“Perhaps you’d be so good as to post which particular “armed felony” they were suspects in.”

The armed occupation of the Wildlife Refuge. Or did you forget where they’d been for the last three weeks?

"In the federal criminal complaint the U.S. attorney for the District of Oregon charges the eight defendants with a single count of conspiracy to impede an officer of the United States."

Don't see anything about "armed" in there.

If I stood in the way of a federal worker, and wouldn't move, I could be charged under the statute.

You're throwing in the "armed" to stoke up feeling against LaVoy Finicum.

The guys who were REALLY "armed" were those Fed Gear Queers, with all their $15,000 submachine guns, drones, heavy military vehicles, etc., etc., etc.

No, really.

Why don't you post up the "armed felony" that they've been charged with?

Maybe your computer search skills are better than mine. :)

18 U.S.C. § 372 Conspiracy to Impede Officers of the United States from discharging their official duties through the use of force, intimidation, or threats

The penalty is "fined under this title or imprisoned not more than six years, or both." "Not more than $5,000" was changed to "fined under this title", in 2002.
