He asks a very valid question which no one will hear because of the headlines.

“Are they bettor off being slaves, with work and a good family life or being slaves to the government getting things for free and doing nothing?(my paraphrase)

A valid question. maybe said poorly. Watch the video, don’t let the article do your thinking.

Cliven Bundy Makes Ridiculously Racist Comments, Says Blacks 'Better Off' As Slaves

Yeah, how dare an almost 70 year old man be so busy working, he doesn't realize using words like Negro and slavery have become taboo?

What gets me is all the backpedaling his political supporters are now doing. Paul and Heller (I think is the name) have their panties all in a wad over it.

Why don't they just stand up and say:

"I agree with Bundy - people who lead productive lives are better off than those who live on the government plantation”

Which is nothing LESS than what he said or what many of them have said as well....but NO! They cower at the 'taboo' words and wet themselves when they hear the word RACIST!

What a bunch of disgusting, gutless wonders.

Actually, he wondered if their slavery now is worse than their slavery then.

However, he made a mistake even discussing the issue at all.

Bundy's comparison of black misery under welfare to slavery was a rhetorical question. Bundy did not state his preference. He posed the question. Bundy expressed the views of Daniel Patrick Moynihan, using Moynihan's language.

Where is the hanging offense, other than inside socialist and GOPe craniums?

This bears no comparison to Mourdock's malaprop.

Is real slavery better than welfare Plantation slavery? Probably not as most people prefer to be hopelessly idle than forced to work.

If your going to become a public conservative figure unfortunately your every word no matter the context is going to be used against you. There really ain’t anything anyone can do about that besides live a perfect life to minimize the words and thoughts used against you.

One thing is for sure, Bundy isn’t helping himself by pointing out uncomfortable truths. We need a majority to at least sympathies with the western lands situation, not become convinced as the NAZI left is currently trying to that theses are people to be demonized and condemned.

Bundy needs a PR agent.

People should learn to opine only on what they really know about. This man is an expert on one side of the BLM/rancher dispute. He should address that, but why wander off to subjects not in his bailiwick?
