BUNDY RANGE WAR (PRESS RELEASE FROM CLIVEN BUNDY)


Apr. 25, 2014, Grabien.com

We are trading one form of slavery for another.

What I am saying is that all we Americans are trading one form of slavery for another. All of us are in some measure slaves of the federal government. Through their oppressive tactics of telling the ranchers how many cows they can have on their land, and making that number too low to support a ranch, the BLM has driven every rancher in Clark County off the land, except me. The IRS keeps the people of America in fear, and makes us all work about a third or a half of the year before we have earned enough to pay their taxes. This is nothing but slavery from January through May. The NSA spies on us and collects our private phone calls and emails. And the government dole which many people in America are on, and have been for much of their lives, is dehumanizing and degrading. It takes away incentive to work and self respect. Eventually a person on the dole becomes a ward of the government, because his only source of income is a dole from the government. Once the government has you in that position, you are its slave.

I am trying to keep Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream alive. He was praying for the day when he and his people would be free, and he could say I’m free, free at last, thank God I’m free at last! But all of us here America, no matter our race, are having our freedom eroded and destroyed by the federal government because of its heavy handed tactics. The BLM, the IRS, the NSA--all of the federal agencies are destroying our freedom. I am standing up against their bad and unconstitutional laws, just like Rosa Parks did when she refused to sit in the back of the bus. She started a revolution in America, the civil rights movement, which freed the black people from much of the oppression they were suffering. I'm saying Martin Luther King's dream was not that Rosa could take her rightful seat in the front of the bus, but his dream was that she could take any seat on the bus and I would be honored to sit beside her. I am doing the same thing Rosa Parks did--I am standing up against bad laws which dehumanize us and destroy our freedom. Just like the Minutemen at Lexington and Concord, we are saying no to an oppressive government which considers us to be slaves rather than free men.

I invite all people in America to join in our peaceful revolution to regain our freedom. That is how America was started, and we need to keep that tradition alive.

Cliven D. Bundy

  1. When I read his original statements I saw nothing but truth and history. Rev. Jesse Peterson has made similar comments to wake up the black welfare community. He has only stated what so many Black conservatives have stated but of course the lib left, who despise Conservatives no matter what the color, have proven over and over it's not about race but ideology.

  2. Money is power. The Federal government has a money monopoly.

    The seeds to Federal power were planted in the 1884 SCOTUS decision to grant Congress a money monopoly. Founder of Annapolis & former Secretary of the Navy George Bancroft predicted "catastrophe".. "the more overwhelming the day of wrath puts off its' coming" http://www.constitution.org/gb/gb-plea.htm The lone dissenting judge, Stephen Fields asks; And why should there be any restraint upon unlimited appropriations by the government for all imaginary schemes of public improvement, if the printing-press can furnish the money that is needed for them?" http://johnwilkenson.com/files/Juilliard%20dissent.pdf

    Our Federal government is too-big-to-fail. The BLM has unlimited resources to pursue its' "Necessary & Proper" claims. The Supreme Court decision exchanged individual sovereignty for State sovereignty on the premises that our Federal government should have "powers belonging to sovereignty in other civilized nations"....

    As George Bancroft's beautiful essay states; "The honest illusions of many men must be dispelled; and their minds, ransomed from error, will discern the truth. Paper money is a corruption of the blood. Or paper money is the dry rot, which silently and unseen consumes the beams and joists which support the house and its floors."

    Our Federal government is playing by a different set of rules. Cliven Bundy has to 'show a profit'. The BLM is backed by a 'printing-press'. It's unsustainable!!!!
