Because they have been disappearing as this unfolds.

Cagey doesn’t begin to cover it, but close enough for the Englishlanguage.
We’re just a bunch of Joe everydays analyzing this stuff which in a “professional data analysis” outfit would have at least two full teams thrown at it.
And look what posters here have accomplished with no budget and group discussion?

Cursory glance at what you found, four teams pouring over it.
I might revise that estimate upward.
Yikes.

How much you want to bet there is yet another connection in there that would have come to light?
/ that’s a sucker bet, of course there’s more.

Bet they found out that the guy does have some rights to graze and the money they say he owes is a lot of cr**. The family has been there for 140 years.

But I do like that they're calling it a range war....cuz that's what it is.

A tortoise vs cattle?? Ridiculous.

I'm with Darksheare in that I'm not a big supporter of Jones simply because of his 9/11 crap. I am a former flight attendant. I worked for one of the airlines involved. I encountered those people in the months before and after the attacks. I heard and experienced other things that did not get revealed in the media. It was not a government conspiracy and those buildings were not taken down with charges.

I find his stuff interesting and a lot of times he gets it right... but I just can't get past the Truther stuff.

“I guess I’m the only one who thinks the feds won. The state governor chickened out. The sheriff chickened out. They abused protesters. They used attack dogs. They confiscated cattle. They left at a time and place of their choosing.

And they lost?”

Yes. The Feds lost bigtime. They were there, with guns, and now they are gone, because the other side was armed also and called their bluff. This is the precedent for all future confrontations, armed local militia willing to stand up against the Feds and and make sure the standoff is in front of cameras for all to see.

I love this man Cliven Bundy and his brave son Ammon. No more perfect example of what the men of this country with women at their sides should be. Real men and real women. Real Americans.

Check this post out from yesterday afternoon. 0bama wants to move Neil Kornze up from Deputy Director to the head of BLM. The poster believes that Kornze was only just confirmed in his first job as DD in March '13.

I’m not a big supporter either. Give credit were credit is due though, like this time when he has his people on scene and reporting that which the MSM won’t. I’m glad he sent Knight and didn’t go himself. Knight is an excellent reporter and way easier to listen to. ;)

Amen to that!

One guy who really needs props in all this is Pete Santilli. If he hadn't caught that dramatic video, this would have never turned out the way it did. He also filmed Ammon Bundy's speech this morning, and that of his uncle, and it was quite powerful. http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/46061848 (Move the timer to about 19:45 to see the start of Ammon's speech.) And http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/46062778 (Part 2 of Ammon, followed by his uncle.)

It serves as a reminder of how important our internet access is.

I hate working third shift.
It kills your brain.
I’ve seen “Garrick Gold” somewhere before.

In connection with mine tailing prospecting for rare earth minerals?
*ugh!*
Don’t remember.

Kornze was just named head of the BLM on April 8. He was a Director or deputy Director before that. The bottom line is this guy has never, ever worked in ranching, logging, fishing, farming, or any other industry involving natural resources, and yet he spent 8 years as Reid’s “senior policy advisor on natural resources.” He’s another academic punk who has spent his entire career outside of college in government. And he came really close to getting people killed here.

I was going to tell you it is Barrick Gold Mining (huge!). But see that you figured that out!

“And he came really close to getting people killed here.”

But the college boy did manage to kill 138 head of cattle. Not bad for a few days worth of work. I hope that someone brings cruelty of animals charges up on them. Somewhere I read where some guy killed a pig and got five years. 138 cattle should be life then.

Yes.
But I don’t know if I recall the correct context.
And my recollection would only be relevant if there were defunct mines somewhere in the area.

So I’m filing it in the back of my head for now.
