Welp Sandy is the first of Tarp Team 4 to be released.

http://www.upi.com/Top_News/US/2016/02/20/First-of-4-Oregon-wildlife-refuge-holdouts-released-from-custody/8761455978347/

quote:

Federal Magistrate Judge Janice M. Stewart said Friday Anderson, despite her "very public defiance" of federal officers, is not a flight risk due to her lack of criminal history and the fact she has held a steady job.

Court-appointed defense lawyer, Tyl Bakker, claimed Anderson was not aware of federal orders to vacate the location, calling her a "relatively minor player," who became "mixed up" in the circumstances....

As part of her release agreement, Anderson, 48, will not be permitted to directly contact her husband, who is still in custody. Travel will also be limited between her home state of Idaho and Oregon for court appearances.

Ethan Knight, assistant U.S. Attorney, argued for Anderson to remain in custody, citing an unspecified mental illness...

I doubt that steady job still exists.

Her steady job was working in a gas station. If her boss likes her it is easy enough to fit her back into the schedule.

Just in case anyone was worried that this wasn't going to trial:

quote:

After the arrests of Cliven Bundy and Ammon Bundy in Oregon, the pair are being held on a number of charges. They are now releasing updates through attorneys and through the Facebook page associated with Bundy Ranch. In the latest series of updates, they ask for donations, declare the Federal courts ‘lawless,’ and maintain that they are being persecuted for unpopular speech.




Pretty sure Gavin Seims is the guy who hosted that last call the Patriots made.

The fact that these dangerous idiots are going to die in prison only proves that the system works. I feel much safer knowing they have been removed from society. Thank you, Federal Government.

i heard someone rationalizing that once by saying that the word was translated wrong and doesn't mean "needle" it means "front gate" and so the rich would have an easy time going through the "front gate" of heaven because they're riding on their camels :downs:

It's why Bundy freely shares his cattle with all of his neighbors; at least in the having to deal with them and share in his stock's illnesses, too.

There is the gate interpretation, but it actually supposedly refers to a gate called "eye of the needle" which was a night-gate for Jerusalem but it was so narrow that rich people with camels carrying all of their poo poo couldn't fit in.

Most of the alternate interpretations try to rationalize the absurd image of a camel/ needle analogy while keeping the anti-rich message. Some think camel was supposed to be a Greek word for thick rope that keeps the analogy less idiosyncratic. But changing the metaphor for ideological reasons would be considered blasphemy.

Wasn't the Eye of the Needle gate in Jerusalem built in the 16th century, though? I've always leaned towards the theory that "kamilos" (rope) was mistranslated as "kamelos" (camel) somewhere down the line. That would make sense, i.e. a "trying to thread a needle with a rope" metaphor.
