Re: Where should the militias make their next stand?
That brings up another question. I hadn't heard anyone say whether any charges will be brought under The Patriot Act?
Title VIII: "dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State" and are intended to "intimidate or coerce a civilian population," "influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion,"
Via Wiki
Would be most appropriate in this case. The penalties, I think, are a bit stiffer than "interference with a federal officer in the performance of his duties" and "unauthorized use of federal facilities" I keep hearing about.
Edited by AZPaul3, : No reason given.

Shocked!
Incredible! Surreal!
But, that is the verdict of the jury in a US federal court and not only must such be accepted but must be respected.
The seven are innocent of conspiracy.
