They who? I am not impressed with this former sheriff, seems to me he is only stirring the pot to keep himself attention. I may be wrong but I am guessing he has a book to sell and or wants to be a consultant for FOX news. At this point I don’t believe a word he says, some say he really knows his stuff but he has no ranching background that I am aware of nor is he from Nevada. He cannot possibly be an expert at any of this. I am also skeptical that he has so many contacts with the feds that are keeping him in the loop on this.
I have been part of the ranching community since birth and would bet if this was ever considered by Bundys even for a moment it was suggested by the women themselves. Ranch women are not like city women, not at all.
