BLM versus Bundy [View all]

I haven't chimed in at all on this as I have been traveling for work for a few weeks and then was down and out sick with a stomach bug. I just read about 6 different reports on this.

My biggest problem with this whole thing is that the right wing nut job gun-toting militia people are now emboldened. This guy Bundy owes more than $1 million in grazing fees on federal land but has decided to not pay it. It isn't because he doesn't recognize the government as he claims, it's because he's a cheap right-wing fucker who's looking for some free stuff. I'd love to know if he gets any kind of federal subsidies on his cattle. Wouldn't that be a hoot.

Now the Kochs and Alex Jones are loving the "WIN" as much as the camo-wearing rim jobbers living in mommy's basement. So now what? I say send in a drone and kill the fucker's cattle. No cows...no fees. Problem solved. What will they do shoot the drone?

I'm sure I'll start a battle of the threads but this story seems insane to me. If I decide to just not pay my federal taxes I go to jail. If I decide to throw a big party in a federal park without a permit...I go to jail. If I decide to pitch a tent alongside a federal highway...they come take me away. Same rules apply to this fool.
