Interesting.
Glad to see people take a stand when the government takes more and more away from them. - The comments under the first article are quite interesting as well.
The peaceful protesters combined with the Oath Keepers made the difference. Had it of been just the protesters, it would have gone sour. Had it of been just the Oath Keepers, the talks would have taken too long, and too much damage done in the meantime. (Cows dying, yaddayadda).
The OATH KEEPERS rock. They are a group of sherriff's, vets, police officers, retired and still active, teaching and upholding the constitution. The sherriff of every county is THE constitutional defender. The sherriff of Clark County wasn't educated enough to know what to do, so Sherriff Mack's Calvary rode to the rescue.

The rancher paid the BLM, until the BLM turned ugly and began regulating ranchers out of business. (!There used to be 53 ranches there. Bundy is the LAST RANCHER STANDING). Free range, grass fed cattle, for the consumer. This alone is worth fighting for.
Look at the big picture. Our food sources are being regulated out of existence, &/or sabotaged by the EPA (extreme Iclei EPA, not the good guys EPA).
Cattle in Nevada (etc). (Protect the tortoise and kill the cows)
Food groves in Calif. (Protect the minnows and dehydrate the state)
Timber harvest in Calif (protect the Spotted Owl and put towns after towns on unemployment)
Ground hogs, cute birdies, butterflies, lizards, froggies, you name it, there's an extreme EPA to get bleeding hearts to believe they need protection. The tortoises in Nevada? It's said that the EPA BLM euthanized thousands of them because they couldn't afford to feed them. What the hail do you feed a tortoise? Why are they spending millions to euthanize turtles, hire snipers and mercenaries, hire cowboys and helicopters, ... see, a question per question.
Im im just happy that now talks can begin and that Sherriff's ears and eyes are being opened as they should. Write your Sherriff and ask them to join the Oath Keepers. And CSPOA.org. (Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association)
