I was quoting what I read about all the auctions refused to take any of Bundy’s cattle in several states, but Utah man was willing to take the money BLM offered and the Gov of Utah would not let the cattle be driven across state line...there was no one to take the cattle. That is when some got killed...two bulls shot.
All of that happened while BLM was still there at the standoff...the whole story has not been assimilated in one place so everyone understands how well the ranchers, American patriots, and supporters of Bundy were organized. BLM had no choice but to let the cattle go and stand down!
We get pieces of it, interviews, and the outcome but not how effective citizens were in working together to support him in other places too. I wasn’t criticizing what you said, only that BLM tried to sell them in other states before taking them off the land, however there were no takers!
Aaah - gotcha. I don’t know why they didn’t take them to a Nevada auction yard - no state lines to cross, no governor to stop them at the border.
