How Did I Just KNOW That This Numnut Was Mormon?
And several minutes later the second American Revolution ended with a group of hillbillies being struck with a drone or three. Idiots. All because he didn't want to pay his grazing fees on federal land for DECADES. All because he doesn't like the government and how they stole his FREEDOM. Give me a break. He is so lucky the President is Obama or he and his little gang of 'revolutionaries' would be dust.
The issue Republicans and armed militias are rallying to defend is Mormon rancher, Clive Bundy, who refused to pay grazing fees for 20 years and ignored multiple court orders to remove his animals from federal land where his grazing rights were revoked. Bundy claims that as a descendant of Mormon pioneers, his ancestral rights to the land his family settled in the 19th century (1800s) and his animals have grazed on for years give him authority over federal laws and court orders. Following his logic, Native Americans claiming real ancestral rights can take possession of the entire continental United States. However, because they are not white Mormons disobeying federal laws and court orders, they would be summarily gunned down and most likely by white conservative armed militias.

The Second American Revolution? C'mon, man a sequel after all these years?
Tron Legacy, Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, Die Hard 4 and The Phantom Menace. None of them did well after 20 years, hold much of a chance to you think you have on capitalizing an audience after over 200 years?
It'll be in 3D though. May be that will bring them in. But I think you're right. Never as good as the original.
Maybe the government will launch the rays of the poop gun on them just like was unleashed on the poor soldiers of Enlisted.
In order to pay his fees he would have had to have signed a contract first that would have caused him to lose both his water rights and would have reduced the number of cattle he owned by 90%. Why would he ever agree to such a thing under the supposed guise to protect desert tortoises?
This is nothing more than blackhearted political corruption to run the ranchers off their land and steal the water and land rights from the State and its citizens.
