Nevada Militia To Feds: ‘Control Our Borders, Not Our Ranchers’
CBS LAS VEGAS ^ | April 11, 2014

Posted on 04/13/2014 6:20:22 AM PDT by george76

The rural Nevada showdown between federal government officials and militia members protecting rancher Cliven Bundy has evolved into a battle of government “tyranny,” with many newly arriving militiamen rolling in to draw a line in the dirt about 70 miles northeast of Las Vegas.

...

“This is a better education than being in school! I’m glad I brought you. I’m a good mom,” Ilona Ence, a 49-year-old mother from St. George and Bundy relative who brought her four teenage children to the ranch, told the Las Vegas Sun. “They’re learning about the Constitution.”

Ence’s teenage sons posted up a sign on the land voicing their opinion of what the federal government officials should be doing: “CONTROL OUR BORDERS! NOT OUR RANCHERS!”

“Well, there may be one or two. But, if they’re honorable, what the hell are they doing there?

Yes, honorable people don’t take dishonorable jobs. These “stool samples” evidently like this kind of work abusing their fellow citizens. But then, the same applies to a large percentage of our civilian law enforcement today. SWAT “Teams” need to be abolished by law. They are nothing short of paid assassins.

It’s amazing how fast the tyranny turned as soon as Dingy Harry and his sons corruption entered the picture...I don’t believe in coincidences.

Yep. You’re right. It’s pretty odd how fast this went away as soon as Chicom-Harry was mentioned. Tortoises my @ss! Right! Only the excuse.

Let’s be holding our breath how fast the Congressional investigation begins-—pffft!

We need congressional hearings. What committee has oversight over BLM?

UPDATE: Why the BLM is Standing Down in Cliven Bundy Dispute

Why? There’s a good possibility that the directive to stand down came from the White House. The Democrats are in a political tail spin. Political aspirations look bad for November. They don’t need daily reports on how the Feds are armed to the teeth persecuting a lone rancher and his cattle. Waco and Ruby Ridge come to mind. The Democrats are trying to clear the deck of potential bad news stories. Getting rid of Kathleen Sebelius is part of the process.

Reports that Harry Reid and his family have a vested interest in this government land doesn’t help the government’s case against Cliven Bundy, especially with the bad publicity that he’s gotten lately over payouts to his family.

Especially the weekend before our annual Tax Day reaming (in an election year, no less). People are PO’d at the general state of things and oversized, arrogant bureaucracies and their minions out harassing ranchers is really bad optics that are tailor made for social networking sites.

I’m sure there were DC officials screaming into their phones at the local administrators. “WTF are you doing out there?”

The whole operation was poorly planned from the get go and rapidly turned into an expensive, embarrassing fiasco.

The media has a strange perspective. They have rights protected by the first amendment, but anyone else be damned.

We can't trust ANY of the constitutional conservatives that have been sent to DC by the voters. Not one of them showed up on TV fake-news standing up for rancher's rights and against gov over-reach. Not one of them stood by the protestors against the BLM. Not one of them said put the BLM on our border with Mexico, where they can protect the land and taser, assault and threaten invaders.

They're not really with us, not one of them. And that includes our beloved Ted Cruz.

This is #1 of 75 videos on the subject. It might be an idea to download them all considering what happened at the Bundy Ranch this past week.<

As Jeb Bush would say, Cattle ranching is Bundy’s livelihood. It’s how he feeds his family. His trespassing cattle is not a crime; he’s doing it out of love for his family.
