Report from the front: <a href="http:\/\/westernrifleshooters.wordpr...\/2014\/04\/12\/bundyranch-report-from-the-ground\/" target="_blank">" rel="nofollow noopener" title="http://westernrifleshooters.wordpress.com/2014/04...">http://westernrifleshooters... <i>I just arrived at the ranch at 0340. So far my phone and iPad are indicating good reception. I drove by the LEO compound on the way in to Mesquite to fill up on fuel. They have generators with flood lights at their entrance. It looks like something reminiscent to Iraq with the way they have their vehicle entry point set up. The barricades are set up to ensure a vehicle can&rsquo;t penetrate the main gate. They even have a dump truck parked across the entrance to the compound &ndash; to further prevent a VBIED attack?
As I drove further down the road I could see flood lights illuminating the dry riverbed. It appears they have an inner and outer perimeter and a third perimeter of early warning equipment. The LEO compound is more than a compound. It is a fire base, pure and simple.
There are 3 satellite news vans parked at the entrance. So far I have seen about 100 cars parked along side the rode. People are sleeping in tents and in their vehicles. I have made friends with the family parked next to me. They said they are from from Utah, Mom and her 2 teenage girls, an older brother and his roommate. All are open carrying.
Going to crash out in the truck. The rally starts at 9. Will try to send updates as I get new useful info.</i>
Ooh, and from the same site a poem!
<i>TOO MANY CATTLE Archer Garrett
Too many cattle Agraze on this sand. And stamping their hooves On dirt snapper land.
So pay us our duty And thin out your herd. We&rsquo;re tired of the courtroom. Won&rsquo;t be no more words.
&ldquo;We settled this desert With our sweat and blood. So I won&rsquo;t bend my knee To Federal thugs.&rdquo;
&ldquo;We went and we told him With menace and smirk. But he just looked past us And spat in the dirt.&rdquo;
&ldquo;The man needs a lesson And we a dry run. So put on your brown shirts And sight in your guns.&rdquo;
They found them a posse. Imposters in boots. Who&rsquo;d never known honor And knew not their roots.
And choppers ran cattle Til they fell mid-stride. (Which dump trucks and back hoes Did their best to hide.)
A few men did show up To stand in protest. But were prodded like cattle And corralled into nets.
And if I&rsquo;ve heard it once I&rsquo;ve heard it a grand. &ldquo;We&rsquo;re drawin&rsquo; a line, boys. We&rsquo;re takin&rsquo; a stand.&rdquo;
But we&rsquo;re all just livestock. Awatin&rsquo; our brands. There&rsquo;s too many cattle Agraze in this land. </i>
actually, I was pleasantly surprised to see quite a bit of pushback against the idjits. There are a lot of people tired of the fake patriot bullshit- any time a comment thread like that doesn&#039;t get overwhelmed by the zealots it means they&#039;re losing the PR battle
<i>â« â« Well, I&#039;m about as heavy as a four-door Chevy in a room full of Cadillac limousines, Just about as hip as a hunk of linoleum About as psychedelic as a can of beans,
I&#039;m about as groovy as a John Wayne movie But there&#039;s something that I gotta say... If this country stinks, then so do I And I&#039;ll fight to keep it that way
CHORUS: This land ain&#039;t your land...this land is MY land From California to Levitown, Long Island, From the Gulf Stream Golf Course, to the US Air Force, uh-huh, This land was made for folks like me!
Well, the hippies are quiet, but you know they&#039;re gonna riot They must be up to something, &#039;cause they look so strange, Walking down the street with a weirdo hair-do Their hands in the air, &#039;do you got spare change?&#039;
Well I never give &#039;em any...not a penny. I just kick &#039;em, then I say, If this country stinks, than so do I And I&#039;ll fight to keep it that way!&quot;
He hasn&#039;t paid the fucking grazing fees since 1997! And the fees are ridiculously low any way. NPR just now says BLM has ended the cattle roundup citing security concerns, what with all the patriots showing up. So this will be seen as a victory for the common man. Who&#039;s a wealthy cheapskate crackpot.
He doesn&#039;t want liberty and freedom, he is an asshole that wants grazing rights for free
Fucking orangutan Placenta Effusions is the name of my new garage band.
Adding to the irony; Bundy&#039;s ranch is, in fact... located in Bunkerville, NV.
I shit you not.
The land was ceded by Mexico to the US in 1848.
Cell phone service was mysteriously disrupted to the US Constitution, ratified in 1789, so it could not be reached for comment on who was there first.

More like Martin Mull&#039;s version:

Mmmmm.... The Government Teat. Don&#039;t it taste purdy?
nuke &#039;em from orbit- it&#039;s the only way to be sure
Your avatar probably has some interesting suggestions.
Hypocrisy, thy name is wingnut.
<i>My forefathers have been up and down the Virgin Valley ever since 1877</i>
But the federal government&#039;s been around since 1776!
Annex the land AND the cows. For the glory of Mother Russia.
