LAS VEGAS --  A deal has been reached between Bundy family leaders and the BLM, but not without some very tense moments.

Armed Bundy family leaders met with BLM officers Saturday afternoon in Mesquite to discuss the fate of the Bundy's cattle that the feds removed from BLM land, over the past week. The cattle are being held at a holding area in Mesquite.

Prior to the meeting, hundreds of protesters, some armed, tried storming the BLM's cattle gate, but weren't successful. The crowd was urged to wait 30 minutes and give both sides a chance to talk. An agreement was reached that the cattle will be released to the Bundy family later Saturday.

At one point, I-15 was closed in both directions, about seven miles south of Mesquite, because protesters had blocked the freeway. Nearly two dozen police officers and a SWAT unit were at the scene to keep the peace and assist the BLM enforcement officers to safely leave the area.

Protesters have been gathering all week in support of rancher Cliven Bundy, who has been locked in a legal battle for the past 20 years over grazing rights with the federal government

keep his cattle confined to his private property.

Nevada is an open range state. He's not required to keep his cattle confined.

Yankees often don't understand open range law.

"Nothing had better happen to Mr. Bundy. Obama’s gotten too large for his rompers."

What a mental image that brought up. Thanks for the unexpected laugh out loud!

I guess the hits told them their preplanned operation had been found. I expect the cancellation and backing off prior to May 21st means the BLM was told to let the 2014 election unfold then use another means...possibly a campaign against Bundy on a different front.
Thanks for info.
