Just saw news flash - BLM is pulling out over concerns for safety.
I don’t expect anything from Fox anymore. Haven’t watched them for many months now. But isn’t Sheps job supposed to be to handle these big breaking news stories?
From what I’ve seen, all the pertinent information has been available on this site.

...The feds say Bundy owes $1 million in grazing fees while he maintains he only owes $300,000...

...Cannon said Bundy racked up more than $1.1 million in unpaid grazing fees over the years while disregarding several court orders to remove his animals.
Bundy estimates the unpaid fees total about $300,000.

The BLM designated 186,909 acres of the Gold Butte off-limits for the “critical desert tortoise” population in 1998. Bundy had already lost his grazing permit five years earlier for refusing to pay fees for the land, which his family has ranched since the 1870s. The “federal grazing fee” is $1.35 per “Animal Unit Month,” or the amount of forage needed per animal, each month. Bundy said he owes roughly $300,000 in back fees, while the BLM asserts he owes over $1 million.

A 68-year-old Nevada native, Bundy has long been at the center of a battle with the Bureau of Land Management, the federal agency controlling the 150 miles of desert where the rancher’s cattle have roamed for decades. A renegade when it comes to any sort of government control, Bundy — the father of 14 children — has refused to pay BLM a dime of required grazing fees for his 900 cattle, a tab that has since reached $300,000. Bundy has fought the fee, he says, because his Mormon ancestors set up shop on the land long before the BLM formed.
The government says that Cliven Bundy owes a million.
The government is liars, faithfully emulating the head of the government, President Simba, AKA Prince Pinocchio.
Bundy says he owes $300,000.
I believe Cliven Bundy, not unprosecuted felons from the BLM, or the IRS, or the DOJ.
But, I'm just a little persnickety that way...
LAL.
Too easy.
I vote for hot tar & bacon grease + feathers....
maybe followed with placed in a big Hamster ball, some CS and a flare gun?
Gotta make it “Sporting Ya know” Cheerio, Hip, Hip and Bully!
works for me...
I think the BIIIGGG fight is coming along the Red River in Texas, and soon.
Same criminal organization (blm) trying to steal 90,000 acres. Won’t go over well and thousands more patriots can show up there due to more central location.
Do helicopters do well if a bunch of helium balloons are released with wires hanging down from them? Just wondering.
Thanks for the strong refutation. As I worked my way through other posts I did notice that some had made this point, but it didn’t appear to make a difference to 99.6% of FReepers.
I read that Bundy claimed that his cattle were grazing on state land, not federal land, and that constitutionally the feds don’t have jurisdiction on state land and that he wouldn’t respect demands made by the feds. He claims that the feds are overreaching (as usual). I don’t know if he’s correct or not but he’s not backing down. I think I read it on Fox.
Seems to me this is all a series of smokescreens to divert attention from the truth...
No, really...;-)
Turtles. then some claims of non-paid grazing fees (says who?), then when the news breaks with the connection between Harry Reid, his former senior advisor who is now the Director of the Nevada BLM, then the sweetheart deal between that land management organization and the ChiComs for a solar panel production facility AND panel farm on that very property they stole those cattle off of...
Seems to me that if you follow the money, the real money, it leads straight to the perpetrator(s) of this sham...
I am still holding out judgment on this...I do not think there would be SO MANY PEOPLE rushing into a potential armed fight with the Feds if there was any credible deficiencies to Mr. Bundy’s situation, story...
And the fact that the Nevada BLM called in out of state armed “rangers” to bolster their force, is very reminiscent of the tactics used to pacify the people in New Orleans after Katrina...
The out of state forces have no real connection (emotional or physical) to the people they are asked to kill when ordered to do so...
Makes it easier to pull the trigger(s)...
Why do you do something like that if this is just a simple tax disagreement issue??? Whatever the amount???
I’m not buying the governments story on this, or the media’s portraying of this...
The fact that people like us are just itching for a fight should make the government give itself just a little pause in the future in starting up this kind of operation...
If the government is willing to take lives for a column in a ledger...What makes you think that when they really start hammering people that do not comply (so they say) with other over-reaching mandates, presidential EO’s, un-Constitutional efforts by the government???
Just my take on this...
22MM practice rifle grenades towing lines are a great helicopter repellent.
Maybe someone threatened to publish the address of the top 1000 in the BLM and the BLM Contractors.
It would be easy to slaughter hundreds of patriots in one place in Nevada. But much more difficult to kill them spread out over 1000 different locations.
lessons of Nam.
Yeah, their safety. Did you watch what really happened? Some good videos from the front lines.
Pretty much true but one of my cousins still has Custer’s hat.

TRY TO POST THIS ON FACEBOOK AND SEE WHAT HAPPENS!!!!
FACEBOOK IS AGAINST FREEDOM OF SPEECH. THEY DON’T WANT TO LET THE PEOPLE SEE THE POWER OF THE 2ND AMENDMENT.
I believe the lands were PUBLIC lands until the government pulled the ‘endangered animal’ trick and found a tortoise for then claiming the land as theirs and no longer ‘public’.
