LAS VEGAS -- Local rancher Cliven Bundy may have his cattle back, but his supporters say they are still preparing for an imminent threat.

Militia groups from all over the country say they are flocking to the Bundy ranch to protect the family from a feared federal government raid.

The Bureau of Land Management allowed Bundy to release his cattle Saturday, after they felt threatened.

Bundy now has a whole contingent of armed guards surrounding him 24 hours a day.

"They're just there, trying to make sure something crazy doesn't happen to him," Bundy's son Ammon Bundy said.

His security detail and family feel he is someone to be protected because of what the federal government could do.

That thread’s got background on it. Photos of the Sheriff with Holder and Reid. Sheriff Gillespie is member of Southern Poverty Law Center and Chair of DHS Finance Committee for NV. Photos of Gillespie at DHS meeting with Harry Reid and one with Holder and Reid.

No doubt why Cliven Bundy refused to meet privately with him. He knows a snake when he sees one.

Cliven Bundy, the last remaining rancher in Clark County, Nev., stands at the center of what has become a national controversy over the private use of federal land. He is focused on one big issue, he said in a radio interview with Glenn Beck on Monday: He doesn’t believe the land belongs to the federal government.

“I think this is very clarifying to people,” Beck said. “Your stance is, ‘I do not recognize these lands to be federal … I am staking out my claim that the United States government does not have any jurisdiction, and any rights to the land that [I am] now grazing on.’”

“That’s right,” Bundy said. “It’s Nevada land.”

> In my lifetime, the Federal Government has always been an opposition, but never a threat to kill people for simply standing up to them.

Until now....

And to think YOUR tax $$$’s helped fund the buying up of APCs, tanks, and drones, assault rifles, and the new robotic toys they are going to deploy against citizens who won’t hand over their guns, cattle, or Obamacare funds for a plan that doesn’t pay anything until the 14k deductibe has been met.

Isn’t America grand with the socialist emporer in charge?

Strange Rush made no mention of the events that transpired over the past several days. Why didn’t he mention this on his show today?

Some days I think Rush is just doesn’t have the heart to do that show anymore.

For a militia to be effective there needs to be training curriculum that is disciplined, organized, and standardized that matches or exceeds that of the opposing force if it is to succeed. It would require funding to operate and volunteer manpower by the well experienced and trained wih ranks and divisions set up for different duties.

Watch out for government infiltrators and spies.

It works both ways.

I have a bad feeling about all of this...
Especially bad feeling now that the regime wants to give illegals citizenship if they will enlist in the military and train to kill natural born citizens.

> It’s basically been quiet since then. The one thing going for the people is the internet. Can you imagine how Ruby Ridge and Waco would have turned out if they had the internet.

I’m pretty sure they are looking at ways to interrupt communications of patriots / conservative types online or mislead them by spreading disinformation. It may be part of the reason they said they were transferring ownership of the Internet to Russia. It gives them the perfect excuse if they are really partners with them and have them disrupt communications. They can say, hey its out of our hands and we can’t do anything about it. Sort of like plausible deniability.

” - - - For whatever reason the govt is just not able to walk away from this. - - - “

Obama pledged to “Fundamentally transform the United States of America.”

Obama has perfected the arrogant manner of the tyrant that he needs to be to crush the financial strength of America, and thanks to doormat Republicans such as Boehner and McConnell, Obama has won every battle with them.

Obama will “fundamentally transform” anyone in America who gets in his way,- - - - especially those who work the land for a living.

Rancher Bundy is one of the last Cattle Ranchers in his county in Nevada.

The combined brute force of the Federal Bureaus, Courts, Senate, and Administration have for the last 5 years so far crushed all in their way, and Rancher Bundy will be no exception, unless - - - you know, - - - we all know - - - .

I have a difficult time understanding how any individual would hang out with someone who couldn't figure out how to cut a gun barrel themselves.

More than simple barrel-cutting; as difficult as it is reputed to be, how did the "backward" Afghani tribesmen of decades past manage to cut rifling into their copies of the venerable Lee-Enfield rifles?

> There’s got to be infiltration. People show up and just mix with the larger crowds. CIA, ATF, FBI, they’re all undercover.

They will usually be the quiet type to lay low and be lone wolfish but there can be exceptions. I’ve been one of those guys. I can spot them in the crowds usually. To beat this the groups need to know each other and be registered with a unique identification system and ID that needs to be carried at special events with gatekeepers and security forces that are present but hidden until needed.

Sorry, but wrong, mate. The US government removed the automatically-a-citizen part of the military service contract sometime around the Carter years. Now it is on your own time, and on your own time, and the military JAG will provide absolutely no assistance whatsoever.

I just saw that sceane last week - my daughter (16!) and a friend were spending an overnight and two days watching a bounch of old vcr’s on the portable tv with the built-in vcr. I made them pause it and was ranting how “This is EXACTLY what is going on down on Bundy’s ranch, and blah, blah. blah.”

“Um, Dad. Whose ranch?”
