Ammon Bundy, the son of besieged Nevada
rancher Cliven Bundy, told Infowars reporter David Knight today around
20 cowboys went on land claimed by the U.S. Bureau of Land Management
(BLM) and retrieved cattle.
“We gathered about 30 head,” said Bundy.
“We did have a small confrontation with them, but they didn’t have the
forces to do a whole lot. They couldn’t mobilize fast enough and we were
able to gather those cattle and get them to the ranch.”
Cliven Bundy and his family are currently
engaged in a standoff with the BLM over a long standing refusal to
acknowledge a 1993 modification to grazing rights on land that Bundy
asserts has been in his family since 1870. On Saturday, hundreds of
federal officials, aided by helicopters, low flying aircraft and hired
cowboys, began rounding up Bundy’s cattle in northeastern Clark County.
Bundy’s dispute with the feds escalated yesterday when several of his supporters were assaulted by
BLM officials. The BLM is currently rounding up Bundy’s cattle in order
to enforce a regulation in order to protect an endangered desert
tortoise after 600,000 acres of public land was reclassified as federal
property.
During that confrontation, Ammon Bundy,
was tasered. His sister, a cancer victim, and a pregnant woman were
assaulted by BLM agents.
Protesters chanted “no BLM” as the
standoff came to an end. BLM agents began to leave while being yelled at
to “get out of here!”
Ammon told Knight and Infowars state representatives will address demonstrators later today.
