Does anyone remember the name of BUNDY?
They began their rise with a stand off about some cattle in a wildlife refuge….it then escalated later onto a bird sanctuary and a confrontation with Federal agents….now the son of the elder Bundy has decided that the militia movement is bogus…..in solidarity with the so-called “caravan”…….
Ammon Bundy is best known as a leading light of the American militia movement (a motley coalition of various different flavors of firearms enthusiasts who hate the federal government). He’s famous for getting into armed standoffs with federal agents and violently occupying bird sanctuaries. His friends are the kind of folks who co-chair pro-Trump veterans groups; his father is the kind of man who says, “I want to tell you one more thing I know about the Negro” — and proceeds to explain why black people were “better off as slaves.”
So, this being 2018, Bundy naturally just disavowed the militia movement in solidarity with the migrant caravan, suggested that nationalism is actually the opposite of patriotism, and said that Trump’s America resembles nothing so much as 1930s Germany.
Now I want to hear the retort from the alt-Right that held the Bundys up as the saviors of America…..
Lawbreakers, plain and simple.
Yes they were…..but that is a lot of the militia movement….chuq
Bundy’s group was always against any Federal intervention in everyday life. I suspect he is less concerned about that ‘Caravan’, and more about making a point about ‘Individuals’. I wouldn’t really trust anyone like that to have genuine motives.
Best wishes, Pete.
They have become addicted to the media coverage and they will do what they must to keep the drug flowing….chuq
