Paul sided with Bundy in that fight, arguing that Nevada and local authorities should control the land.

The situation is that the Feds are violating the constitution and attempting to enforce the unconstitutional situation which is beyond their jurisdiction.
The Feds will never understand the support the Bundy family has in western rural America. Claude Dallas had the support of the majority of Great Basin ranchers and he killed a couple of hated game wardens near Paradise Valley, NV. They were trying to keep Dallas from earning a living as he violated game laws. The Bundys are far more sympathetic than Dallas.
