From
near and wide, armed men are trickling toward Cliven Bundy’s ranch,
where the rancher’s fight with the federal government has become a
rallying cry for militia groups across the United States.
From near and wide, armed men are trickling toward Cliven Bundy’s ranch, where the rancher’s fight with the federal government has become a rallying cry for militia groups across the United States.
On
Wednesday, that dispute teetered at the edge of deadly conflict, when
Cliven Bundy’s family members and supporters scuffled with rangers from
the Bureau of Land Management sent to protect the federal roundup of
Bundy’s cattle on public land.
One of Bundy’s seven sons was
shot with a stun gun, and Bundy’s sister was knocked to the ground; but
no one was seriously hurt, and no arrests were made.
Sen.
Dean Heller of Nevada said he told new U.S. Bureau of Land Management
chief Neil Kornze in Washington, D.C., that law-abiding Nevadans
shouldn't be penalized by an "overreaching" agency.
