A couple of problems with your formula: Bratcher said......

County officials said...

They don't dispose of these cases, juries do; and they don't dispose of the law; the higher courts do.

Your and their entire case against the two men arrested by the county sheriff rests on two points:

1. Illegally entering the country and standing on federal land isn't trespassing (really?).

2. Trespassing on private property is grounds for citizen's arrest, but trespassing on national property isn't (really?).

Both propositions require us to believe that invasion isn't trespassing, and that citizens don't own the national property. The second proposition, if true, suggests that anyone who wants to can walk into Area 51 or Vandenburg Air Force Base and not be arrested: they're national property, after all -- king's X!

Settling stuff like this is what we build courtrooms for. As a tweak, I would also point out that (ahem) you seem to think that arrest and indictment are tantamount to proven guilt. That's what The Rapist and his Beast Woman said about poor Billy Dale and the other Travel Office employees.

All I do is point out Reality. Anyone is free to disagree with Reality if they want to.
