Many observers were surprised, as they viewed government's case as weak. Defendant Carter Camp said that it was not a surprise, that they're dealing with a fascist court. "Just because they found us guilty don't mean that we're gonna stop in the struggle, will only add more fuel to the fire of revolution in this country because it's gonna have to come now. This is gonna make Indian people struggle a lot harder. We can struggle in the prison just as well as we can struggle on a street, we're never gonna quit. The fight's just started. [We] will continue fighting no matter what this judge does. This verdict doesn't make any difference, it's only gonna encourage our people to fight harder, and show that there is no justice in this system."
