I wonder what most people imagine when they hear "armed militia hijack government building". I bet they aren't picturing what the building actually looks like, located in one of the least densely populated areas in the lower 48 states.

That's correct. They are criminals and deserve to be punished.
1.No they aren't.
2. They were already punished under an asinine and constitutionally illegal law.This was NOT terrorism,its just the pissy government getting pissy.
The Hammonds burned 138 acres of public land to cover the fact they were poaching there. It's in the trial records.
If this is true, it burns me up.
Why were they slaughtering deer on public land?
This is being depicted as a private land takeover by supporters of these people.
If the government is rededicating public land to a wildlife refuge instead of renewing sweetheart "welfare" leases at far below market value, as is typical of BLM lands all across the west, then good riddance, especially if they were slaughtering deer, which are a public resource.
If it is part private land takeover and part refusal to lease, then what are the percentages? More information, please.
It is a peaceful protest, they haven't hurt anyone. They said they have no plans to use force against anyone, but would defend themselves if attacked by police.
I don't understand why people who haven't hurt anyone are being compared to ISIS.
But will not rule out self defense if we are attacked. 2nd American revolution is a lot longer than the first for sure. Its opening volleys were at Ruby Ridge,Then Waco continuing on.

The Hammonds are claiming that they were burning to clear a section of overgrowth, and the fire got away from them. The question is, was there proof that they were poaching? Were they convicted of poaching, or is this the story the government is telling us to justify going after these people?
