100-plus Bundy supporters protest at federal courthouse

“This is his first offense, no priors. He should be able to go home,” Carol Bundy said. “They give that to everybody else. He’s an honest, upstanding man. He wouldn’t run and hide.”

Demonstrators didn’t bring the long guns to the rally that many expected they would, but they carried flags and handmade signs.

One woman carried a yellow Gadsden flag displaying a coiled snake and the slogan “Don’t tread on Me.” Another man held a large sign, that read “Save the Patriots from the Oathbreakers.”

more (other articles say some were carrying guns & pictures look like about 50 protesters?)

Documents: OSP Moved Fatal Traffic Stop To Avoid Grant County Sheriff

“I knew going into it that there was a sheriff in Grant County that was supporting the movement or the ideology behind what [the occupiers] were pushing,” Officer No. 1 told investigators.

“I knew that there was a large amount of community members in Grant County that supported their beliefs … for a very simple way to put it it, they were not friendly to law enforcement conducting any enforcement actions, and mainly the Federal Bureau of Investigation and federal agencies,” the officer said.

I love the picture from the Denver rally.

Next time, they could save themselves a lot of trouble of setting up that sound system and everything, if they just walk a couple of blocks over to the 16th Street Mall, and have their rally around a table while they are eating pizza or something.:thumb:

Burns Paiute Tribe Holding Post-Militia Cleansing Ceremony

A number of tribes will be joining with the Burns Paiute Tribe at sunrise on Saturday, March 12, to conduct a cleansing ceremony at the Malheur Wildlife Refuge near Burns, Oregon. Tribal Chairperson, Charlotte Rodrique, stressed it would not be on the refuge but instead on a high point across from the refuge.

The reason for the cleansing ceremony is to clear the aura from the area following the takeover of the refuge. Charlotte explained that it still feels uncomfortable. “We went down and smudged and there was just a feeling that when those people started touching the artifacts and waving them around, those sorts of things were disrespectful in our eyes and those spirits were agitated and bothered.” She noted that the person waving things around died a couple of days later and the lady doing the filming had a tragic death in her family within a week.

Oregon standoff defendant says he was just borrowing government truck to get groceries

“Kenneth Medenbach charged with federal conspiracy and theft of government property in the takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge, waived his right to a lawyer Friday, citing his deeply held religious beliefs.

"I have a Holy Spirit that lives in me and will guide me through this. He's the creator of heaven and Earth. This is a small thing for him,'' Medenbach told the court. "This life is immaterial to a future life in heaven. It's small stuff.''

Medenbach, 62, signed off on the waiver, despite repeated efforts by U.S. District Judge Anna J. Brown to discourage him.”

*

“The judge made sure Medenbach recognized the potential maximum sentence on the charges he faced if convicted – six years for conspiring to impede federal officers at the wildlife refuge and 10 years for the theft of a government truck. She also asked if Medenbach had ever been diagnosed with a mental illness, and he replied that he hadn't.”​

Good article.

Medenbach said he had represented himself in the past in state court, but acknowledged he didn't win any of those cases. But, he added, "I was able to speak my mind.''
Some people never learn.

“Slow-motion video of gunshot FBI allegedly lied about in LaVoy Finicum confrontation

New cell phone video captures Robert "LaVoy" Finicum as he steps out of his truck the instant after a bullet pierces the truck roof and hits the passenger window through which he is seen. The U.S. Justice Department is investigating whether an FBI agent lied about firing that shot. Here we show the video in slow-motion.”

I've read the FBI shot was before, after, a minute after LF exited the truck & the shot that grazed Ryan B. Important factor for trial. It will be twisted to no end in court...hurry up investigation.
