BREAKING: 200+ "Militarized" Federal Police Surround Peaceful Rancher in Nevada
Weve seen before at Ruby Ridge and Waco that the feds wont hesitate to treat peaceful American citizens as hostile and confront them with full armed force. This is happening yet again in Clark County, Nevada.
For over twenty years now, a battle has raged between cattle rancher Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management. Bundy has been using federal land to allow his cattle to graze, and the BLM has argued that this is trespassing because the land is protected and because Bundy has not paid required grazing fees.
Wonder if they will kill him like Clinton killed the people in Waco and Ruby ridge
Oh my goodness! All this for a few tortoise turtles? Seriously?! This comment from him is very telling.......
Bundys feel that this is an assault on liberty, state sovereignty, and property rights;
Weve tried to do this through the legal and weve tried to do it through the political, and what were at right now, I guess were going to have to try to stand, Cliven Bundy said. We the people have to stand on the ground and get our state sovereignty back, and also take some liberty and freedoms back to where we have at least access to this land.
The story is a lot about the cattle, but the bigger story is about our loss of freedom, Carol Bundy added. They have come and taken over this whole corner of the county. Theyve taken over policing power, theyve taken over our freedom, and theyre stealing cattle.
And our sheriff says he just doesnt have authority, our governor says he doesnt have authority, and were saying, why are we a state?
Im a producer, Cliven Bundy said. I produce edible commodity from the desert forage, and all of these things are governed under state law. So, in other words, this type of government has eliminated all of our state law, eliminated our state sovereignty, and has took control over our public lands and even took control over our Clark County sheriff. Theyve taken the whole county over. The whole state, almost.
This is just about power of the government, Carol Bundy said.
I think something is seriously wrong with our govt using military force on a private civilian! Very disturbing story! Incredible that the Governor cannot do anything about this!
