I am an idiot: Ryan Bundy demands $100 million to stand trial or $1 million to serve as own judge

Ryan Bundy, who led the armed Oregon occupation with his brother, asked the federal government to pay him at least $1 million to stand trial.
The 44-year-old Bundy, who is serving as his own attorney, filed court documents this week using sovereign citizen jargon to the government had no authority over him and said he would not accept the role of defendant unless he was handsomely rewarded, reported Oregon Public Broadcasting.
I, ryan c, man, am an idiot of the Legal Society; and; am an idiot (layman, outsider) of the Bar Association; and; i am incompetent; and; am not required by any law to be competent, Bundy wrote in the motion.
Bundy, who authorities say plotted an escape attempt earlier this month from the Multnomah County Detention Center, accused U.S. District Court Judge Anna Brown of perjury and demanded up to $100 million to serve as a defendant in the Malheur National Wildlife Reserve case.

He is very typical of GOPers, they are all insane when it comes time to reason stuff out.

Good luck to him on that defense because I suspect all it will earn him is a longer prison sentence.

They can refuse all they want. The US does not recognize anything within its borders as a sovereign.
