Cliven Bundy has been battling the federal government since 1993 to graze his cattle on public land. Now, with the arrest of his son and confiscation of 234 of his cattle, Bundy, joined by protesters, face down 200 armed federal agents.
“I have raised cattle on that land, which is public land for the people of Clark County, all my life. Why I raise cattle there and why I can raise cattle there is because I have preemptive rights,” Bundy asserts.
Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval has called federal actions ‘intimidation’ and especially blasts the fact that the feds have set up a “First Amendment Zone”, where federal officials have tried to corral people protesting within a certain area, all other areas are “First Amendment Free.”
“Wake up America,” Bailey Bundy Logue told KSL-TV. “Look what our ancestors fought for and we need to stand up for that. We need to realize what’s happening. They are taking everything away from us. This isn’t only about one family. This is about everyone’s family. This is martial law and it’s in America and so what are you going to do to have it stay out of America?”
Reports now coming in from the Guerilla Media Network: The cattle are dying and being slaughtered and buried in the desert by federal Agents… The protesters tried to stop a convoy of trucks and backhoes coming off of the PRIVATE land owned by the Bundy’s, so they could be inspected by a sheriff … The agents then started tazing the protesters and throwing women to the ground … Video will be up soon ….
We the people need to make it a point to inform those people out there that are refusing to wake up and see what is happening to our country. It seems that Congress is waiting on November to hoping to take over with new people, but I am not sure we have until then. If Obama is afraid of losing his power and control over Washington he is going to make his move before then to completely overturn the US. We are in real trouble people. Wake Up America.

“Preemptive rights” directly relate to corporate and SEC laws and the right of shareholders to purchase proportionate additional stock prior to it being offered to the public. In no way, shape or form does it relate to public/government land. In this case, folks are using public land owned by the Federal government, with the claim that it is for the use of the people which reside in the county where the land is located, and are making a claim to their proportionate share of this property, then converting that proportionate share to their own use. Folks are lucky Federal government has not demanded payment for use of land and profits. Seriously, if this were acceptable and lawful then everyone would be using Federal land to store boats, raise cattle, maybe even build a house. Folks have been at odds with Feds since 1993, Feds may have waived its right to the land, but probably not because there are so many immunities and laws, etc.
We the people own the federal gov we own them we pay them that is the peoples land their stealing his cattle thieves
Where are their warrants? They are acting with brute force and someone has to stop them.
Does the word “Socialism” come to mind? Carry On!
