Fox News/Conservative Hero - The Knuckle-Dragging Rancher - Goes On Racist Tirade...

Mr. Bundy recalled driving past a public-housing project in North Las Vegas, "and in front of that government house the door was usually open and the older people and the kids -- and there is always at least a half a dozen people sitting on the porch -- they didn't have nothing to do. They didn't have nothing for their kids to do. They didn't have nothing for their young girls to do.

   "And because they were basically on government subsidy, so now what do they do?" he asked. "They abort their young children, they put their young men in jail, because they never learned how to pick cotton. And I've often wondered, are they better off as slaves, picking cotton and having a family life and doing things, or are they better off under government subsidy? They didn't get no more freedom. They got less freedom."

His bodyguard of 6 years, black dude, said he's not the least bit racist and he would take a bullet for him. I think I'll go with his opinion over those of Bobby Sak and his ilk

Wow you're dumb.

I mean, I could not have scripted a better story than this one.  All the flies flocked to this moron and were rallying around him and his repression by the big bad liberal government that wanted to take his legacy and redistribute his wealth and he goes off on this disgustingly racist rant, and then doubles down on it when given the chance to retract.  

And now, in his name, a bunch of redneck idiots are taking their ATVs on lands that are off limits to motorized vehicles while armed just daring the feds to stop them.  

Time to take these douchebags out.

Take them out!?!  That is a little extreme don't you think?  I am not saying that the Feds won't kill some of these guys, but I hope they don't.  This isn't worth any loss of life.

Oh Jesus shut up.  I didn't mean kill them.







A couple broken legs might be nice though.

LAS VEGAS - A federal judge Wednesday declared a mistrial in the prosecution of Nevada cattleman Cliven Bundy, his two sons and a co-defendant, citing the government's "willful'' failure to turn over multiple documents that could help the defense fight conspiracy and assault charges in the 2014 Bunkerville standoff.

Prosecutors had belittled Ryan Bundy's pretrial motion for information on the "mysterious'' devices outside the family ranch in 2014 as "fantastical'' and a "fishing expedition,'' the judge noted. The government willfully withheld a March 28, 2014, law enforcement operation order and an FBI report that showed there was an FBI camera trained on the Bundy home for surveillance.

The FBI's SWAT team put the camera up, repaired it and monitored a live feed from it. The U.S. Attorney's Office was aware of this, the judge said, and didn't share information about the camera until the defense heard a witness confirm its presence.

"The government falsely represented the camera that was on the Bundy house was incidental, not purposeful,'' the judge said.

The judge also found prosecutors withheld a March 3, 2015, FBI report that identified a Bureau of Land Management agent in tactical gear and carrying an AR-15 rifle outside the family ranch on April 5 and April 6, 2014.

In addition, she cited an FBI log with entries that said "snipers were inserted'' and on standby outside the Bundy home. Three entries in the log mentioned snipers present, Navarro noted. Prosecutors claimed they were unaware of the log at first because it was kept on a thumb drive in a tactical vehicle.

"The government is still responsible for information from the investigating agency. The FBI chose not to disclose it,'' Navarro said.

That, coupled with "the government's strong insistence at prior trials that there were no snipers,'' convinced her the withholding of the sniper evidence was done knowingly.
