A federal jury on Thursday found Ammon Bundy, his brother Ryan Bundy and five co-defendants not guilty of conspiring to prevent federal employees from doing their jobs through intimidation, threat or force during the 41-day occupation of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
The Bundy brothers and occupiers Jeff Banta and David Fry also were found not guilty of having guns in a federal facility. Kenneth Medenbach was found not guilty of stealing government property, and a hung jury was declared on Ryan Bundy's charge of theft of FBI surveillance cameras.

Is this the ranchers who took over and holed up, then ran out of food?

I haven't followed this. Were they really not guilty?

No.
And I'm not a liberal.

In an emotional climax to the trial in U.S. District Court in Portland, Ammon Bundy’s lawyer, Marcus Mumford, was tackled to the floor by U.S. marshals as he became involved in a heated verbal exchange with the judge over the terms of his client’s release.
Supposedly the attorney was tased too. Such a solid group of individuals.

The Bundy's were fighting over grazing rights and the Feds taking over lands. Others were opportunist militants that joined up with the "cause". The militants are rejects that lied about their military experience and the only one with military experience is pretty psycho that gives right wingers a bad name.
The Bundy's have used Federal land for years worth of free grazing and Uncle Same wants to get paid. There's a lot to it and I guess it depends on how you feel about the US taking over whole states like the pretty much have done in Oregon.

The Bundys are opportunist as well. The went to Oregon over an arson case.

So they found 12 people who weren't brain-dead.

Jury nullification at its finest. Johnny Cochran is looking down with a smile

Holy crap. Read the article at the link. The US Marshals tackled and tazed one of the defense lawyers at the end when he demanded to see a copy of a retainer warrant for his client, the Judge ordered the courtroom cleared and the US Attorney left early to attend a Minority Voters political rally. What the frick has happened to our justice system?

Whole lot more to it than that. Not a fan of the Bundies, but the BLM and other federal land managers need to be called out.

Yeah there are no winners in this. I understand the Bundys have more at stake, but this entire Oregon ordeal was originally about an arson case that the Bundys made all about their "cause".
Let's not forget that someone lost their life over all of this stupidity.
