"Michele Fiore and Malheur: If a bunch of armed yahoos broke into Michele Fiore's house, slept in her bed, ate her groceries, rifled through personal papers in her desk, rummaged through her family heirlooms, accessed her computers, drove her cars around, tore down her fence and dug up her yard with a backhoe, would she say they were exercising "their right to political free speech" when she called the police on them?"

See, I will - grudgingly - give this otherwise unlikable woman a modicum of credit for talking some calm into the heads of the Final Four. I may go so far as to believe that she figured out that her sort of rhetoric is considered actually believable by those of - ehm - lesser intellect, and that her actions were a bona fide attempt at undoing some of that. There's not a lot of responsibility being shouldered these days, and if she follows this up by dialing back the rhetoric, I may have to start having some respect for her.
Here is the Federal indictment, it lays out the entire chain of events and how the Bundy whack jobs and their whack-a-doodle supporters planned the showdown and the 2014 standoff with BLM.

I do give her credit in the end but early on she had repeated second hand information that Finicum was shot while surrendering. Like you indicated she started to see that her statements were being taken seriously by these people and if this progressed further her incendiary statements would certainly be in the spotlight and she would be partially responsible.
It appears her website is completely scrubbed from all her earlier messages reqarding the takeover, I think she understands the danger of the situation although she is late in that regard. She treated this like it was a game, it was not.
