Video: Feds Use Attack Dogs And Tasers Against Protesters Trying To Protect Nevada Cattle Ranch
YouTube ^ | 4/10/2014

Posted on 04/10/2014 11:05:03 AM PDT by Lazamataz

Read more on this story here. The Bureau of Land Management has been taking Cliven Bundy’s cattle, claiming that he is improperly grazing them on federal land. Yet Bundy and his family have been grazing them on the same land since the 1880s, long before the creation of the Bureau of Land Management came into existence. Bundy’s son was thrown to the ground and arrested when he stood on a public road to take pictures of what the government was doing.

As the video above shows, the tension got even greater after the federal agents showed up with backhoes and clashed with protesters questioning the action. Agents tased one man repeatedly, allegedly hit people with slow moving vehicles and at least one woman was thrown or knocked to the ground at around :30.

I think Bundy is in the wrong and should remove his cattle himself or pay the grazing fees.

That said, WHY in the hell does the federal government (or its agent) think it's a worthy cause to use such force against a rancher and his 900 cattle but NOT against 12 million (and counting) illegal aliens who are ALSO trespassing on land that doesn't freeping belong to them?

It’s all over Fox News. Dana Loech says Bundy has paid some fees the fees to “Nevada county”. The optics don’t look good for the Feds. Protesters, tasers, and daags.

I would opine that Obama’s secret bank account gets a large deposit, Reid gets his cut, and a good chunk goes into the DNC Treasury.

Pay the rent went you use land you don’t own! Why should the expect to not get evicted for not paying rent??

You are missing the point. The snipers are just a wee bit over the top don't you think?

If you don’t think saying ‘this is my land, you must enter into a contract and pay a fee to graze on it’ is asserting a claim to ownership of property, then we’ll have to respectfully agree to disagree.

As you said, the 1993 change capped Bundy’s herd at 150 cattle on the Bunkeville allotment. That made Bundy’s approved usage of the land much less valuable, but not “worthless to him.” The 1998 ‘no-graze’ declaration made the land worthless to him.

"That made Bundy’s approved usage of the land much less valuable, but not “worthless to him.”"

if one has 5x cows on a property and the gub'ment sez now you are only allowed 1x cows you must now put the other 4x cows someplace else. Now understand this is open land so let us say you can put the cows on property next to the range in question. Cows wander because its open land so the gub'ment can claim you broke the rules you now have 1.01X cows on the land when bessie wandered over an imaginary property line etc.

However if the you put the 4x cows on another piece of land that is not adjacent then you now must split your efforts to maintain the cows at two different areas. Which increases your costs and time/effort. Which in essence makes the property worthless.

This was a calculated move by the Gub'ment to defraud the rancher and get him off the land. It was not a move to help the rancher in his business. The tortoises have coexisted with those cows since the late 1800s on that same property. The gub'ment will use such BS as the "endangered species laws" to bolster their claims in the name of saving the planet. But if that is their claim why are they selling fracking and drilling rights to the properties in question?

It's one big pile of BS and the gub'ment is using every trick in the book to hide their deception.

Don't fall for it!

“I’m pretty sure that in 1998 the government stopped asking for rent”

First, you know that when I said they stopped asking for rent, it was a reference to the fact that land was no longer available for grazing. That should have been obvious to you. See, because if they don't let you use it, they're obviously not asking for rent. That was in response to your repeated statement that it was solely about rent. And when I say repeated, I mean repeated!

Here's a reference for you in case you still are not sure that endangered species have been used to change how that land can be used:
