Quotes from defendant Eric Parker about what happened to him in court last week along with my notes.

No defense witnesses were allowed by the judge contrary to the Sixth Amendment right for the accused to have witnesses.

On Thursday, he tried to testify on his own behalf but the Acting US Attorney in Las Vegas who was praised for his leadership in the case by AG Jeff Sessions last month, Steven Myrhe, objected.

Then Judge Navarro removed him from the stand in front of a stunned jury with Parker visibly stunned as well.

Parker's full interview on this video with the events leading up to his removal from the stand in the first 12 minutes.

I support President Donald J. Trump enthusiastically like Ted Nugent and Sheriff Richard Mack do.

They both made a video recently laying out many injustices going on in this country done by the federal government including the ranchers in Oregon, Amish people in Ohio and the list goes on.

The Justice Department is a rathole and something needs to be done.

They are coming for Donald Trump and events in the last 24 hours only confirm that. Enemies of freedom who are persecuting people who support President Trump and going after him personally infest the so-called Department of Justice.

Court is back in session tomorrow in Vegas with supporters wanting people to come out and protest.

Another of the four men on trial, Scott Drexler, may attempt to testify as well on his own behalf.

Its sad that when “Nextrush” posted this last night, there was a scrubbing of the post within minutes. Eliminated from FR.

The attempts to black this case out and suppress knowledge of it are legion.

So get to the video link and watch other videos related to it at the “JGrady” account on “You Tube”.

This post could disappear at any time.

If I was on the jury and a Judge pulled those type of shenanigans, I would find not guilty and would make the statement during the reading of the verdict that the jury can not convict anyone of any crime unless they are allowed a fair trail.

What is the story behind this? All we have here is an individual’s reaction to what he considers a shocking injustice. Will it be necessary to watch the YouTube to know what he’s talking about?

I’ve done some poking around online and it appears supporters of the defendants are being monitored by law enforcement with a building being used by them in Vegas visited by Las Vegas police Friday.

The cops said there were squatters at the building and cleared it, forcing cancellation of a meeting planned there.

Someone apparently made a crank call to the cops, but the owner of the property just happened to be unavailable to explain it was OK for folks to be there.

So supporters broken up by police.

In political persecution cases, there is usually an initial conviction then reversal on appeal.

This case is ripe for appeal.

I assume the defendant attorney will have a field day with closing remarks to the Jury:

1. The prosecutor defined the accused intent, but the court refuses to allow the accused to define their intent.

2. The prosecutor was allowed any witness, but the defense was not allowed chosen witnesses.

Jury members, if you were on trial, would you consider that constitutional or fair? Do not allow the US GVT to deny constitutional rights to defendants.

What I tried to do is to edit his comments so you can hear his side of the story.

Even the mainstream media reporting clearly points to something funny going on, so funny that the jury was “stunned” in their estimation as observers in the courtroom Thursday.

Google “Eric Parker” or Bing “Eric Parker” as News and you can see Las Vegas and Phoenix news media accounts from “Las Vegas Review Journal” or “Arizona Central”.

Another point, many in this forum consider the mainstream news media to be biased and or corrupt.

I fully agree.

So you and I need to do our own digging for the real story and if that means Twitter for Trump Tweets, Facebook for Sarah Palin, or You Tube for the Bundy side of the story, so be it.

The end of all this is as predictable as sunrise. Follow the money. The FedGov is at least $20 Trillion in debt. What resources does the FedGov lay claim to that can leverage this kind of debt? Only the public lands it lays claim to. For decades these lands were almost worthless. The FedGov did to have to worry about the strength of it’s claim to worthless land. Now that land is leverage for $20 Trillion the FedGov has to firmly secure it’s claim to that land and nothing will be allowed to threaten that claim. Not the Bundys or anyone.

Ah, but did the owner eventually say Yes, or was this a convenient lie?

I’m just back and it looks like things have been rectified since what happened last night.

This situation will not be resolved by politics alone.

Dr. Martin Luther King had to grease the skids for civil rights laws with blood, sweat, tears and his very own life in spite of his flawed human nature.

The politicians would have never passed laws unless people were beaten and abused and prosecuted and persecuted in the South.

Just like folks for civil rights were having screws turned on them, people related to Nevada (Bunkerville-Bundy) and Oregon (Oregon Standoff) protests are having screws turned on them.

In Oregon, Ammon Bundy’s defense lawyer Marcus Mumford is fighting the disbarment attempt that followed the feds dropping charges against him.

The federal marshals tackled and tased him (October 27, 2016) as he argued in front of the judge for his client (Ammon Bundy) who was found not guilty to be released.

The blogger (Gary Hunt) still has a fight going on over his posts outing FBI informants.

And the FBI agent who lied in the LaVoy Finicum murder won’t face trial till next year. Heck, the feds say they are now interested in Ryan Bundy’s wound sustained beck then because it may prove the FBI agent hit him and by implication lied about shooting.

Ryan Bundy refused to have the wound treated saying it was ‘evidence’ of what had been done to him.

You haven't even been a member of this forum for a full year, and there you are, accusing the management of some kind of conspiratorial censorship.

I don't know who you are, but I know the owner, Jim Robinson. You're in his house, noob. Perhaps you should acquaint yourself with the rules of his house before assuming that he's censoring anyone.

It seems that you’re the noob here. You should acquiant yourself with the history of censorship and harassment of people posting about bunkerville ang malheur, humblegunner specifically.

Poorly sourced rumors posing as real news have always been yanked by the mods on this site. Any long-term member of this forum knows that.

Obviously, you've never bothered to learn the difference, so you're sitting there with the false belief that management is suppressing information about the Bunkerville incident/trial.

If that's the case, why have I seen innumerable threads posted about this topic on Free Republic? If JimRob is censoring news about Bunkerville, why do I get pages of results when entering the keyword, 'bunkerville' in an FR search?

Take a look: http://www.freerepublic.com/tag/bunkerville/index?tab=articles

So, you were saying..?
