In the Nevada desert, Bundy family warns of another standoff

In the Nevada desert, Bundy family warns of another standoff
By Kevin Sullivan and Juliet Eilperin November 1 at 7:49 PM

BUNKERVILLE, Nev. — Less than a week after being acquitted for his role in last winter’s armed occupation of an Oregon federal wildlife refuge, Nevada rancher Ryan Bundy said another protest action will be justified if President Obama goes ahead with plans to create a huge national monument abutting the Bundy family’s ranch here.

“Absolutely! That’s the best thing in the world for [people] to do,” Bundy said Monday in a telephone interview from an Oregon jail, where he is being held pending a February trial related to a separate armed standoff in 2014 with federal agents at his family’s ranch.

Thanks to them, I no longer feel safe and secure enough to go camping and off-roading on Nevada public lands like I used to.
