Yes!

I’m so glad.

I’ll be honest, and you guys will not get this level of honesty from others here on the forum ...

I thought it was important for this forum to steer clear from this controversy just in case they were found guilty.

I assumed they were most likely guilty. And their defenders never really responded to me with any substance regarding their legal innocence.

So I owe them and you an apology. But please understand, I had assumed that an innocent patriot would get a strident and thoughtful defense from his friends.

I watched the events back in January closely and sensed as the days passed by that this was not about ‘heavily armed militia’ threatening violence.

People informing for the federal government and or political forces opposed to the protest in the Oath Keepers and III Percent organizations, showed up at the protest.

They created the militant atmosphere for the media to hook onto and to help the feds make their case against the protestors.

Out West, where I don’t live, something has been building for decades accelerating even more so in the aftermath of the establishment of the EPA.

Increasing regulation and control of the activities of loggers, farmers, ranchers etc. etc.

This ended up with things like Cliven Bundy’s dispute over ‘grazing fees’ in Nevada, the case of the Hammonds in Oregon getting mandatory jail sentences of five years and being considered terrorists for lighting a backfire to protect their land etc. etc. etc.

Lets call the whole thing the “Jim Crow land use system” in the West.

Our Uniparty Corporatist system favors big business that lines the politicians pockets and leaves these small folks unable to be productive on their land.

...

There were other defendants who plead guilty.

I posted numerous times mocking the made-up feral grubermint charges - just not to you personally, Arthur.

This is not the time to back down from these tyrants. It is time to say what we mean and be willing to back it up with what ever means at our disposal.

Some justice delivered finally.

Now to deliver some justice to the murderers that ambushed and killed the dirt rancher and family man from Arizona.

Bring them in handcuffed and on their knees in front of his family. Make them bow to them before being executed in the snow.

An eye for an eye.

Oh, and thanks for the apology but you do not have to apologize to me.

Just pick up the torch and come on we got work to do.
