I am seriously shocked. That lady who was covering this case must be shook as gently caress. The prosecutor is probably on suicide watch. I would be.

Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas?

This had to be lost at jury selection, there's no way this jury was going to convict anything. The charges were not outlandish at all.

This jury had no interest in looking at this case in even the most superficially objective manner. It was all about keeping their heroes free and only lasted this long because there was one that cared about laws until he got kicked out.

Just wait until the Bundy get a grand jury of their own together. Then they'll really be sorry.

That's exactly how sovcit propaganda works. "Hey since X happened they jury believes Y" and this case is going to be seen as a giant loving victory for all sorts of far right insanity.

It's strange that such a fundamental element of the justice system can be compromised if even a small minority of the population comes to accept jury nullification as legitimate. It would be difficult to prosecute even marginally popular defendants in that scenario. Fortunately the Bundys will never be popular.

It turns out I'm a big idiot who knows nothing.
