Before you make the judgment that the rancher Bundy did not pay the BLM its grazing fees for his cattle to graze where Bundy ranch cattle have grazed for 140 years, make sure you know the entire story.
Apparently it's not the tortoise the BLM is trying to save; it's an effort by Harry Reid, his son and Chinese cronies to boot Bundy from his land so they can build a solar farm. I hesitate to link to Infowars because they are firmly in the conspiracy camp, but they have the documents proving the facts.
Here it is from Dana Loesch Radio:
*UPDATE: Those who say Bundy is a “deadbeat” are making inaccurate claims. Bundy has in fact paid fees to Clark County, Nevada in an arrangement pre-dating the BLM. The BLM arrived much later, changed the details of the setup without consulting with Bundy — or any other rancher — and then began systematically driving out cattle and ranchers. Bundy refused to pay BLM, especially after they demanded he reduce his heard’s head count down to a level that would not sustain his ranch. Bundy OWNS the water and forage rights to this land. He paid for these rights. He built fences, established water ways, and constructed roads with his own money, with the approval of Nevada and BLM. When BLM started using his fees to run him off the land and harassing him, he ceased paying. So should BLM reimburse him for managing the land and for the confiscation of his water and forage rights?You can grouse all you want that Bundy didn't give the BLM its due, but at this point, the feds have brought in hundreds of snipers while ranchers and cowboys have rushed to the scene and see it as a standoff.
There is concern that the BLM is systematically killing Bundy's cattle for various reasons. (In a herd of over 900, one report said almost 300 have "disappeared" in the hands of the feds.)
Loesch points out that Harry Reid's former advisor is now head of the BLM.
We have a problem here and it's been building for decades. It didn't start under Obama but it's certainly accelerated to a dangerous point.
Rights and freedoms are being lost by a maniacal federal government with no accountability and many petty tyrants perched in powerful places willing to compromise our God given rights.
Prayers that this particular situation doesn't end badly because things don't look too great right now.
Can we call this Obama's war on white people? His administration refused to prosecute the new Black Panther Party for voter intimidation. It does not enforce immigration law. Its politically correct FBI allowed the Boston Marathon bombing by refusing to investigate known Muslim terrorists yet it has the manpower to marshal a small army of BLM snipers to collect grazing fees.
ReplyDeleteAnd we can't forget our borders. If only the feds put in the kind of determination and firepower they're using against Bundy, maybe we'd have some kind of security on the border. But never mind the farmers or ranchers. They aren't big contributors to the Democrat party.
ReplyDeleteReid won't get away with this as American citizens from all across the country are coming to Mr Bundy's rescue. How in the hell does Reid keep getting elected? What's the problem with those people in Nevada? They must have their heads stuck in the sand.
ReplyDeleteThe Harry Reid fans are located in only certain areas. Out in the state there is visceral HATRED for the man, including copious yard signs and even floats in parades that are anti-Harry. The problem is they have a lockhold on the states, the unions, and the vote tabulations. Just like all crooks. They work from the inside out.
Delete"Solidly in the conspiracy camp" has come to be a necessity for credibility. Unless you're there--in the conspiracy camp--you're missing something.
ReplyDeleteScary times. TPTB have been pinging the free for a long time, thwacking our ears, bucking for a reaction. They want their excuse to get rough.
I can only hope that civilized response will win out; I can dream that our courts will take this and put BLM guns up BLS asses, so to speak, put Harry the Dirty in jail, root out the rest of the conspirators and (man)handle them appropriately, and start fixing what's been broken. HA... HA... HAH...
The only question really is whether the folks who show up behind BLM lines also have such hopes and fantastical dreams.
In a sense, I agree with you about the conspiracy camp. I hesitate to write it because I think Inforwars tries to ramp up anxiety and fear, which is virtually the same that the White House does. But these ARE scary times. No one is accountable for much of anything. What could have possessed the BLM to go in with dogs, guns and numerous agents? Well, I guess we know that. We can only hope that, as you say, they also have hopes and fantastical dreams that don't include Harry Reid and corrupt government officials.
