The LEOs on site tried to cover up the fact that they shot up vehicle with random gunshots with no provocation and are being prosecuted for their coverup.
The fact that the vehicles were 'herded' by the Feds
The fact that their vehicles were shot up with 'no provocation', not to mention shot at by Fed.gov/and/or sherrifs deputies
is a clear indication of intended violence .
The fact that Fed / State agents lied and covered up their own negligence , requiring a situational audit by the Investigator General,
clearly indicate that those same officers need to be held accountable to the same charges and penalties that the Feds wish to impose on the 'protesters'.
If lying to a Federal officer is a Felony , so also should the same charges and penalties apply to the Fed/ State officers involved in the 'cover-up'.
Since the FED / State officers initiated an unprovoked attack on the vehicles and the occupants,
LaVoy could justifiably be seen as defending himself and the occupants from "deadly physical force" , even if he was armed.
The FED / State officers provoked the incident , the crime , and the "cover-up" , and need to be similarly held accountable to the charges imposed on the 'protesters' .
