Who exactly are they terrorizing ? The facility was closed for the winter. Oregon is buried in snow. The feds should just let them stay until the spring. Any damages to facility can be billed to them. The way this winter is going it is likely to be buried under snow anyway. They might actually do some good if they keep clearing the snow.
That’s a good idea, but we are dealing with the Feds. The Feds are clearly the instigators with their outrageous enforcement penalties with respect to land violations. The bureaucratic apparatus is a state unto itself and mostly impervious to popular opinion.
I don’t know why the Hammonds had to serve any jail time at all. If there was a violation, why not fines and restrictions? The federal court system and bureaucracy are the real villians. Rigged juries, star chamber proceedings with 95% conviction rates! No wonder why US has the highest per capita incarceration rate (politicians and banksters excluded)
Perhaps the Bundys will stay for a while, then leave and go into hiding in a contemporary version of Ann Frank’s haus. I’m sure these days, they’ll have plenty of people willing to support them which is another indictment against the Feds.
