Greta now has a write up on her blog at this link, slightly different title than the video only link:

http://nation.foxnews.com/2014/04/15/exclusive-did-feds-kill-ranchers-cows-dig-mass-grave
“Cliven’s son Ryan Bundy shared video of what he believed to be a mass grave dug by the government.

He noted that at least one dead cow could be seen in the 18-by-45 foot area.

Cliven Bundy told FOX News that a single cow could fetch as much as $2200 at market, meaning that the numerous missing cattle could have a damaging effect on the family’s business going forward.

Officials have yet to comment on Ryan Bundy’s video.”

That was probably intended for the protesters.

I wasn’t aware that any of the cattle died, but did see an article that some of the calfs are very sick and might not make it.

This would require a backhoe. So, you go over to the nearest BLM center and ask them about their backhoe being out (they typically one and only one). I would imagine they don’t want to provide any comments. If the cows are found with gunshot wounds....it opens up a pretty big mess. Someone will ask about BLM folks with expenditures of ammo, and you’d need a court situation to dig further into this.

There was mention of a backhoe on a trailer by a protester who was interviewed there. The BLM uses large holes in the ground like this to close a road to all traffic, jeeps etc.

The BLM were apparently tearing up the watering systems that had been developed over the decades on Public Land.

Photos of those destructive actions should be made.

In the first video posted, the taser one, the Bundy supporters can be clearly heard repeatedly asking, “What are the backhoes for?, What are the backhoes for??” The cattle weren’t meant to survive and by extension neither were the Bundy’s.

I do believe it was Bundy who put in those watering systems.

I think an examination of the cows in the grave will reveal that they didn’t die a normal death....and thus a report to the county sheriff will open up a grand jury episode. Some guy....really opened up a can of worms here. No fed protection for shooting cows....you get taken to the grand jury and have to explain your episode. Even if you were just the back hoe operator....you basically were part of some conspiracy. All of this leads back to paying the rancher for his cows....if there are ten....figure $20,000, and probably another $5k to $10k for damages. The BLM won’t pay for that stuff....it’ll come out of your own pocket. So I think I’d start pointing fingers quickly and note which BLM guy did the killing. If I were the guy....I’d pack up and leave the state.

What is disgusting is the “Bundy is a sob , Bundy is a crook, Bundy is a ______” posse that stalks these threads.

This backhoe positioning brings up the topic of a conspiracy. They had to have some plan like this already in their mind...thus requesting the backhoes to be brought out and put in position to bury them.

Frankly, this opens up a big can of worms. Who in BLM knew of the backhoe request? Who authorized the backhoes to be brought out? Who operated the backhoes? Who shot or killed the cows?

Once you establish this was planned ahead of time (not afterwards)....this gets into jailtime (not just a fine or paying for the cows). If you were for BLM...there’s no legal protection for you, and whoever dreamed up this episode....is kinda finished for a government job. A felony gets you jailtime, and your gov’t job is wrapped up....secret clearance gone, and you can expect at least six months in some state jail. Pretty stupid....over cows and BLM. I wouldn’t want to do time for some petty reason like this.

Another reason the JBT declared a “no fly zone”, over the area....

“Did Feds Kill Cows, Dig Mass Grave?”

Only the straight, male, white, Christian ones were killed — The gay cows were released.

Yes, according to his daughter, the Bundy family has done improvements to the land - including water, roads (probably the ones Fedzilla used to access the cattle) and fencing.

No fed protection for shooting cows
___________________________________________________

Ignorant, arrogant little Hitlers thrashing around in an environment they know nothing about. Tearing up the terrain, terrorizing and killing cattle, burying the killed cattle which is now against the law in some states, terrorizing and assaulting citizens. And now I hear they are obtaining arrest warrants against all the protesters for obstructing their crazed, ideologically driven tyrannical “justice.” It is looking more and more like this is where the reformation will begin.
