The stand-off in Oregon between the Federal government and Ammon Bundy and his fellow ranchers does not seem to be winding down. Bundy and his loosely connected organization came to Burns, Oregon about two weeks ago in support of Steven and Dwight Hammond, local ranchers who were accused of arson some years ago. The charges were filed because the Hammonds cleared some of their ranch by burning the underbrush and overgrowth, but the fire spread to surrounding Federal land. The Hammonds were able to extinguish the blaze without help, and in fact, both the Hammonds ranch and the Federal land are said to be more productive and healthier from the clearing, but the government seems intent on making a show of who is in charge.
The charge of arson, which in and of itself seems like a huge miscarriage of justice, in that it carries a mandatory sentence of 5 years in prison. A judge who tried the case thought so too and said that it would be improper and unfair to send them to prison for 5 years each, so he sentenced the Hammonds to less than a year in jail, which they completed some time ago. However, a judge or government agency seeking to show ranchers everywhere just who is in charge has demanded that the Hammonds serve the full five years, and the father and son left for prison last week.

WHERE ARE ALL THE LOUD MOUTHS THAT SAY THEY STAND FOR FREEDOM ?? COME UP AND HELP……
I doubt any of those guys have any skills accessing documents.
better pay attention. This is how ruthless, tyrannical, and criminal that your government has become. what they are doing is to your benefit. using the public’s otherwise unused land allows the ranchers to raise and sell more cattle which keeps the price of beef and leather goods down as well as readily available.. All of the information, computer, and facilities were paid for by the public and belong to the citizens of the united states. The ranchers also maintain your land as they use it. the government wants this land because of the Uranium and gold on it as well as to support UN Agenda 21 which drives everyone off of their land and into small cities. you got a really good deal for something that you don’t normally use or pay attention too.
BLM EPA IRS and several other three letter agencies need to eliminated

the dysfunctional court is just that you have no chance it’s an unjust system.
They’re being infiltrated throughout the Union placed in the positions.
Pretty simple you don’t put somebody in jail and say they are guilty of something and they spend their time and then you’re not happy about
And then implement narrow-minded thinking representing Lady Justice absolutely unacceptable we let people go out of prison that’s murdered people we let people go out of the federal court room for an air.
But in this case here it’s okay to have double jeopardy which is against Lady Justice
