Cliven Bundy's son arrested yet again

Source: Salt Lake Tribune

Ryan Bundy, son of Nevada rancher-cum-anti-government militia icon Cliven Bundy, was arrested after an alleged dispute with Iron County sheriff's deputies Tuesday in Cedar City.

Ryan Bundy, 42, who has recorded addresses both in Cedar City and in Bunkerville, Nev., was at the Iron County Justice Court on Tuesday for an arraignment on a trespassing case. While Bundy was at the courthouse, deputies approached him to serve an arrest warrant on a separate misdemeanor charge of interfering with an animal control officer.

"When told about the warrant, Mr. Bundy both verbally and physically resisted the deputies' attempts to take him into custody," deputies wrote in a press statement. "Deputies were able to overcome his resistance and arrested Mr. Bundy."

... In addition to the pending cases associated with Tuesday's arrest, Bundy in 2012 pleaded guilty in abeyance to a misdemeanor theft charge in Iron County's Fifth District Court; was convicted by an Iron County Justice Court judge in 2011 of misdemeanor vehicle violations; pleaded no contest in 2008 to a misdemeanor charge of interfering with arrest; and pleaded guilty to burning without a permit in 2006.

when an American is of the privileged class - meaning, White - and confronts and resists police officers, and gets away with it unscathed.
