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.

*sigh* I was a Vietnam era teenager. We were a lot more engaged.
I’d bet that if Bundy had continued paying the grazing fees they would still be after his ranch and trying to run him off. They have run everyone else off.
If Bundy payed all the back fees now it probably would make zero difference.
What would be a real hoot is if Putin stepped up and payed those back fees...lol In the interest of peace and all.
The press would have a field day with such a story. The coverage would make Obama look like a total ass for sending goons with machine guns to collect fees for cows eating grass out in the middle of nowhere.
The more someone ponders the stupidity of a riot squad outfitted to look like special forces charging forth to collect fees for cow grazing the sillier the whole US looks.
Foreigners must think we are all lunatics. Maybe we are?? We elected these fools. or did we!?
Don’t do that now, they might mistake your hand for a gun and shoot you, unless you have a dog.
I hope his water heater doesn’t explode and destroy his house. That happens when water heaters are hit by a hellfire missile fired from a drone.
Made their "legacy".
Now they need to be disbanded.
Good information for those who don’t know the full story, thanks!
Disagree. You’ll need cells and compartmentalizations. And plan for highly asymmetrical action.
True dat.
Some have said Pete Santilla is an FBI informant, shows up at all these types of uprisings. But that could be dis-information too...no doubt they all need to be careful. Heck they’re even on the social networks hiding out, they have “teams” of people to scout and put out stuff that isn’t true.
He never stopped paying the grazing fees.....The BLM refused to take it and told him he’d have to send it to the Government...that he refused to do.

Posting too fast.
That small group of cows is similar to our small herd here.
We only have 60 acres or so and it’s about the limit for the land.
We have freezers full of very tasty beef! YUM.
Fresh eggs from free range chickens and meat from grass fed beef. No hogs though...they are just too stinky :-)
It’s real work taking care of the very few cows we have..I can’t imaging having 900 head..whew
I want to get some goats, I really like goats. Can’t abide sheep though.
Right because that buys you some time while they shoot your dog.
You're not alone FRiend.
