Of course, CNN doctored the video of Bundy, apparently trying to show him as a racist when he wasn't.
The hoax has since been revealed, but the liberals, true to form, keep forwarding the lie as hard and fast as they can... joined by the usual liars and smear artists in this thread. The truth doesn't suit their agenda, so they shun it.
See the real, original video here, along with CNN's carefully doctored version:
He still comes off as a complete racist in the full version. Christ on a bike, he didn't even make it 30 seconds before he called them colored people.
Bundy is 80 years old, and was raised in the 50s, when blacks were always referred to as "colored people". There was nothing racist about it back then - no different from calling them "black people". (In fact, "colored people" is more accurate, isn't it? It merely refers to the color of the skin, which while irrelevant, is brown, not black). Today's PC addicts are terrified of ANY word they haven't thoroughly cleansed and approved, so now "colored people" is ridiculously smeared as "racist" while the worse phrase "black people" is just dandy.
If Cliven Bundy were the least bit racist, he could have used the most common perjorative of them all, the N-word. Then CNN wouldn't have had to go to the effort to dictor his video. But he never touched it. So they went to Plan B instead and tried to alter what he said, and smear him.

IMO....it is better for whites and black to live in their own groups and not talk about each other at.

BB you entirely missed the point if you thought i thought he was running for office...
Also some one who thinks all blacks would be better off as slaves is a racist as far as i'm concerned.

racism
1. a belief or doctrine that inherent differences among the various human races determine cultural or individual achievement, usually involving the idea that one's own race is superior and has the right to rule others.
2. a policy, system of government, etc., based upon or fostering such a doctrine; discrimination.
3. hatred or intolerance of another race or other races.
This has been in litigation for 20 years. He lost every appeal. It sounds to me like the government gave this leech every chance possible. At what point does it end?
Typical. I asked what the proper response should be, and you can't seem to answer that.

The worst term used on black people by white people was what LBJ used as often as he could in public, "nigrew".
I wonder why it never got popularized.
It really grated on me for the sham term that it was.
This was LBJ's term for dark skinned people living in the United States.
Must have been running an unpopular war, or something.
Of course, CNN doctored the video of Bundy, apparently trying to show him as a racist when he wasn't. And it's working. Even conservatives who have seen only CNN's version, are blasting the guy. And if I had seen only what CNN carefully showed, I'd be blasting him too.
But in the full video, Bundy talks for several minutes about how black people were hard workers, decent people with strong families, etc. Even back in the slave days, when they were making useful contributions despite the horrible oppression they were enduring ("picking cotton"), they showed fine qualities and had nothing to be ashamed of. Bundy said the same was true for Mexican people, too.
But today, when the government is giving them tons of free stuff in the guise of "helping" them, Bundy said you can find black people sitting around doing nothing, winding up in jail, etc. - a major contrast to when they had to fight for their own interests under dreadful conditions and displayed stellar character.
CNN cut off the first part and showed only the second, in an apparent attempt to pretend Cliven Bundy was a racist when he clearly wasn't. It was a typical liberal response for which CNN has perfected the technique: If you can't refute what a man is saying, doctor it and try to smear him personally, instead.
