The Bundys still own their ranch and most of their cattle:
‘As Fox News reported last night, despite a court order restricting the BLM to only seizing Bundys cattle, video shows that federal agents cut holes in water tanks and destroyed fences belonging to Bundy during the operation. According to Bundy, the BLM also killed two prize bulls for no reason. The Bureau of Land Management has failed to respond to the allegations.’

Hopefully, they will win in court or get a healthy settlement to undo the damage.
I'd love to see the BLM dissolved. Public lands can easily be managed by the states, and should be. There is no constitutional authority for the Fed Gov to own land outside of national parks and the District of Columbia.
And there should be only ONE armed federal law enforcement bureau in the Fed Gov: the FBI. Period. Every other department should disband their police forces.
The bigger picture is that the Bundy's were far from the only ranchers steamrolled by the FedGov. A long established pattern of abuse and theft preceded the "Bundy Standoff."
FEDS SEIZE FAMILYS RANCH-Property owners fight government land grab!!!
