RENO, Nev. (AP) U.S. Bureau of Land Management officials say they agree with a Nevada sheriff's position that rancher Cliven Bundy must be held accountable for his role in an April standoff between his supporters and the federal agency.
Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie said Bundy crossed the line when he allowed states' rights supporters, including self-proclaimed militia members, onto his property to aim guns at police.
"If you step over that line, there are consequences to those actions," Gillespie told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "And I believe they stepped over that line. No doubt about it. They need to be held accountable for it."
Bureau spokeswoman Celia Boddington, in a statement released Saturday to The Associated Press, said the agency continues to pursue the matter "aggressively through the legal system."
"There is an ongoing investigation and we are working diligently to ensure that those who broke the law are held accountable," she said, declining to elaborate.
The FBI declined comment Saturday on its investigation. Bundy did not respond to a request for comment.
The Bureau of Land Management says Bundy owes over $1 million in fees and penalties for trespassing on federal property without a permit over 20 years. Bundy, whose ancestors settled in the area in the late 1800s, refuses to acknowledge federal authority on public lands.

Maybe the only reason those bastards in BLM did not shoot it out with them, is they did not want another Waco. I am sure those bastards in BLM really DID want to kill all those peasants out there in the desert. One of these days, there really will be a bloodbath. I think we are past the point where voting matters anymore.
Time to head back to Nevada I think.
Gear up.
Roger that. I agree with your tag line. If we are not past the point of no return, we will be soon.
The Government and that corrupt Sheriff have no intention of Bundy going to trial. They want to murder him as soon as they can.
Love this quote. Found it quite applicable to the Bundy situation:

The paradox is that abnormal

are normal.
They’ll strike again. The peasants must not be allowed to challenge their enlightened leaders.

Start with D.C. - if lawmakers aren't held responsible, then they have no right to insist that the People are held responsible.
And when the government crosses that line there are consequences as well.
Is there a Cliven Bundy Legal Defense Fund, yet? Ultimately, the only way to stop these jack-booted thugs will be in court.
If they can’t kill you with guns they will kill you financially.
Lawsuits, the new weapon against freedom and free speech!
How is that going to happen? They own the courts and Judges.
And what about Al Sharpton?
I really think this time they'll go after him through the courts. They'll freeze his bank accounts, eliminate his cash stream, and make it impossible for him to buy supplies for himself or his livestock or to sell any of his cattle.
A Jew being tried in one of the 1930s Germany's "People's Courts" would receive a fairer trial than Bundy will get.
Al Sharpton is Black
Al Sharpton works for NBC
Al is therefore immune from sin
QED
The “Voting matters” train pulled out of the station long ago.

They found themselves in the middle of a ‘kill zone’.
The BLM rambo cowards had never met with armed resistance before.
