New images of cattle rancher Cliven Bundys tense standoff with the Federal Bureau of Land Mangement (BLM) on Saturday afternoon reveal how the armed agencys military operation configured to forcefully engage Bundy cowboys and their supporters who sought to liberate federally confiscated cattle over the weekend.
These exclusive images were taken by a GMN photographer positioned right above the action on the Southbound side of Interstate 15 near Bunkerville, Nevada.
Despite the BLM being instructed to leave the Bundy Ranch and Gold Butte area earlier that morning, the agency still insisted had a legal right to be there and that it would not let go of hundreds of cows it had already taken away from the Bundy Family. Critics are asking if that legal right also includes stationing a federal military force in Bunkerville.
Prior to this standoff, the special agent in charge of BLMs ground operations, Daniel P. Love, had issued a warning that any one who crosses the federal line in order to free the seized cattle will be arrested. Love went on boasting his agencys advantage over Bundy supporters when saying, Ive seen your numbers right now, youd better hope that 10,000 show up.
It turns out that protesters needed far less numbers to overcome Loves federal army. In the end, a Bundys contingent of 150 cowboys on horseback and a few hundred of peaceful supporters backed by a well-organised volunteer militia, all together, proceed to march past the BLMs line of demarcation to the entrance of cattle holding area, prompting the platoon of armed federal tactical teams to stand down and fall back.
This is the first collection in a three part series, showing the federal governments military build-up to Saturdays climax under US Interstate 15

Clean-up on post 29 by the Boss hisself.
Boot licking troll in love with the Feds exiled to the Nevada range.
They are in the works I am told. BLM guys still blocking open access to some areas and their closure has two weeks to run yet. They are itching to find people on the range “illegally”.
Don’t YOU have firearms?
Aren’t YOU prepared to use them to defend your family and yourself?
Bunkerville, NV: What Sort Of Tacticool Sunglasses Is The "Contractor" Wearing?,
Wherein the FReepers discover just who Daniel P. Love of the Brave BLM Companions really is:
We have quite a Putin-Is-Always-Right contingent here. They have hair triggers and jump down the throat of anyone who questions Putinism.
I hijacked this thread to prove that point. It worked. See the comments above.
How does that taste when you lick their boots?
Do you use you own spit for that really high gloss shine or theirs?
Take a hike Dan Love. Next time there will be 20,000.
(applause)
I have missed on a few of these lately (including a complete mispost to the wrong person on a wrong thread), but can I get some lightning here? (Check posting history and other Freepers complaints about its jackboot supporting trolling for verification.) Thanks.
It appears to be similar to PDS (Palin Derangement Syndrome), but Khaleesi Sarah is a lot hotter than Putin, and she's more relevant to us American conservatives.
Maybe Miltie just likes pictures of Putin with his shirt off. Who can say?
People think when cattle are removed from rangeland the wildlife flourishes. That is totally false, wildlife depend on water provided to cattle to survive, cattle have been there long enough to become a big part of that eco-system and issues other than water come into play (example, turtles eating cattle dung) when they are removed the wildlife does not flourish, instead much of the wildlife must relocate or die. When large areas are cleared of cattle relocation of wildlife becomes more and more difficult.
Oops you already ZOTTED the puke. Thanks!
First do you have a source for that other than rumor/hearsay? If they did say that, what was the context? Having firearms and being prepared to use them are both legal by the way.
That's what I'm trying to figure out. Maybe someone can find a copy of the contract, like that for the Helicopter Cowboys.
Investigate Cattlegate! This needs some daylight shown on it - and the media will not do it. We the People must force this into the light of day, and that means political action. But who will start the ball rolling? So far, they are all hiding in the weeds.
Well, if it isn’t getting mentioned, it should be, 24/7 if need be, till the fed and their lefty sheeple get it through their thick skulls that governing against the consent of the governed can get real dangerous for Barney Fife bureaucrats, especially when the “governed” are Constitutionally weaponized.
I need some nice blow-ups of “Mr. Love” striding along with his punk-ass beard and backward ball cap to use at the range. Nothing like making it personal to improve your accuracy.
There's a number of different types of "ranges" in Nev. I suspect you were reffering to the Open Range rather than a number of ranges that are closed to the public, for (actual) good reason.
Those FED thugs couldn’t WAIT to kill some Americans. I guarantee they wanted to pull that trigger. I remember the disgusting photos and video of the FED thugs high fiving after KILLING the people in the Branch Davidian center. It was only at the point where they knew they would be fired upon by a superior force and caught on film in the modern day age of internet video they stood down. Why would they shut down the cell towers??? To prevent instant upload of videos of these thugs shooting Americans. Why did they ship in thugs from out of state? Because they don’t want these thugs to go home to the same city in which they live with blood on their hands.
Scary stuff.
“Other than that, Im sick of your trolling for the fascist feds.
bye”
That’s a wondrous thing to watch in action.
