He stood up to them last year and won. Resistance to the State will not be tolerated.
From Fox News.
Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, the father of the jailed militia leader whose followers have occupied a federal wildlife refuge in eastern Oregon for the past 40 days, was arrested by FBI agents in Portland, Ore. late Wednesday as he stepped off a flight from Las Vegas.
Bundy’s arrest was confirmed on the website of the Multnomah County Sheriff’s Office, which said he had been booked in to the Multnomah County Detention Center shortly before 11 p.m. local time.
The FBI also confirmed Cliven Bundy’s arrest but declined to provide a reason or other details, saying further information would be released by the U.S. Attorney’s office in Las Vegas Thursday.
The Oregonian newspaper reported that Bundy faces charges related to the 2014 standoff between federal agents and militia members on his Nevada ranch. The charges include conspiracy to interfere with a federal officer, the same charge lodged against two of Bundy’s sons, Ammon and Ryan, for their role in the ongoing standoff at the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge.
The four remaining holdouts occupying the refuge said earlier Wednesday that they would turn themselves in Thursday morning.
Ammon Bundy’s lawyer, Mike Arnold, told The Oregonian that Cliven Bundy was considering joining a news conference held by Nevada Assemblywoman Michele Fiore to discuss the ongoing occupation. Fiore spent most of Wednesday night talking to the remaining militia members as federal agents surrounded the refuge.
“It’s terribly unfortunate the timing of his arrest, given all the progress Assemblywoman Fiore made this evening,” Arnold said. “He was arrested without incident and without violence. That should give [the militia members] comfort in their decision tomorrow
The Bureau of Land Management said at the time of the 2014 standoff that Bundy owed over $1 million in fees and penalties for trespassing cattle on federal property without a permit over 20 years. Bundy refuses to acknowledge federal authority over public lands.
The standoff began after the BLM impounded Bundy’s cattle that were found on federal property. However, federal agents later backed down and allowed Bundy’s supporters to turn the cattle.
The feds have a lengthy history of government malfeasance and criminal intimidation of private land owners.
The ranchers’ protests in Oregon led to the latest notch in the FBI’s murder belt. They shot LaVoy Finicum in the back over the government’s land and water grabs.
This is the fed’s way of saying ‘we don’t like being crossed and we will find a way to get revenge’.
If the fucknuts in the federal government focused on real threats in this country, i.e. muzzie terrorist vermin, they’d be more useful.

Please fix this post. They didn’t shoot and kill Ammon, they killed LaVoy Finicum.
Mr. Allen,
Thank you for the information. The original post did have Finicum’s name, but I mistakenly typed Mr.Ammon’s name instead. The correction has been made.

Leadership of the federal agencies is malicious and they in turn foster malicious behavior. I recently spent some time with a young cop on the NYPD. He said that he was trained that, domestic terrorists, predomanently “patriots”, are more dangerous than “immigrants”. I said, “refugees”. He said, “No, patriots. They are ready to strike.”
He knew that I am a retired cop of the 20th century. He did not know, that I am a Patriot, and what he has been taught is absolutely wrong and self-serving of politics where budgets are increased as threats arise and the danger levels, high. Political culture involved is flawed.
