**We're from the government and we're here to help you**

Groups from as far away as New Hampshire are riding out to Nevada to join the cattle rancher whose standoff with the federal government is growing tenser by the day.
The groups said they were going to the ranch, some 80 miles north of Las Vegas to stand with Cliven Bundy, who property is surrounded by federal agents. Bundy's herd, which once numbered nearly 1,000, is being thinned out by private contractors under the watch of dozens of armed federal agents in SUVs and helicopters, the government says, he has refused for two decades to pay fees to allow the cattle to graze on federal lands.
“Our mission here is to protect the protestors and the American citizens from the violence that the federal government is dishing out,” Jim Landy, a member of the West Mountain Rangers, who made the journey from Montana to Nevada, told Fox News Channel. “People here are scared.”
Bundy's family called for support this week after some incidents of violence between the family and protestors with law-enforcement. Bundy’s son was shot with a stun gun on Wednesday and his sister, Margaret Houston was pushed to the ground in incidents caught on video. The protests began to grow last week, after agents from the federal Bureau of Land Management shut off access to a large swath of federal land to round up Bundy’s cattle.

So THEY say.
F**K them!
First of all, the man doesn’t owe property taxes. He doesn’t own the land and he doesn’t claim to own it.
This situation is about a corrupt politician and his son making millions, if not billions, by stopping the last cattle rancher from grazing his cattle on land they want. That is exactly what “we the people” should stand up to. Sorta’ reminds me of the King’s soldiers taking over colonialists’ homes.
I will watch it.
I think on a broader level there is an anti-gov’t trend in popular shows.
This is a good thing.
But as the zombies wake up, they may still revert to positioning themselves within their politically correct group.
They know what’s right or wrong, but are still afraid to say soo.
Maybe I’m missing something but the land sold to the Chinese and the Bundy grazing lands were 170 miles apart. What is the connection?
What is the other hand doing while this drama unfolds?

“Everything old is new again”!
The Chinese objected to Bundy’s cattle grazing on those lands. Reid’s son represents the Chinese. That’s what I’ve read.
Someone needs to get that on camera. An ad during campaign season of the government shooting cattle and a voiceover saying "And you wonder why you are paying $4.75 a pound to feed your family...... Here is why"
This is older than Obama. The fed government has no business owning this land.
It appears this is an attempt by the Obama administration to incite violence under the pretense of protecting a turtle.
I just saw where the cattle will be taken to an auction in CA. That ought to be interesting.
““The historical record proves conclusively that tortoise thrive when cattle are on the range with them and without cattle grazing they are always malnourished and unhealthy and their numbers plummet.”
This little vignette shows rather clearly that the correct symbol for the Democrat party is not the donkey but the tortoise. The tortoise thrives when it is able to eat sh*t all day long.
Someone needs to be at that auction who will stand up and shout “Those are Bundy’s cattle” and see who will buy them.
Harry Reid is a vile bastard, always has been. I worked for the gold mines in northern Nevada and he wanted to tax them out of existence. He gives his cronys all the advantages while ignoring property rights of the common ranchers. Harry is a real SOB, always has been.
I’m surprised that Harry actually can step foot in Elko or Battle Mountain and I’ve been gone since 1989.
if anybody hurts the Bundy’s Reid should bear the responsibility
Deservedly so. Bur Harry won’t care.
Super good idea. Or a protest out front.
