BLM attorneys have to go to court, request a lien, then a judge will grant the lien, or not. A judge can't arbitrarily place a lien on someone's property.

And what good does the lien on Bundy's property do?
 
Re: Bundy questioned whether blacks were better off as slaves

Interesting...

Media critic and Fox News host Howard Kurtz blasted his own network on Sunday for its silence on Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy's widely condemned comments about blacks and slavery.

The New York Times reported Wednesday that Bundy wondered aloud during a press conference whether blacks were "better off as slaves, picking cotton" than "under government subsidy."

On Sunday's "MediaBuzz," Kurtz called Bundy's remarks "blatantly racist" and said that in his view Fox News "fell seriously short" in its coverage -- when the story circulated on Thursday, he said, there was "virtually no mention" of the racist remarks on the network.

"I think that to ignore a major story that was on the front page of the New York Times, at a time when the network, among others, had devoted a lot of time to covering this to story and to building up Clive (sic) Bundy, I think that gives ammunition to Fox's detractors," he said.

Fox News host Sean Hannity in particular championed Bundy's side of the federal land use conflict. He brought Bundy onto his primetime program several times as a guest and at one point heavily implied that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) were planning a secret raid on the Bundy ranch along with federal authorities. Hannity called the rancher's comments "beyond despicable" Thursday on his radio show.

Mr. Bundy may not realize that there are still people alive who experienced Jim Crow, as any form of equal work for equal pay.

As law enforcement offices, they are. If one of those hillbillies started shooting, BLM would retrun force. That is what law enforcement officsers do. The militia dudes think they can use deadly force to protect their deadbeat racist, a law enforcement officer surely can. Correct?

The officers should be allowed to defend themselves, they were the ones with a legal right to be there IMHO and the armed gang was there with no legal right to be there and most certainly not to use violence against legal representatives of the government.

If one of those criminals had fired against the officers, these officers would have been totally allowed to use deadly force to protect themselves and carry out their duties.

You mean... showing respect for the work ethic of Mexicans, respect for how tight their families are, while lamenting the destruction of black America and the role government has had in it?

Sowell, Williams and Powell all have stated something similar. Obama even stated something along those lines once... to which Jackson stated he wanted to cut his nuts out.

The ignorance is all yours.

Adding your whines about the forum emoticons and now your second attempt to play as if you did not avoid the topic in order to trot out imagined "squealing" and hollering" to the list of your other idiotic empty diversions? Such as joining a thread is "butting in" and asking a question is "attacking" and "insulting" you or trying to "moderate you" in some supposedly rule breaking fashion, just proves the age old adage is true; you can't fix stupid.:cool:

I think the Thread name needs to be changed to "MARRIED WITH COWS"...starring Cliven Bundy and his cows.

I'm not in the high desert, just the Valley of the Sun, we had a surprisingly cool weekend in mid70's, but the days of mid 90's are back and the hell of the 110's are looming.

Ah damn I can't be sarcastic, seriously **** this guy, **** his supports, **** these militias, **** Sean Hannity for trying to turn this guy into a hero.

Its a shame that this could end in a shoot out that could cost the lives of several law enforcement officers, but the more of these ****s that die the better off we'd all be

The problem I have with this whole affair is the far right embracing this guy as a hero of their cause, when in fact he's just a large scale welfare cheat. For 20 years he's been living off a subsidy of low federal range fees. Just as the "loonie left" demands their right to a "living wage", they now demand the right for subsidized feed charges to the tune of $15 a head per year.

The fact that it's become a race issue is not in any way surprising; is there anything in the US that doesn't?

You seem pretty CONfused... an agency doesn't hold a commission, a law enforcement officer does. BLM officers have been involved with use of deadly force before. The feds use a occupational code for jobs, the two you want to investigate are 1801 and 1811. If you see the BLM ranger has attended FLETC he/she is a commissioned federal agent with arrest and use of deadly force powers.

Should be easy...yes?

Yes, it was easy, and several posters did it.

BLM employs law enforcement agents, who are armed and trained.
You may choose to reject that, or accept it.

It's not a strawman, it's a premise that you have failed to grasp. I suppose it being unstated requests a bit much brain juice for some, but I've seen it before and at least one poster here has admitted to it.

The fundamental agreement to be made is that blacks are slaves today. The acceptance of that premise is the only thing the presenter of this opinion is really worried about (if they're conscious of what they're doing). Once that is accepted, the founding narrative is open and we must explore why blacks, despite all efforts at equal rights and justice, are still slaves today. Gee... what could it be?
