AFTERSHOCK: BLM Destroyed Water Tanks, Shot Bundy Bulls, Ran Over Tortoise Dens

So let me see if I can get this straight.

The BLM, which is charging grazing fees in part to protect an endangered tortoise, and which also plans to euthanize the very tortoises they are charging ranchers fees to protect, ran over the dens of the tortoises that they are simultaneously protecting and euthanizing?

Is that correct?

So what was the purpose of shooting the bulls?

Shouldn’t PETA or the ASPCA or the ALF or inmates from some other activist asylum be marching and chanting at the BLM’s offices right about now?

@Bill #4 –

…but we tend to forget that the left has no principled reasons for their outrage. They only protest what is politically beneficial.

Bill ‘we’ don’t forget…

…which is why we need someone with the guts to stick a finger in their faces and point this out to these stupid liberals…every time they start whining about nonsense when we ‘know’ it is for political benefit of which all of it is….in the end…

When you have range cattle in wild open country, they become more feral than domestic. Bulls are never safe, but when you are trying to gather up range cattle with cowboys of dubious abilities and moral backgrounds, some bulls will be extremely dangerous. It is far easier to shoot them than having them disrupt the proceedings. This was entirely predictable; in fact, while I was working in the area and was told about the gathering by contract using non local cowboys, ( no local cowboys signed up for the very lucrative money, but traitors are always around), I said to my customers and friends, “They will shoot most of the bulls.”

I doubt that they will get better hands in the future, real cowboys don’t participate in this immoral type of work for a few pieces of silver.

You realize that these men went there with the expectation that they might take a bullet from Obama and Reid’s henchmen.

If you want to see a real manly specimen, go to you tube and look at the BLM goon from Portland who threw the middle aged woman to the ground like an NFL linebacker throws down a runner. That is the type of cowardly Obama thugs they will send to your house if you speak out against the regime or get behind in your health care extortion.

Yea, take a good look and think about what you will do when they come for your business and possessions. These people are taking a stand against Obama’s tyranny, you better pay attention, so you will have the backbone to stand up against these thugs when they come for you.

Cliven Bundy is a tax evader. What he doesn’t pay, other law abiding citizens have to. The man is freeloading. He’s been doing so for decades.

It is not unusual for ranchers to get behind on payments, especially during the Obama economy. The only businesses that thrive are the result of being at the trough for Obama money, like those on Wall Street.

Are you that familiar with the situation?

Do people have an opportunity to air their grievances or do we accept Obama’s edicts as the supreme decision?

If you are in financial trouble, can he come in and confiscate your business, your home, your tools, your bank accounts?

Perhaps this is the template for those of us that can’t afford our Obama Care extortion money. You better be a damn good Democrat if you can’t afford your extortion money.

@Greg: They refused his money for years and have litigated against him numerous times. He is the last of the Mohicans and the Reids are getting ready for the fun in the sun boondoggle. Desert tortoises- my sweet behind.

Oh yea that young agent from Portland who is so tough with women is more than welcome to step in the ring or octagon with me. His life is going to be hell after proving what a tough guy he is. I am more than ready.

@Greg:

Cliven Bundy is a tax evader.

In other words he’s earned a Medal of Freedom.

What he doesn’t pay, other law abiding citizens have to. The man is freeloading.

This of course is incorrect. He’s not at all freeloading, since the fruits of his labor belongs to him alone, not to government, nor to lazy socialists such as yourself who cry for a piece of his pie.

Rather, it’s government and lazy socialist activists who are the freeloaders, who parasitically demand the fruit of other people’s labor without doing anything productive themselves.

@Bill:

Perhaps the liberals should stand aside and let us taxpayers decide who is allowed to get by without paying taxes and who owes. I think that would be much more equitable.

According to the Collective’s arbitrary Social Justice guidelines, anyone who has wealth that they want to use for their bizarre social experimentation ought to pay taxes. But as Social Justice dictates, those who mete out this social justice need not pay taxes.

Remember, hypocrisy is the foundation of all leftist thought.

Yes, owing taxes is a way to advance to the upper levels of the Obama Administration. Like turbo Tax Geithner was the only man capable of handling a job so tough, only a tax cheat could possibly understand the Obama economic plan. Clive Bundy is probably expecting a cabinet level position.

If he had the protesters say they were OWS, the BLM and snipers would have been pulled back immediately, but they were just everyday ranchers, “Shoot to kill!”.

In the Obama Republic, the right to protest is reserved for Obama Loyalists, drug addicts, and rapists.

Retire, #12, that is a very disturbing story. It’s hard to predict your response, especially if you are aware of your rights as a citizen, being second class rights to an illegal alien. Many of us refuse to regard the BLM as a police department with the right to arrest and detain. Some of us have the where withal to resist, but resisting several armed men who have no police powers that I know of is akin to a combat situation.

There has been blood and there will be more blood flowing before the public accepts the idea of BLM agents as Obama storm troopers who have the right to indiscriminately kill Americans who don’t submit.

Did BLM Bury Bundy Cattle In Mass Grave?

So where’s all the animal rights freaks anyway?

@retire05: Our president has dressed them like storm troopers and has given them weapons, and soon, I expect to see Obama’s IRS goons in fatigues and carrying weapons. If they stop you on the street and you keep on walking. They will have the power to shoot you down like a mad dog, but perhaps you have refused to pay your affordable health care payments because you had a downturn in business or maybe you lost business or maybe cattle prices were down. According to Obama and his goons, you have no more rights. His goons can surround your house and shoot your raggedy ass because you are behind on your extortion payments.

Welcome to the Obama’s People’s Republic of America. If I were a Texan, I’d be campaigning to secede. America has a good chance of electing Hillary, the one who did a thesis on the Communist Alinsky and worshipped him as a hero. A country that elects another Communist might as well accept and promote itself as a Communist country, it might eliminate a few enemies, and it will make the Progressive Communists who have been living in drag much happier. Our new Obama thugs from the BLM can really throw their weight around and the up and coming bureaucracies can get rid of those neckties and wear their fatigues with a sidearm. Obama Stormtroopers will be the new heroes, do what Obama wants or get your ass kicked.

Harry Reid took to the Senate floor and called these ranchers (all of them, not just the Bundy’s) ”domestic terrorists.”

THE BLM THUGS destroy the land they ran over the tortoises burough, destroying it,
they separate the mother and baby calves, they broke the water lines
they destroy the places where the rancher gathered the cattle,
and kill cattles and two prize bulls,
and they freaken left after,
they would diserve to have their ass full of bullet,
this worth more money than what they want to collect,
THEY ARE THE TERRORIST AND SHOULD BE ARRESTED, FOR INVADING THE GOOD PEOPLE TO
GET MONEY FROM THEM,
THEY DESTROYED OTHER CATTLE RANCH WHO WHERE SO OFTEN HARASS, THEY LEFT THEIR RANCH,
BUT THIS ONE IS THE LAST ONE WHO WAS IN THEIR WAY TO GET THEIR DEAL WITH CHINA
DONE,
AND IT FAIL, THAT REID IS HAVING A FIT WITH HIS SON, YELLING TERRORIST ON GOOD FAMILY
OF AMERICANS,

@Greg:

Cliven Bundy is a tax evader. What he doesn’t pay, other law abiding citizens have to. The man is freeloading. He’s been doing so for decades.

Where is your proof that Bundy is a tax evader? Have you seen his Federal income taxes and the quarterly tax filings of his ranching business? Or are you just showing everyone (yet again) what an ignorant ass you are. According to the Federal Government and SCOTUS fees and fines are not taxes.

Reid claimed that Bundy viewed the United States as a “foreign government,” while accusing his supporters of goading violence.

“There were hundreds, hundreds of people from around the country that came there,” Reid said. “They had sniper rifles in the freeway. They had weapons, automatic weapons. They had children lined up. They wanted to make sure they got hurt first … What if others tried the same thing?”

Despite Reid’s characterization of Bundy supporters as “domestic terrorists,” the only violence metered out during the dispute was when BLM agents tasered and assaulted Bundy supporters during an incident on April 9.

No matter where you stand on the Bundy issue, Reid’s characterization of American protesters as “domestic terrorists” is chilling and a massive backlash is almost certain to follow.

It also fits the narrative that the federal government has been pushing for years through literature such as the MIAC report, which framed Ron Paul supporters, libertarians, people who display bumper stickers, people who own gold, or even people who fly a U.S. flag, as potential terrorists. In 2012, a Homeland Security study was leaked which characterized Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority,” and “reverent of individual liberty” as “extreme right-wing” terrorists.

Reid attracted controversy earlier this week when he promised that the BLM’s fight with Bundy was “not over”. The Nevada Senator was hit with accusations of cronyism after his former staffer Neil Kornze was confirmed as the new BLM director earlier this month.

Reid is obviously angry after his complicity in the siege against the Bundy family was exposed and became a viral story. Although many news outlets claimed this issue was “debunked,” Reid’s involvement in a solar farm just 35 miles from Bundy’s ranch is documented. Archived files which were deleted from the BLM’s own website confirm that confiscating Bundy’s cattle was necessary in order to clear the way for lucrative solar deals with transnational corporations.

I haven’t heard a single news report verifying that the protesters were armed with “automatic weapons”. No doubt this is because Harry Reid (like most leftists,) doesn’t know the difference between an automatic weapon and a semiautomatic weapon. From as far as I could see, it was only the SWAT teams who were armed with automatic weapons. Or perhaps in Harry Reid’s rants the “domestic terrorists,” he was referring to was the BLM, their snipers, and their SWAT teams. But I seriously doubt it.
