Just In: Obama Accused By Congressman Of Illegal Action At Bundy Ranch
Western Journalism ^ | 04-17-2014 | B. Christopher Agee

Posted on 04/17/2014 8:33:38 PM PDT by Kevin in California

After the federal Bureau of Land Management agents backed down from their intimidating stance at the Bundy Ranch last weekend, ample evidence has surfaced indicating the standoff between the government and the Nevada ranching family is far from over. Throughout the weeklong stalemate, members of the Bundy family were physically assaulted by armed officers, numerous cows were shot dead, and protesters faced threats of gunfire for merely expressing their outrage.

Immediately after what many considered a victory against a tyrannical federal agency, a number of leftist voices – most notably, Sen. Harry Reid – indicated the action against this family will continue.

I first learned of the militarization of various gov agencies during the Clinton regime and I learned it first from FR!

I don’t remember learning anything about what/who authorized this transgression. I do remember that skank Diane Sawyer doing a report on the scary patriots that were making the poor BLM guys feel so endangered...

STEVE STOCKMAN KNOWS that Obama is an illegal alien terrorist.

That's exactly what zero is. Everyone instrumental in helping him deserves the firing squad, and they know it, which is why they will go down swinging.

The question that is NOT being asked is:

Why does the BLM need an army with ASSAULT weapons in the first place?

The chicken shit media won’t touch it!

Anybody with netflix can watch Trinity and Beyond, a documentary detailing all 334 above ground nuclear tests by us, and some of the Russian and Chinese tests. Everybody should see Trinity and Beyond.

Even more chilling is a book called 15 Minutes, a history of the H-Bomb and SAC.

“The most complete data is from the Beaver Dam Mountains. Woodbury and Hardy reported a tortoise population density of 150 per square mile in 1948. BLM reduced cattle grazing a few years later and eliminated cattle in 1970. Coombs reported a tortoise density of 39 per square mile in 1974. In these 26 years cattle use was reduced 100 percent and tortoise numbers were reduced 74 percent.

Boo hoo, 99.9% of all species that ever existed on this planet are extinct. Life goes on.

“... the bureau has no “right to assume preemptory police powers, that role being reserved to the States,” “

That makes the BLM’s ILLEGAL ADVENTURISM PERFECTLY CLEAR!

Heads MUST Roll

Good for Representative Stockman. It's appalling that out of 535 US Reps and Senators only one has the instincts to recognize how appalling this assault on US citizens is.

I agree. I am shocked Palin and Cruz have not come out and condemned this. Rustler Ried just handed the election to the Republicans on a silver platter.

Lou Dobbs, Hammity and Megan Kelly have all done a good job of covering this. Not one Republican has appeared on any of these shows.

One other thing. It is obvious many laws were broken. Is there not ONE law enforcement officer in America willing to arrest the perpetrators? No comments about jurisdiction. LV Metro PD was on this ranch.

Rand Paul was on Hannity last night discussing this.

Yes, pissed off about the government’s abuse of the Endangered Species Act to suppress economic activity.

He also called for peace and a reduction in tensions between both sides.

The guy from The Five who sat in for Hannity thanked Rand Paul for being the first Republican politician to weigh in on this issue.

I don’t understand how an American can do this to a fellow citizen. Do not the BLM personnel think for themselves?

“Because of this standoff,” he wrote, “I have looked into BLM’s authority to conduct such paramilitary raids against American citizens, and it appears that BLM is acting in a lawless manner in Nevada.”

All of the national clown's other agencies act in a "LAWLESS MANNER". Who expect the BLM to operate in a different mode?

Until America get's rid of the GOP-e leadership nothing is going to change and the Won will never be challenged other than some Kabuki theater on the days Issa feels up to it and has Bonehead's approval.

Essentially, My FRiend, the majority in Government, including the "Enforcement Agencies" let it be known whose side they will be on when the balloon goes up, a/k/a the order to round up legitimate gun owners and other supporters of the Constitution goes out.

Hint: It will not be the side of the legitimate gun owners or supporters of the Constitution. We will be as thoroughly as Mr. Bundy was and still is. Both by members of the general public and members of this forum[ if it is still around then].
