Ammon likes to talk about holding elected officials accountable. Someone held him accountable on Thursday. He was sentenced to 10 days in jail and was ordered to pay a $3,000 fine after being found guilty of contempt of court. Finally. He refused to complete 40 hours of community service related to his conviction of being at the state Capitol. He had argued that his stops during the campaign satisfied his community service requirement. It was a good sign to see a lawbreaker given a proper punishment. It comes down to the belief that the rules don't apply to him. It is part of a long-standing pattern with the man. He and his family were involved in an armed standoff with federal agents. After coming to the rescue of two ranchers in Oregon who were duly prosecuted and convicted, he led an armed temper tantrum takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife refuge, which ended in the death of one of the protesters. In both instances, he escaped conviction. The shutdown of a high school football game over a mask mandate was one of the things that led to the mob storming the Idaho House chambers. He was given an easy sentence for violating the law, but he couldn't complete it. We hope that his 10 days in jail will help him reflect on how to be a more positive member of society. It's probably too much to ask from a man with such a deep sense of entitlement. After his arrest in April, camera footage from an Idaho State Police trooper's vehicle showed him speaking directly to a state trooper. In the video, he said he would come after you personally. I will find out where your homes are. I will get all those things. He said he would come for them legally. If history is any indication, we suspect that Bundy will sic his followers on the judges, lawyers and police officers, ordering his protesters to shout, threaten and hurl obscenities in yet another temper tantrum because he broke the rules. We can only hope that there is room in the cell beside him if his followers decide to protest and cause a commotion. The Idaho Statesman's editorial board has a consensus on Statesman editorials.
