Remember Cliven Bundy? "Eeeeee's BACK!"



Cliven Bundy Defends Border Militias, Tells Feds to Point Guns At 'Enemy' Immigrants

Submitted by Miranda Blue on Tuesday, 7/8/2014 2:24 pm

If the anti-immigrant protests in Murietta, California, and the gathering of militia groups at the border remind you of the anti-government standoff at Cliven Bundy’s ranch, that might be because the events are attracting some of the very same people. Far-right radio host Pete Santilli, who we last saw harassing a Mexican-American reporter at Bundy’s ranch, has been broadcasting from Murietta for the past week or so and has mentioned that he has also driven down to join some groups along the southern border, who he has been working with in an effort to shut down the Tijuana border crossing. In fact, yesterday, Santilli interviewed Bundy himself about the similarities between the Bundy ranch standoff and the events in Murietta and at the border. Calling the Bureau of Land Management “dirty rotten buggers,” Bundy told Santilli that the groups who faced off with the BLM at his ranch were “successful in bringing back freedom to America, at least in this area.” Speaking of the militia groups gathering at the southern border — including groups like the Oath Keepers and the Three Percenters, who were strongly represented at his ranch — Bundy said that like at his ranch, federal agents are “pointing their guns at we the people” and not at the “enemy,” who he said is the “encroacher that’s illegally coming in here.”

That is one of the funniest scenes with Q.

(That and the one where he turns Dr Crusher into a dog.)

3. And he'd probably have no problems shooting a 10-year old running away from him in the back.

He strikes me as being the type of "rancher" who would hire illegals to run the herds during the summer across the range, then shoot them when it was time to pay them to save money. Finding dead young illegals who have been shot up in the hills after cows and sheep have been brought back down for the fall/winter has been on the increase. Primarily in the "Red" areas of California, Idaho, Nevada, and Oregon - areas full of those patriotic survivalists and isolated multi-generational homesteader family farms and ranches. People who are happily selfish, ignorant and hateful because there is usually no one else around to call them out on the shit they can pull if they want to.

Doesn't that give them the right to live in it by his own theory?
