The militia has upwards of a thousand heavily armed members patrolling the Bunkerville area. Local congressman calls on Gov. Sandoval to investigate and put an end to the harassment of the locals.

Do you want to buy the Golden Gate Bridge?

Do you really believe a 5th grader spoke to Horsford and ran off all those talking points? Such a smart little girl going through the list of buzz words.

Who the hell does he think he is? “They don’t belong in Bunkerville or any other part of our community.”

Is he calling for a police state? It's a free country isn't it?

Time for another nuclear surface burst test. Well, maybe not. I'd hate to see innocent citizens get killed along side the scum.

That point escapes the left unless it is them that are gathering and then they'd rail about the reactionary government. I have not heard of any violence from the vacationers nor of any arrests by local law enforcement. Horsford is grandstanding IMHO. The whole thing would have dissipated by now if it wasn't stirred up by Reid and others with political interests.

So what if a thousand armed "New Black Panthers" were hanging around to protect a Mosque in Tennessee. What would be the reaction then?

Well when you talk about armed one would need to look at the legalities. Is it legal?

On BLM land it's legal, it's also public land for all to enjoy.

So true, the left feels they are the only ones with rights to assemble and demonstrate.

They also don't understand the premiss of the protest. Bundy's situation is a flash point of government abuse of power. That's the reason people are supporting it, not because someone should not pay graizing fees.

So the profit margin is 20% of total and ca 80% of the cost of the product. Doesn't seem bad at all.
The car indicates ca 1936-ish at the earliest
