With anti-government sentiments roiling in the aftermath of Cliven Bundys Nevada standoff, government workers in western Utah are stripping BLM logos from their vehicles after two motorists brandished a gun and displayed a threatening sign at a federal wrangler who was driving Tuesday in Juab County.
The wrangler was driving a load of horses and burros north on Interstate 15 about 11 a.m. near Mills when a dark blue Dodge 1500 extended-cab pickup pulled up alongside the wrangler. The two occupants "told him he was No. 1 with that certain gesture," said Eric Reid, the wranglers supervisor at the U.S. Bureau of Land Managements Fillmore Field Office.
The pickup fell back and the wrangler continued north. A few minutes later, the pickup reappeared, Reid said. The men, wearing hoods, held up a sign, apparently scrawled on a piece of paper, that read, "You need to die." One of the men pointed what appeared to be a Glock handgun at the wrangler.
The wrangler tried to make out a license plate number, but the plate had been covered with duct tape, Reid said.

I agree.
how many "dark blue Dodge 1500 extended-cab pickup" trucks can there be near there that they don't pay every one of their owners a visit?
and if it IS true, they should all go straight to to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200 for felony stooopidity on top of what ever else they are charged with
He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance.
Too contrived for me...
It certainly seems that way. It may be that the BLM is getting ready to move in on Bundy. Those around Bundy should be aware that the BLM is now using unmarked vehicles, and anyone driving a "dark blue Dodge 1500 extended-cab pickup" may be a pre-determined target.
Someone without the presence of mind to get a cell phone pic or any other evidence, or to dial 9-1-1 when there was time for a real response, is expert enough to identify a Glock pointed at him? My guess is that this only happened in an email from a Senator with a financial interest in the outcome to a journalist hired to be a "wrnagler" for the day and paid to have this experience and then fear for his life.
In this day and age everyone has a cell phone, cell phones take pictures, where are the pictures? The whole story is fabricated, it is the US GØvt doing what the US GØvt does best, LYING!
This is a GØvt tax sucking scum bag making up a lie to make itself look like a man.

Yup. Feudal Lord Reid of the BLM calls them his “Reid’s Rustlers.”
