surprised if he looks for a way. To cancel the mid-term election.
!
Before they wire up this investigation, haul the National Park Service into federal court for destroying parts of Effigy Mounds in NE Iowa.
When the feral feds aren’t ignoring and breaking laws themselves they are abusing and misapplying them to persecute citizens.
Instead of representing and serving the citizenry, our federal government has become a killer parasite, sucking the lifeblood from the nation.
“Protection” racket.
So let’s say for the sake of argument that this had ben a protest for gay rights and along with four wheeler tracks they left tons of litter and defecated on a couple of BLM vehicles. Would we be talking about filing charges. Oh wait that happened in New York by the anti wall street thugs!!!
I seem to recall that about a month ago the cattle-shooting BLM mercs, in their haste to beat a hasty retreat (once they discovered they were outgunned), ran over a `nest’ of their own protected feral turtles with a feral truck.
Yertle the turtle, RIP.
Won’t anyone think of the turtles?
Don’t laws apply to them?
Finally, did you notice from the article that the orders to execute came from the WH?
Also, didja notice in the thread immed. above (`Bundy assembling legal team’) in the article referenced by Ben Ficklin, post #3—the orders to execute on Bundy’s ranch came from the WH itself?
Yet another scandal in which another low-level underling close to retirement will take early retirement, after receiving assurance that his/her pension is safe, along with a fat under-the-table payment.
Because Uncle Sugar is loaded, donchaknow?
undercover BLM agents
To me that is the scary part.
undercover agents or provacateurs?
Do you actually expect unbiased media from a Russian ragtag ?
