Richard Curtis Deskins appeals his sentence for possession of firearms by a felon and for possessing an unregistered firearm. Deskins contends the district court improperly denied Deskins's an acceptance of responsibility adjustment because he admitted possessing the firearms. We disagree. Notwithstanding Deskins's admission, he put the Government to its burden of proof at trial so he could pursue defenses the district court characterized as "totally groundless." Also, Deskins did not demonstrate an acceptance of responsibility at trial; instead, he contended he was "set up" to purchase the firearms and that he was guilty only of standing up for his town, state, and country. We thus conclude the district court's decision to deny Deskins the acceptance of responsibility adjustment was not clearly erroneous. We affirm the district court. See 8th Cir. R. 47B.
