Nevada Congressman: Bundy Militia Needs to Leave Because They’re Making Residents Nervous
PJ Tattler ^ | 4/25/14 | Bridget Johnson

A freshman Nevada congressman said the militiamen need to leave the area around Cliven Bundy’s cattle ranch because they’re scaring kids trying to walk to school.

Rep. Steve Horsford (D-Nev.), who represents the recently created 4th District of central Nevada, told MSNBC that he spent Thursday in Mesquite, “meeting with residents who actually live in Bunkerville, who are neighbors of Cliven Bundy, who live in the Moapa Valley community.”

“And they, like myself, are extremely frustrated by the fact that we have these armed militia in our community, the fact that children in Bunkerville, which is a community of only about 1,200, 1,300 people cannot walk around the corner to their school without armed militia on the hills of our community, that they can’t go to church on Sunday without armed militia being in or around the church because Cliven Bundy is there and the armed militia are there,” he said.

“And his comments today do not reflect our community. They don’t reflect the majority views of Nevadans or the Western way of life and the way that most of us feel. They are racist. His comments were racist. They are infused with bigotry and hatred. And they belong in the dustbin of history,” added the first person of color to represent Nevada in Congress.

“He profiled the African-American community, and it’s so ironic and hypocritical because he says that people don’t understand his way of life, but yet he would profile and make judgments about another community’s way of life. He’s wrong. He’s racist. And we need to have the armed militia leave our communities.”

It would appear that we have become two nations attempting to occupy the same space. I fear this will not end well.

I would think they would feel safer with the militias there. The real threat are the BLM goons. And this guy is a dem, so he is obviously lying.

Next phase of demonization. How long will it be before the facilitators of tyranny start accusing Bundy and his defenders of child abuse or operating meth labs?

And yet federal snipers, full autos and armored cars don’t make them nervous? Fools!

Just more output from the propaganda machine.

Now back to the topic at hand. Should one agency control territory the size of western Europe?

Should that agency have its own armed force? Should it collect debts at the point of a gun?

Should its armed agents be gunning down drifters on the side of the road? (as recently occurred)

Should an agency whose job it is to lease land to ranchers be running those ranchers out of business? Should they be euthanizing tortoises and using those same tortoises as an excuse for putting ranchers out of business? Do you believe that cattle are a threat to turtles?

Should they be acting as agents for a corrupt senator and his corrupt sons who are handing ranch land over to the Chinese for their purposes?

Let’s not forget bestiality. That’s why they had to shoot the cattle to protect them after all.

Honest people going to church feel uncomfortable around Clive Bundy, who is a racist. The racist Clive Bundy’s militia should go home. History has passed by the racist views of the racist Clive Bundy.

Hmm. I think I’m beginning to detect a code.

Bunkerville is on the northern portion of Gold Butte.

Representative Horsford has introduced legislation to establish Gold Butte as a National Conservation Area.

Horsford’s bill mirrors Reid’s Gold Butte National Conservation Area Act.

Horford is full of it.

No Sir! It’s the corruption you visit on American citizens when acting on behalf of your family members in their search for wealth that makes people nervous and crazy. GET INDICTED SOON!

FINALLY! someone getting back to the topic at hand! Its only been a week since we’ve lost track of what the real topics are about. This is what conservatives do...gain traction with a winning topic of government overreach and abuse then BAM! someone invariably says hello Mr. Foot meet Mr. Mouth...true message lost and ammo for statist liberals
