Where's All the Militias Supporting Bundy?

[Howey]

You gotta love the dumbasses who claim militia groups from all around the country are headed to Nevada to fight the evil federal government to protect the so-called rights of fat ass teabagger nutcase Bundy.

This from FOX News:

Groups from as far away as New Hampshire are riding out to Nevada to join the cattle rancher whose standoff with the federal government is growing tenser by the day.

The groups said they were going to the ranch, some 80 miles north of Las Vegas to stand with Cliven Bundy, who property is surrounded by federal agents. Bundy's herd, which once numbered nearly 1,000, is being thinned out by private contractors under the watch of dozens of armed federal agents in SUVs and helicopters, the government says, he has refused for two decades to pay fees to allow the cattle to graze on federal lands.

lol...how dishonest (of course it is Fox!)

The truth is a bit different...

FROM TODAY:

BUNKERVILLE — From near and wide, armed men are trickling toward Cliven Bundy’s ranch, where the rancher’s fight with the federal government has become a rallying cry for militia groups across the United States.

On Wednesday, that dispute teetered at the edge of deadly conflict, when Cliven Bundy’s family members and supporters scuffled with rangers from the Bureau of Land Management sent to protect the federal roundup of Bundy’s cattle on public land.

One of Bundy’s seven sons was shot with a stun gun, and Bundy’s sister was knocked to the ground; but no one was seriously hurt, and no arrests were made.

By late Wednesday, three militia members — two from Montana and one from Utah — had arrived at the ranch 80 miles northeast of Las Vegas. Other militia groups have inundated the Bundy household with calls and pledges to muster at the site. Their stated goal: to protect the Bundys from tyranny.

They say they are prepared for armed confrontation, but they insist they will not be the instigators if bloodshed happens.

Ryan Payne and Jim Lardy, members of the West Mountain Rangers, made the 12-hour drive from western Montana on Tuesday night. Payne is also a coordinator with Operation Mutual Aid, a national association that describes itself as a coalition of state militias.

OOOOOOOHHHHHHH!

I'm sure those hundreds of federal agents are skeered now!

Didn't you just start a thread to the mods complaining about all the threads on this issue?

Militias as well as just Americans completely pissed off have been coming in all night and today. The BLM was outnumbered by thousands of Americans. The Director of Land Management has declared the operation too dangerous to continue and has ordered the withdrawal of all federal officers.

It is over. Bundy won. He lost half his herd. But he won.

FOX news update. They didn't provide many details but the BLM has decided to pull out and discontinue the operation for the safety of their employees and the public.

There are a lot of armed people there. The BLM is lucky they aren't corpses. Howey Homosexual should be thanking the people that showed for actually preventing a massacre.

It would not surprise me if some militia climbed up the ridges behind the snipers and took their weapons. That's why this came to such a screeching halt.

There were thousands of people there with more arriving every minute. There was no way this could have been permitted to turn violent. Those feds would have been taken out in a matter of minutes.
