You interpreted that as supporting the BATF. That is not the case. Either he intentionally did what he did in support of his issue or he was a dumbass for trying to circumvent the system.

It is amusing that you folks piss and moan about law enforcement when you should be complaining about the legislative branch of Government that either formulates these laws or fails to perform oversight functions.
The "system" is unconstitutional and defying it is an honorable action. Did you refer to Rosa Parks as a "dumbass" as well?
"He was aware of the law and he was most certainly aware that he was risking consequences for any real or perceived violation of that law. Thus I referred to him as a martyr."
I think he was aware of the law too, He's sixty years old, and the head of a militia, he kept his wepons properly stored, he had no criminal record, what better place can you think of to start this battle?
"The undeniable fact of life is that actions have consequences." ... and not all are bad.
Mr. Hollis "Wayne" Fincher may be doing us ALL a great service...and only time will tell. We could witnessing history in the making. One can only hope.
