Ammon Bundy and 15 more of the armed occupiers who took over the Malheur Wildlife Refuge for 41 days and cost the state $3.3 million and counting in damages appeared in court today and pleaded "not guilty" to a federal conspiracy charge. Oh! And did so in an unshockingly stupid way. From CBS News:

U.S. District Judge Anna Brown reminded the defendants Wednesday that they are considered innocent until proven guilty. Several of the accused doubted that assertion. One of them, Jason Patrick, said: "You're the federal government; you're going to do whatever you want."

FUCK YOU, JASON PATRICK. (BTW, this Jason Patrick is not the most awesome Jason Patric.)

This also happened (from KOIN News).

Ammon Bundy wanted to address the court and wanted to make arrangements to be taken down to Harney County. But in a very stern tone Judge Brown told him to sit down and denied his request.

FUCK YOU, AMMON BUNDY. Sit your ass DOWN and shut the FUCK up!

Oh, and then there was this (from the Guardian):

Ryan Payne, one of the key militia leaders with a long history of protesting the federal government, said he didn’t understand how he could be presumed innocent when “we have spent the past month in prison and are led around in chains and shackles everywhere we go”.

FUCK YOU, RYAN PAYNE. You don't know how the fucking Constitution works, and you don't know how the criminal justice system works, which leads the rest of us to believe YOU DON'T KNOW HOW ANYTHING FUCKING WORKS. Again, FUCK YOU, you hillbilly idiot.

If convicted, these time-wasting country bumpkin dingbats will face six years in prison. The trial is set to start on April 29, but most observers think that's a pipe dream. SO SIT YOUR SO-CALLED "NOT GUILTY" DROOLING HAYSEED ASSES IN JAIL A FEW MORE DAYS, YOU IGNORANT GUN-SUCKING DUM-DUMS.

Have a good day, everybody.
