#4 The way I hear it is that the were convicted, sentenced, served their time, and only after all that someone decided the sentence wasn't enough so changed it.

Federal prosecutors said the act of a controlled burn was a terrorist act which demanded the Hammond serve out the whole 5 years.

I'd be angry as hell over this as well.

Which is, in my tiny mind, another reminder why Patriot Act era laws must be repealed.

#6 The fact the feds keep changing the rules to benefit them and then go after these ranchers again for their land is pure tyranny. I don't know what the occupation of the refuge is the right idea, but someone needs to stand up to the feds in the west and force them to back down, or double down and shoot it out.

It has become that bad with the lawless feds.

#7 DOJ, FBI and the entire federal criminal justice apparatus are corrupt. This conviction is about as convincing as a Soviet puppet trial. Sorry - but the notion that they 'had their day in court' is about 30 years expired.
