+pillowbugg Get the bugs out of your ears , it seems your not hearing very well. From the founding of this nation many have died for standing for freedom and many more well die ! Freedom is not free , there is always those who want to rule over others, just like we have in the white house now.
+Lisa Loves yes, freedom isn't free...but you folks refuse to read the constitution...especially the PROPERTY CLAUSE. Article 4 section 3 clause 2 so, now that we have established that the federal govt CAN own land...it appears Bundy was acting ILLEGALLY. do you support criminals?
+pillowbugg Yes the federal government can own land. They can own Ten miles square for the seat of Government "Washington DC" and Territories such as "Puerto-Rico". Nevada is no longer a Territory and the Federal Government was to "Dispose of" the lands to that state and the moment of "Statehood". Any State admitted into the Union was to enter on the same "Equal Footing" as the original 13 states/colonies. Have you ever been informed of the "Equal Footing Doctrine"? Are you arguing that the Federal Government should claim ownership of 90% of the land in Virginia as it does in Nevada? or should the feds dispose of the land to Nevada as it did to Virginia when it was admitted into the Union as a "State"?
+pillowbugg Wikipedia: The Equal footing doctrine, also known equality of the states, is the principle in United States constitutional law that all states admitted to the Union under the Constitutionsince 1796 enter on equal footing with the states already in the Union at that time.[1]Beginning with the admission of Tennessee in 1796, Congress has included in each state's act of admission a clause providing that it enters the Union "on an equal footing with the original States in all respects whatever".
I am so sorry for your pain, Mr. Bundy. My heart is with you and admire your strength and commitment. I hope for your sons safe return to you and their families.
I would love to have this man as a father. Cliven. I'm sure your family must be so proud of you. I know I am. Our government should be ashamed of what they are doing.
People are still under the delusion there country is not run by a mafia whose distroyed it on purpose. Our men better get way smarter quicker or we are just like Europe. The top and the bottom live off our men. You think they treat them better.
+Sam Spade There is no money in farming. Never has been. You've been eating out of their pockets for 70 years. Now that govt is running farming we will soon be in famine. I bet we are within 4 months of mass food shortage. You won't eat unless you already have your ticket in hand for the underground survival city's. What food that is not poisoned or radioactive will go underground to the elite. Everyone else can eat poisoned or radioactive food at the death camps. When the elite wanted to kill off the people under nazi Germany they made some mistakes. They learned from those mistakes. This time there will be no mistakes.
+julia paralina What he said was that he bets that there is only 4 months of food in reserve, and he may be right. UN Agenda21/2030 states that there is a plan to bring the world population to no more than 500 million people! The UN published that book and had it where you could order it on their website, I saw one when I attended a TEA Party meeting, so I went to the UN's Website and downloaded a pdf version of it. It is now broadcast world wide over the Internet. They also claim they will take up all privately owned property and turn it into Green Zones where humans will not be allowed to go.
Francois21st msm believer troll..........your not American .......your about to loose everything............you should have stood with these true American ranchers.............China owns every inch of America............minerals, resources. Land Debt Is about to be reclaimed...............FEMA death camps coming to you...........all American (human resource) to be "liquidated" "vaporised "
Cliven, thanks for exposing the welfare ranching system so well. How can we thank you enough for your willingness to expose your criminal enterprise!? You have truly started the ending of welfare ranching. Thank the Lord for the Divine guidance he provided which got you out of your fort so you could be arrested without violence. You set a high bar for the other welfare ranchers to follow. But your Koolaid powerful and true patriots express their gratitude for your submission to the rule-of-law.
Sam Spade Sam it is written do not take pleasure in another mans hardship. It will come down on you. Just what welfare are you referring to exactly. The welfare Harry Reid has. That gave the Reid Corporation land right next to the Bundy's with out a Bill of Sale. Or Hillary Clinton's move that gave Russia 20% of our Uranium. Which just happens to equal out to the Uranium, on the Hammond Ranch, Finicum Ranch, and Bundy Ranch. Remarkable how that works. And in turn, Uranium One contributes to the Clinton Foundation. A Canadian Company working the deal for Hillary to give uranium to Russia. Those are the people who belong in Jail. and you are a piece of dung for not knowing that and blaming the victims rather than the guilty.
He is exactly correct. The fed has no rule over man but the constitution doesn't control contracts. So they get you via contracts. Drivers license, social security, etc... It's a big learning curve for most people but it's the true. Think about it. If you sign any contract and say you are a us citizen that also makes you different than one of the "people". The Feds control the privileges of us citizens. Look up Karl Lentz, he's tough to understand but has practice applications you can hear.
WAKE UP SHEEPLE. Pull your collective heads out of your Super Bowl commercials do something for a change. American soldiers blood is on your hands for not rallying around these hero's who do something and stand up. As a vet, I salute these men and their families. ALL LIVES MATTER!!!!!!!.
Obviously there was no FULL DISCLOSURE when these contracts were signed and under their own UCC laws which the Federal Government (as a corporation) adheres to, these contracts are all nul & void. If there had been full disclosure at the time of signing not one of these ranchers would have signed on the dotted line!!
Elizabeth says, After watching and learning from Lavoy, no challenge should've been made, it was unconstitutional, no contracts ever should've been signed and didn't need disclosure because they were illegal. The blm had no standing, but only a few knew that. It takes all the citizens to know what is constitutional. All. Then the people can stand, instead of 2 or 3 litle ranchers. In these days of biden/covid, etc. all the people are standing, so we don't ever again get stood on, like lavoy and bundy were stood on.
In-a-LEIN-able rights not inalienable rights. Your Constitutional rights cannot be surrendered or bought or sold or given away or have a LEIN against them.
10 sq miles, forts & Ports approved by the State and that is all ! Everything else they have taken is against the law and they should be held accountable, but by whom ??? The only thing the American people need to fear, is the Federal Government of these United States !!!
Article 4 section 3 clause 2 is talking about territory not states. Just to clear that up. The constitution is not written in mandarin Chinese people. It's pretty plain
+J.P. Jensen ...and military bases , post offices, major throughways, and 10 square miles known as Distric of Columbia. Congress can dictate whatever is done with that, nothing else. Article IV doesn't contradict article I. Some trolls +pillowbugg don't even know what a dictionary is. Bundy is right.
+Pedro Bossio Actually Military bases are leased from the states too. All Democracies fall when the leadership become bleedership and parasites off the people in any way they can. They use Lawyers to write laws that have no real validity using British legalese to usurp our rights from us. If Americans truly understood that the Original Thirteenth Amendment is still legally in force. The original 13th stated no person of royal title can serve in the American government. All BAR certified lawyers are Esquires and that is a Royal Title which makes them dual citizens with Britain. The majority of the US Government are Esquires.
+Pedro Bossio The trolls know their days are numbered now, and that their free ride is over with!! They can't stand to see a real American speak out in his own country it drives them bonkers!!
+pillowbugg Article 4, Section 3, Clause 2: The Congress shall have power to dispose of and make all needful Rules and Regulations respecting the Territory or other Property belonging to the United States; and nothing in this Constitution shall be so construed as to Prejudice any Claims of the United States, or of any particular State. You would have valid argument had Cliven Bundy been grazing in the "Territory of Puerto-Rico" or the Nevada "Territory". When Nevada became a State, at that moment, it ceased to be a Territory and congress was to "Dispose" of the land to the "State". The other Property you that you may be referring to in "Article 4" is further defined in Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17, and it is forts and ports and other needful buildings for the military and commerce. Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17: To exercise exclusive Legislation in all Cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten Miles square) as may, by Cession of Particular States, and the Acceptance of Congress, become the Seat of the Government of the United States, and to exercise like Authority over all Places purchased by the Consent of the Legislature of the State in which the Same shall be, for the Erection of Forts, Magazines, Arsenals, dock-Yards, and other needful Buildings;

Lets introduce a crimes of the father law.. So if a politician causes monetary loss or loss of life to an American citizen . That or those politicians will be held responsible. And they will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law.. If said politician/ politicians should expired after guilt has been confirmed. His/her Families will be held responsible and prosecuted to the full extent of the law.. That should help take care of government sponsored terrorism on it's own people and the world.
When beef is scarce and very costly when it is found just remember how important American cattlemen are! No ranches = imported meats! No farms = imported foods! Both are being ran out just like our factories were. Prices will rise. This nation will fall! We have become weak, scared people. We are not a free people any longer. Look at the number of laws in this country. Look at the number of inmates! People must stand for what this nation was founded on or let it fall. Whee are the "militias" when it matters? Everyone's afraid to stand.
+James Mullins sure dummy the nation will fall because a racist Mormon deadbeat rancher won't pay his grazing fees...and convinced another self entitled egoist Mormon to die for it......grow the fuck up
You must be blind to the situation they fight. There are police chiefs, mayors, congressmen, and many more fighting the same issues. Read the constitution. Learn instead of following the ignorant.
Cliven Bundy is lying about his rights. "I've lived my lifetime here. My forefathers have been up and down the Virgin Valley here ever since 1877. All these rights that I claim, have been created through pre-emptive rights and beneficial use of the forage and the water and the access and range improvements," Bundy said. Clark County property records show Cliven Bundy's parents moved from Bundyville, Arizona and bought the 160 acre ranch in 1948 from Raoul and Ruth Leavitt. Water rights were transferred too, but only to the ranch, not the federally managed land surrounding it. Court records show Bundy family cattle didn't start grazing on that land until 1954. The Bureau of Land Management was created 1946, the same year Cliven was born. "My rights are before the BLM even existed, but my rights are created by beneficial use. Beneficial use means we created the forage and the water from the time the very first pioneers come here," Bundy said. "My rights are before the BLM even existed." Only true if you are VERY bad at math. This fight has been raging for 20 years, and the entire time Bundy has claimed that his family has been utilizing that land since 1877. That is a lie. Whether you agree with his position or not, the fact that he fudged his family history in order to create a certain western frontier mythology, should have people stepping back and reevaluating his motives.
So let's see what came out of all this... This guy has been arrested with numerous federal charges and will likely never see his ranch again... several of his sons have also been arrested... a man dies by suicide by cop... dozens of others have been hit with federal charges... the wildlife refuge is a mess and locals' economy is being affected by the illegal occupation... Meanwhile, federal land is still federal land... Hammonds are still in prison... the constitution still doesn't mean what these guys want it to mean... Seems like this didn't go as well as they had planned.
It comes down to money..millionaire ranchers want the land,to make money. Even though the land is not deeded to them.. at the same time, me,you or anyone else, couldn't go buy cows,and graze them on public lands. So why should the rancher's be able to profit from public lands ?
anastasia2657 As a property owner, I know a lot about property rights. Try me. As to being "a product of (my) own generation," you seem to be of some mistaken impression that the Constitution changes from generation to generation. It doesn't. Bundy would have been wrong 229 years ago, just as he is wrong today.
Article II sec. 2 allows the federal government to enter into treaties. Article VI makes treaties the supreme law of the land. The land that the Bundys' cattle were trespassing on was acquired by the federal government by a treaty with Mexico. Article IV sec. 3 gives congress the power to regulate territory owned by the federal government. That is how the BLM is in fact constitutional. See also Kleppe v. New Mexico. With regards to article 1 sec. 8 clause 17, it in no way limits the amount of land that the federal government can own. It tells how the federal government can acquire land and extinguish stste law on the land. The land the Bundys' cattle were trespassing on still has state law applying so clause 17 is irrelevant.
I don't know why he's talking about his land and the Constitution when the Constitution was written all that land belong to Mexico and we just decided that we would take it just because we wanted it i think they got a hell of a lot more to b**** about then he dose
So, at the funeral of a friend, who threw his life away for no reason, he decides to speak about his own interests and prerogative? This man is pathologically narcissistic and he raised his children to be the same. It's good to know he'll die in prison and his sons will spend most of their lives there. One less uneducated, racist and selfish welfare rancher is a good thing.
