Is The Bundy Ranch - The Next Lexinton or Concord?

It sure looks like the powder keg may be about to blow in Nevada at or near the Bundy ranch. The Bundy family, true Americans it seems, are under siege by the federal government which is acting like they are hunting down a major terrorist group or at least public enemy number one. And over what - cattle grazing rights and the rights of ranchers to keep down the cost of feeding their cattle on free range (an American concept for centuries) and thus to keep down the costs of what we eat. The government is trying to control the cattle ranching business and if you do not know what word best describes such a government practice with regard to controlling businesses - it is fascism. (No, this is not a comparison to the Nazis, I am just labeling the government by what it practices and it sure seems to be fascism.)

The Bundys are getting a lot of support from folks coming from far and wide. That includes militia groups from various states, individuals and the press. This event could well become the beginning of a revolution if the current asshole in chief decides to handle it like Ruby Ridge or Waco and my bet is they are doing that already. The big difference is that no one, or at least very few, in the public at large views the Bundys as kooks like many saw the branch Davidians and no one is looking at them like criminals as they did the Weavers at Ruby Ridge. I guess the lies on the part of the government were all to obvious, after the fact, relative to those other two events and still fresh enough in the peoples' memories than for the government to be able to hoodwink any of us again. It seems an awful lot of folks see this as just more of the same old governmental heavy handed tactics with the only difference being that instead of Clinton doing it, it is being done y the current liar in chief - Obummer. 

The thing that seemingly remains constant between all three of these events is that the government agencies, under an administration run by extreme leftists, is acting like a bunch of tyrants' puppets and bringing it to an unnecessary and ill advised head. The big difference is that the people appear sick of it and are herding to the defense of the ranchers in an effort to protect both them, our heritage and our rights.

This truly could be the start of the fundamental change Obummer never expected, change based on hopes he never had nor ever will have or understand - those of our freedom, our liberties, our rights and the fact that the government is made up of our servants and not the other way around.

One last thing, the timing on this could not be worse for the Obummer Administration and it boggles the mind they would start something like this at this particular time of the year. Is it because they are ignorant of our history or just so arrogant as to challenge the people of America with it. I wonder. Well, they need to work out an end to this soon, one that is amenable to all, what with April 19th looming on the near horizon. For if they don't - there may be a new shot heard round the world, 239 years after the first one.

Don't Tread On Me!

All the best,
Glenn B

This is from where Bill grew up. The Bundy's married into many local families and when we see those on horses we are standing with them, as they were our neighbors, friends, and family as well.
