[history]
Calling their plot to blow up a massive propane storage plant in Elk Grove a "hare-brained scheme," a federal judge Monday morning sentenced two former militia followers to lengthy prison terms.
Kevin Ray Patterson, the supposed mastermind of the plan to blow up the Suburban Propane storage plant at Grant Line Road and Highway 99, was sentenced to 24 years and five months for his role.

They will learn football in prison I think. Especially the position of wide receiver.

"But Kiles' possession of 49 weapons and an extensive anti-government library of books on how to kill people led Garcia to reject defense pleas for a sentence of only five or six years"
Were the weapons illegal? So what if he had books (oh no, not books).
To: Texas_Jarhead
Mr. Kiles was not prosecuted for owning weapons or books. Try to find a different poster child for the 2nd Amendment. Mr. Kiles is not him.

BTTT for justice
To: Cultural Jihad
that wasn't the point at all. I don't think one should receive a greater sentence for owning anti-government books.
To: Texas_Jarhead
I don't think one should receive a greater sentence for owning anti-government books. Your opinion has been noted. If you would care to document your objection on the way the good people of California conduct their own self-governance affairs, you are welcome to call their toll free out-of-state phone line for out-of-state busy-body meddlers who can't seem to mind their own business at: 1-800-WHO-CARES.

Blowing up propane? Those boys ain't right.
To: Cultural Jihad
See, the problem is, it's fine for dumb white trash to have 49 weapons and anti-government books, but if they were A-rabs with 49 weapons and anti-government books, they should have gotten the death penalty.

Wonder if white people will protest about their pictures being in the paper? :-)
I wouldn't blame them if they did. These two look like an embarassment to fanatics everywhere. Not exactly the master race, huh?

They hoped the loss of Elk Grove, California, would throw America into chaos and lead people to rise up and overthrow the U.S. government?
Elk Grove, California?
I didn't know we even HAD an Elk Grove, California.

They hoped the loss of Elk Grove, California, would throw America into chaos and lead people to rise up and overthrow the U.S. government? Ideologues are not well known for their allegiance to Reality. The Claire Wolfeians who number in the quadzillions must be sitting around with itchy trigger fingers waiting for their chance to hijack the milk trucks and ambush the meter maids to secure their freedom and happiness. From the looks of Mr. Kiles, he hasn't spent any of his life pursuing either with any vigor.

"January 19, 2001, California. Donald Rudolph, former leader of the San Joaquin Militia, pleads guilty to withholding knowledge of a conspiracy to use a weapon of mass destruction in connection with a plot to destroy a propane storage facility near Elk Grove in 1999, as well as conspiring to kill U.S. District Judge Edward Lodge. Two other militia members, Kevin Ray Patterson and Charles Dennis Kiles, have also been charged and await trial. Rudolph is already serving a 30 month sentence for illegal possession of a machine gun."
