A lot is going on in this story. Feds are impeding this mans ability to produce. They are trampling on states rights. All this to save a tortoise.

    I think that is why they sent so many security personnel. They probably thought they would scare off any supporters.

    No doubt. We don't need more Wacos or Ruby ridges... The MSM will probably go right along with, and propagate militia mania...

    No he is not okay with that! He wants the fed to claim the other 24 percent:-) Oops CC strikes again.

    If everyone would take just 5 mins to send a message to their own sheriff asking them to send their support as did this sheriff to the Clark County sheriff, it might make a difference.

    Here is what I sent to my sheriff just a few moments ago.

    Sheriff _____: I write to you to ask you to send your support to the Sheriff of Clark County, Nevada who is facing a federal government, in the form of the Bureau of Land Management, attack on a long time resident of the county.

    If you have not been following the issue, the Bundy family has been ranching in Nevada for over a hundred years and grazing their cattle on "public lands" for all that time. They have been in a fight with the federal government for twenty years which now has resulted in the BLM confiscating their property.

    All the while, the local county sheriff has allowed county roads to be shut down, a state freeway in the county to be shut down, and federal personnel with no legal law enforcement authority (neither federally nor certainly in the county) to perform law enforcement activities.

    I implore you to contact Sheriff Douglas C. Gillespie at phone number 702-828-3394 or email pio@lvmpd.com and voice your support for him in standing up for one of his citizens against an overreaching federal government.

    Here is a blog from a Sheriff in Beaver, Utah calling out the Sheriff of Clark County. He knows what a Sheriff's job is:


    Dear Sheriff,

    As a 22 year law enforcement officer and current sheriff, I write to you today with disappointment in your failure to be involved in the BLM cattle round up within your county. I was so happy with your decision last year and you using your authority to put a stop to this unlawful activity. This year you have chosen to give in and let these federal bullies walk all over you and your citizens. How could you ever allow this agency to close down a county road? These BLM agents have NO law enforcement authority in your county. I just read that the arrest of Bundys son took place by 11 BLM agents on a state highway. How can you not do anything about this? You swore an oath to protect and defend and I'm asking you to do that. How much more are the citizens of Clark County going to have to take from these federal clowns! They shoot an unarmed man last month, conduct a cattle seizure to the tune of over $2 million dollars of tax payer money, close down a county road and are making unlawful arrests with no jurisdictional authority! It's time to take a stand and shut these yahoos down.

    I talked to someone today who pays attention and they have not heard about it. Guarantees the lemmings know nothing.
