"Cliven Bundy is not a hero...he is a freeloader, plain and simple."

Salt Lake City Tribune LTTE that puts it all very well, though I would add that Bundy is also a deadbeat and a criminal and his armed supporters really are domestic terrorists.

Letter: Bundy is a freeloader
First Published Apr 19 2014 07:07 pm • Last Updated Apr 19 2014 07:07 pm

Cliven Bundy is not a hero. He’s not a patriot or a freedom fighter, either. He is a freeloader, plain and simple.

The people who are supporting him and calling him a hero are either stupid or just ideologically impaired. Cliven Bundy has been grazing his cattle for free for 20 years while other ranchers have paid their fees. They are not freeloaders. Cliven Bundy is a freeloader. The BLM has given him innumerable opportunities to comply with the law. He has refused on every occasion.

Cliven Bundy’s ranch and cattle should be seized and auctioned off to pay the fees he owes us. It is our land, public land. It isn’t Bundy land, it belongs to the people of the United States, and Cliven Bundy has been stealing from us for 20 years.

We're killing suspected terrorists in Yemen without due process, so when do we start killing our own here at home?
