They are going to massacre a lot of farmers, men, women and perhaps children. I believe this is the match that lights the fire in America. It's been coming to this for a long time.

I bet the indians wished they had been able to make a stand, but it's too late for them. For many American's it's now or never, and this is as good a place to pledge our honor and sacred freedom in defense of our God given rights.

You guys seem to be ignoring that his family had a contract with the county since 1800's, which is technically still valid. All he's doing is upholding it, and telling the FEDS to suck it for trying to change it on him once they found out they weren't somehow making money off of it. So yeah, you can call him a moocher, but there IS a principled and ethical foundation behind his stance.
But I'll admit, it's pretty easy to "fight for freedom" when it saves you $1M...
Glenn asked him to clarify since in the Nevada State Constitution that land Bundy’s cattle are grazing on was given over to the federal government.
Essentially, Bundy is saying this conflict isn’t inherently about grazing fees or water rights, but that he ultimately does not recognize the lands to be federal and the United States government or the BLM do not have jurisdiction on the land.
“So I think this is very clarifying to people,” Glenn said.
“It’s not BLM land. It’s Nevada land,” Bundy said.
“That is a different point of view than everybody else that is a rancher that I know,” Glenn said.
Based on the conversation on the radio show, Bundy’s fundamental issue isn’t with an out of control government taking control of his personal land, but that he disagrees with how that land became federal land when Nevada was founded in 1864.

Well, of course the BLM didn't give up. They simply took time to regroup. I would think any logical person could predict this action. They *CAN'T* let the people win. If the people, the citizenry here win, well there would be upstarts all over the nation tomorrow. The government's only gambit in this game would be to stomp the resistance and stomp it hard so no one else gets any ideas about standing up for any of our so-called rights. (Where's the gosh darn flame thrower icon when you need it?)

I guess it's put up or shut up time for those that keep threatening revolution. I doubt it. i doubt most of the gun waivers don't have the stones.

The sad part is...noone else even bothered to notice the video wasn't new and this thread progressed for four pages using false information from jump street.
It wasn't actually false info. This is the best information we can get for now and at this point it's just speculation and bits of info which may or may not be accurate, since therels not a lot of coverage. Harry Reid himself said it wasn't over, so take it for what that's worth.
Or they could have been on their way in. They could have been for the arrested protesters. Like I said, it's speculation and small pieces of info. Your speculation isn't any better than anyone else's. Youtube is not the most reliable source, but still worth looking at.
Those vehicles could have been on their way. They could have been for the government hired ranchers out there. They could have been for personnel or their families.
It's pretty obvious where your opinion comes from and why you're here.
They could have been to make sure that a bunch of red neck retards with Wally World AR-15's didn't start a revolution. typical ATS style...it's either aliens or FEMA camps
We won't forget anything. I'll be keeping an eye on this as are many others, I would assume.
There is literally nothing new in the last 24 hours besides Reids obtuse statement. The Feds are gone, they aren't coming back. They will handle this with the IRS and courts. Nice and quiet and the public will forget this all happened in a week.
Have a link to back that up?
The governor of Nevada has no power to stop the Federal Authorities under Article 2 section 1, yet people are still yammering on about how he should have stopped it. He can't.
Same goes for the sheriffs and state police. They don't have the authority to go against a Federal Court Order, and yet people are still yammering on about how the sheriff should step in. He can't.
Looks like a disinformant.

The American people need to unite for change, but it will not be accomplished through violence.
