Republican Senator Rand Paul called on Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid to “calm the rhetoric” on Cliven Bundy, arguing the Nevada senator’s “domestic terrorist” comment was “liable to stir up” the situation and lead to violence.
The Kentucky senator spoke Thursday night with Fox News’ Eric Bolling, who was filling in for Sean Hannity. “Is there any need to call Americans domestic terrorists?” Bolling asked.“No, I think what we should all be calling for is for calmer heads to prevail,” Paul said. “I don’t want to see violence on either side.”
“There is a legitimate constitutional question here about whether the state should be in charge of endangered species or whether the federal government should be,” Paul admitted. “But I don’t think calling people names is going to calm this down.

they also know that WACO would have never happened with a few hundred camera phones reporting live…..and they know that the first time some swat looking goon from the department of none of their hot damned business shoots a citizen….ALL HELL is breaking loose.
...Specifically, Harry Reid has presided over one of the biggest corporate welfare heists in this country's history -- it turns out that the mining industry has stolen $400+ billion of taxpayer dollars without ever having to pay for restoring federal lands that they had gutted after they were done mining the lands.And in a blatant conflict of interest, it turns out that Harry Reid owns several such defunct mining companies and his sons have financial interests in several others. In other words, Harry Reid is not working for the common good. He is in it for the benefit of himself. Coal, oil, and gas companies, as the article notes, have to kick back anywhere from 8 to 17% of their revenues back to the government annually. But thanks to Harry Reid and his cronies, the mining industry doesn't have to kick back any.

They also need to be using or have available sat phones and shortwave because cell towers will be turned off.
...But Reid's ties to mining run deeper than his sentimental connection to his rough-and-tumble origins. His sons Rory and Leif work for law firms that represent mining companies. Since 1999, his son-in-law, Steven Barringer, has earned as much as $3.7 million lobbying for mining interests including Barrick Gold, though he does not lobby Reid directly.
Reid's natural resources staffer, Neil Kornze, is the son of a geologist who discovered Barrick's Betze deposit outside Elko. Since 1994, mining interests have donated more than $269,000 to Reid, including at least $82,000 from Barrick and its employees
ALL HELL is breaking loose and I’m going to cheer it on in every way that I possibly can.
Amen bros
The truth is just floating to the top of the cesspool
When I was told that Reid with all his bravado and toughness never served a day of his life in any life on the line military branch I put him in the file as a disgusting person for such government status. It must have been all those south of the border voters along with big money gambling interests that gave Reid his feeling of worthiness. Of course I admit the root source of such power is a citizenry that places high value on the glitz of Hollywood life styles.
With the corruption in Holder's AG office there is no chance of getting Reid and his perps on RICO charges, let alone anything else...
It's up to We the People. Interesting times ahead.
“We must not allow the actions of criminals, no matter how heinous the crimes, to prompt politicians to enact laws that will infringe upon the liberties of responsible citizens who have broken no laws. Our children’s freedoms requires us to protect the 2nd Amendment with our life if necessary.”
Rather long, so just excerpting the first four paragraphs.
Bunkerville rancher Cliven Bundy is accusing the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) and a number of “contract cowboys” working for the agency, of killing and partially burying an unknown number of cattle in a remote “mass grave” on Gold Butte.
Bundy said Wednesday his sons and other family members found the dead cattle after the men began “getting back to ranching” since an explosive confrontation with BLM officials last Saturday.
Ryan Bundy, oldest of Cliven’s 14 children, said the “grave” was found while he was working to round up and bring cattle off the Gold Butte area into the Bundy ranch to be branded.
“They used a backhoe to dig a pit about 50-feet long, 18-feet wide and 10-feet deep that was backfilled with dirt and dead cattle for nearly 20 feet,” Ryan said. “There’s no way to tell how many animals were buried in it.”
