Safe conduct is the situation in time of international conflict or war where one state, a party to such conflict, issues to a person, usually an enemy state's subject, a pass or document to allow the enemy alien to traverse its territory without harassment, bodily harm, or fear of death.

Roadblocks, multiple gunshots, and then bleeding to death. I'd say the FBI violated the promise of safe conduct, with a very high level of harassment and bodily harm, followed by a painful death. My level of trust for anyone who willingly does Obama's work is exactly what followers of any petty tyrant deserve. The outcome in Oregon shows that an absence of trust is fully justified.

Again, we do not know precisely what the FBI said.

Also, the kind of "safe conduct" you describe does not normally apply to citizens of the same nation in peacetime.

And Finicum is on tape reaching for his pocket rather than the sky.

I can drive from town to town if I want, but I know I'm not immune to roadblocks, traffic stops, sobriety checks, etc.

If the Malheur protestors thought they were being offered immunity from all laws they were dreaming.

I haven’t heard that LeRoy was promised safe conduct.
