LAS VEGAS, NV, April
10, 2014
The Constitutional
Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association (CSPOA.org), led by retired Arizona
Sheriff Richard Mack, and the Oath Keepers organization (oathkeepers.org)
are assisting Washington State Representative Matt Shea in organizing a
delegation of current serving Western state legislators and Sheriffs to
travel to the site of a tense stand-off between Bunkerville, Nevada rancher
Cliven Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management (BLM). The delegation
is traveling to Nevada to support a coalition of current serving Nevada
legislators being organized by Nevada State Assemblywoman Michele Fiore, of
Las Vegas, to stand vigil at the Bundy ranch to prevent Federal Government
provocation of violence resulting in another Ruby Ridge or Waco type
incident. They also hope that their example of oath-sworn public
servants defending the rights of the people will prompt Clark County,
Nevada Sheriff Douglas Gillespie and Nevada Governor Brian Sandoval to
honor their oaths of office by taking real action to defend the rights of
the Bundy family, the rights of all Nevadans, and the sovereignty of the
State of Nevada.
Yesterday, April 9,
2014, Nevada State Assemblywoman Michele Fiore served the first watch in
this vigil shortly after Cliven Bundy's son, Ammon Bundy, was tazered by
BLM "Rangers" during a heated confrontation. The video of
that confrontation can be seen on our website.
The courage and
resolve displayed by Ammon Bundy and his relatives is inspiring, and may
well go down in history as a watershed moment - a turning of the
tide. But the above video also amply demonstrates the heavy-handed behavior
of the BLM that risks escalating an already volatile situation into open
bloodshed, that, once begun, may spiral out of anyone's control.
It is necessary that
current serving public servants step in-between the protesters and the BLM,
to protect the rights of the people and to prevent violence against them by
the militarized federal law enforcement that are massing near the ranch to
continue the forced confiscation (theft) of Bundy's cattle, while
they also restrict all access to huge tracts of public land, and attempt to
restrict the free speech of protesters with their absurd "First
Amendment Area" (which the protesters are ignoring, to their honor).
The Oath Keepers
organization, comprised of 40,000 current serving and former military,
police, and first responders, is also calling on its members and all other
patriotic Americans to join the vigil at the Bundy ranch under the
leadership of the current serving legislators and sheriffs. The goal
is to have at least one current serving state legislator and at least one
sheriff on the ground at all times until this is over. And they will
be backed by a large number of military and police veterans, as well as
dedicated patriotic Americans from all walks of life, to interpose and
defend the rights of the protesters and to keep an eye on the actions of
the BLM and any other federal law enforcement present, to prevent a
recurrence of the horrid abuses seen at Ruby Ridge and Waco, and to
hopefully pressure the Clark County Sheriff and the Nevada Governor to step
up and do their constitutional duty.
Regardless, please
tell everyone you know to be praying for a peaceful
resolution to this situation and for the safety of the brave patriots
headed there and on the ground there right now.
