The Meaning of Nevada

It was reported by Fox News that the federal government may have killed several bulls and cows belonging to Cliven Bundy and buried them in a mass grave because they wandered on to "federal" land. If this is proved to be true, Mr. Bundy just may have a claim against the Bureau of Land Management, the Department of Homeland Security, the President of the United States and sleazy, slimy, allegedly crooked Senator Harry Reid.

Greta Van Sustern had an interesting piece for about two minutes on Tuesday night, On The Record.

This whole circumstance is demonstrating to us all what happens when the government tries to rule the governed. It is not a welcoming sight, is it?

For months, I along with other constitutionalists have warned the populace that this administration is slowly stripping us of our rights, and this is the latest in the abuses of government foisted on us: Fast and Furious, NSA, IRS and now, BLM. 

The Bundy family has tried to do the right thing by paying the State of Nevada the grazing fees which are owed, but the State has turned down the money because the land is "managed" by the federal government. I think the State is actually afraid of Harry Reid and his family. 

By the way, how did Harry Reid have the authority to "negotiate" a deal with the People's Republic to sell us and install solar panels in Nevada, Utah and California? What or who gives a sitting U.S. Senator that right? Who is he to say that this fight is not over? Who does he control?

Finally, with the way the troops and attack dogs showed up over the last week and weekend, it looked like it was a war zone. Or the south in the 1960s. Too bad the government didn't have as much resolve in Benghazi to protect four loyal Americans as it does to protect tortoises. The values of this administration are all flummoxed. 

As I read in another commentary this week by former Congressional Candidate Steven Foley, the First Amendment GUARANTEES the entire country as a free speech area. How dare the BLM or other government agency put up yellow caution tape to keep demonstrators out of an area of the country when there is no danger to the demonstrators or anyone for that matter? 

Or was there?

It is time for this issue to be truly diffused. Based on Reid's comments, it is a long way from being done. The President and the Attorney General spent the weekend race-baiting rather than standing up for the right of so many to exercise their right of free speech. What does that tell you?

The longer Obama, Holder and Reid remain in positions of power, the more we will see our rights visibly be stripped away. 

Come November, we all need to remember the significance of this standoff in Nevada as the government bullied the Bundy’s and their supporters. If the Senate remains under the control of Reid and Obama, who knows how many more of our rights will be stripped away.

If they have control come January, we are all Bundy’s.
