1) There were no "gun running" charges involved at Ruby Ridge
2) Weaver never fired at anyone, let alone federal agents. A guest of his did, after the same agents, while trespassing on the property, shot a dog and, oh yes, a 14 year old child in the back, killing both. To this day it's not clear, but there is evidence indicating the one wounded officer was shot by a fellow officer.
3) Federal agents murdered a woman holding a baby. She was unarmed, and no one was threatening any federal agents at the time.
Federal agents were never brought to justice for the 2 murders they committed there. Not even manslaughter charges.
Oh, and in addition, Bill Gore, the FBI agent who ran that fiasco, pled the 5th during the investigation. That right there tells me all those government assassins were a bunch of lying sacks of ****.
“It’s because of Harry Reid and the Chinese Solar Farm Deal” & The “Why The Bundy Ranch – What You’re Not Being Told” Video
Ignoring the 20 years of illegal cattle grazing and the numerous court battles that Bundy lost, conspiracy theorists have made the argument that this is somehow in connection with a 2012 proposal for ENN Energy Group, to build a $5 billion solar farm and panel manufacturing plant in Nevada. The problem with this “connection” is that Laughlin (where the solar farm was going to be built) resides about 180 miles south of the Golden Butte area where the point of contention lies.
There is at least one video (Why The Bundy Ranch – What You’re Not Being Told) falsely claiming that solar farm was to be built where the Bundy Ranch. The video cites this Reuters article (which actually states that the solar farm was to be built in Laughlin, NV–of course, the video provides no link to the actual article).
It’s unlikely that Harry Reid is pulling strings to get ranchers off federal lands so that a Chinese Solar Farm can be built 170 or so miles away!
There is some reason why the government made up bogus excuses for getting the ranchers off the land. Hopefully someone digs up those reasons.
There is some reason little of this makes sense. The Federal government owns the land but yet the county government can just vote to sell it for a fraction of it's value? Something isn't right there. If the Federal government owns it, how does the county government sell it? If the county government owns it why should he be paying the Federal government?
So, those who support Bundy are "Domestic Terrorists" per Harry Reid? This is laughable. Harry Reid is nothing but a political bully. I don't doubt that the reason he continually spouts really bizarre and stupid stuff is to get those he targets to react and respond in like fashion so he can come back and say, "See, I told everybody those people were a bunch of dangerous crackpots." Harry Reid is a little man with a "little man" complex. I would not be surprised if he makes comments like this to try to further rile people up in an attempt to cause a violent confrontation between American citizens and members of the Civilian National Security Force.
One particular poster in this thread continually repeats, "We'll, when are you going to start shooting police and military members?" Stop being a putz. Nobody has said they want to go out and start shooting cops or soldiers. People are saying they getting real sick and tire of an oppressive bullying government that is becoming a Police State.
Well, I support Bundys stand against the government so I guess I am a Domestic Terrorist.
