I've argued in the past that the phrase "or other lawful purposes" includes the Creator-given right to self-defense and the defense of other innocents is most certainly under the cover of "lawful purpose."
Should read: I've argued in the past that the phrase "or other lawful purposes" includes the Creator-given right to self-defense and the defense of other innocents.
Certainly breaking into the federal buildings was unlawful, as was carrying firearms in them. I only meant to note that the charges levied sound bad until you understand what federal officer was impeded and where they carried firearms.
So they were firing weapons on the reserve. So what? At worst its worth a $1000 fine. Its rule breaking not murder.
i agree.
Thank you Nextrush
Take a look at the new Tuesday CBS show "Bull" it is all about jury scientific selection process that only the rich can afford.
To legitimize the government position nothing more.
This is going to end up like Weaver and Waco.
The defendants will probably be found not guilty of the major charges...but then sentenced to LONG terms on lesser charges.
Then, in the following civil trials, the government will pay millions for its own bad judgment and out of control decisions that led to this travesty all around.
One day...they are going to push too far.
