I guess the majority of the people in this thread are ok with the govt taking people's property whenever they feel like it.

They are in a vacant building in the middle of the forest. They could have as big of a March/sit-In/protest as they want and have essentially zero effect on anything.

You can't comprehend how that makes this a little different?

This is called minimizing. You left out very important info. They are not in some woodshed flop put together by some hillbilly eating hotdogs.

Well more than 150 have taken over areas of Detroit and no one is bitching...
Fwiw, I don't understand what these guys are trying to accomplish in Oregon...

Was the chicken coop publicly owned and abandoned in the middle of nowhere?

can you imagine the response if a group of "dindus' as they call them here took over a federal building like this. This place would be calling for an all out bombing. And every one of you know I am right. Bookmarked for later linking

Just started following this story.
Did the Feds increase the jail time to 5 years or was that the original sentence??

Free shite as in free use of federally owned land. They hate the federal government except when they wanted and got federally backed six figure loans.

Whose property was taken? It is undisputed that they started a fire which, at least accidentally, spread onto federal land.

What I got from it is it started over the Federal Prison Time given to two Brothers that burned 150 acres of Federal Land while burning the Federal Land they were leasing to graze cattle to destroy evidence of their Deer Poaching.

Grandpa told Grandson that testified,"Burn it all boy."

I guess they want the Gov't to leave them alone.

And exposure to how ridiculous it is for them to have to go back to jail after already serving their time as assigned by the first judge.

It's not a good argument in the above formulation. So it's probably not a good argument.
