Why One Man Traveled Almost 3,000 Miles To Take On The Federal Government At A Ranch In Nevada

Days after agents with the Bureau of Land Management ended their effort to round up Cliven Bundy's cattle to ease mounting tensions, the showdown between the rancher and the federal government is still attracting armed conservative activists from around the country to a dusty stretch of land about 80 miles east of the Vegas Strip. 

Last Tuesday, as he started to read more and more about the situation on The Drudge Report, Jerry DeLemus decided to give Bundy a call.

They spent more than an hour on the phone. "What do you need?" said DeLemus, who was calling from some 2,700 miles away in Dover, N.H. 

"I need help," Bundy told him. "I need bodies."

"I'm coming," DeLemus said.

What is visible on the ground and what is visible by court orders obscures the essence of what is going on behind the scenes. There are many aspects/’questions’ as to the Fed actions and intentions.
1) Why was the Bundy’s operations the last of so called enforcement seizures or even clampdowns?
2) Why wasn’t a public notice given as to any intended conveyance of use?
3) Who was responsible for the tortoise excuse when there were already dead and living under BLM control?
4) Since the land as claimed belongs to the Feds i.e. people of the USA(?) why wasn’t this a public notice?
5) Why does the Federal government use/need jackbooted to intimidate ordinary USA citizens?
6) Are all the parties to the Fed action and interest being exposed? and for what purposes?
There are so many more questions that need to be addressed before an impartial jury of/for the People’s satisfaction’ This is not Harry Reid’s, nor his son, nor any other lackey’s property to be take from an established land user and turned over to another group for whatever Reid and his lackeys decide fit their plans and wallets. I wouldn’t count on human beings as justices to be above not being scoundrels.

At Waco and Ruby Ridge the Feds could put in their shift and go back to the motel. They could keep their focus forward. They had no worries, America was at their back.

Things have changed. These BLM troops were lucky to make it out of there alive. They had America at their back.

Sadly is just may well be. Or maybe the next Shot Heard around the world.
The thing is that Bundy isn’t a leader of a kook religion. He is a rancher who is getting screwed at the behest of crooked Politicians and a Fed Government that is clearly out of control. He is your average Joe who is trying to do right by his family.
The incident at Waco was clearly a staged attack by a BATF that wanted to make headlines and keep their budget high. The Bundy incident is staged to line the pocket of just one man and his whole crooked family. One man, Harry Reid, has the power to take land and order up armed troops to attack one rancher. Never in a million years did any American think this was ever possible.
This could end in bloodshed. the Obama regime is looking for one thing to declare the 2nd Amendment null and void. After guns are out of the way, then every freedom we enjoy will fall like dominos.

Education is a slooooooow process, especially when you are dealing with people who think they know it all.
