WND Censors Ex-Sheriff's Plan To Use Women As Human Shields In Ranch Standoff
Topic: WorldNetDaily
WorldNetDaily is moving quickly on the Bundy Ranch standoff, from supporting lawbreakers and militia thugs to promoting bogus conspiracy theories. Now it's taking the next logical step: hiding unflattering information about those it's lionizing.
An unbylined April 14 WND article champions Richard Mack -- identified only as "executive director of the Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association" but who is also a member of the extremist group Oath Keepers -- and his claim that "his sources inside the federal government warn that Washingtons weekend retreat in a dispute over grazing land in Nevada was only a move to distract attention and diffuse tensions, because a raid on the familys ranch still is planned."
WND doesn't mention that not only did Mack join other militia thugs in escalating the standoff between rancher Cliven Bundy and federal officials over Bundy's decades of violations of grazing laws, he planned a rather heinous plan should the standoff escalate: use women as human shields for the militia thugs.
As the Blaze documents, Mack told Fox News: "We were actually strategizing to put all the women up at the front. If they are going to start shooting, its going to be women that are going to be televised all across the world getting shot by these rogue federal officers."

(5,455 posts)while that doesn't make it right, it remains quite a bit different from those who force women to do such things or worse.

(9,478 posts)he would put women and children around the buildings to stop the bombings. By some accounts, he did. That should tell you what a class act this Richard Mack guy is. I wonder if there are a bunch of right wing media sites who have quotes online calling Saddam Hussein evil and despicable for threatening to use women and children as shields? I'd like to see a few of those quotes turned around and used on Richard Mack.
