Also lest we forget that law was passed in the 70s requiring the Feds and BLM to return that land to the state of Nevada, along with thousands of acres across the country, which they have not done.
Couple that with the heavy handed military action they chose to take to collect a tax debt and you've got a mess.
Buddy broke a law, true but is the law he broke in violation of previous law?
Also remember this, the Boston massacre, which is celebrated today as the kick starter to American freedom, bears a lot of parallels to what's going on with the Bundy's. Thankfully there was no massacre..... Yet

Can't believe the GOP gives the anti government nuts refuge. The same rhetoric was spewed in the early 1990's until McVeigh's bomb dialed it back a bit.

Always seems like the anti-government rhetoric/confrontations gets bit louder & more extreme under Dem administrations.
