Sheriff Mack travels with other CSPOA
members to stand with Nevada rancher against the BLM
Many
of you have called or emailed regarding the storm brewing between Nevada rancher
Cliven Bundy and the BLM. We all know how we feel about the all-too-frequent
bullying of individual citizens by various Feds with their usurped,
unconstitutional powers. It's an epidemic that must be stopped.
Well, we
want you to know we ARE doing something about it, and thankfully this time we're
not alone. Sheriff Mack is leaving early Saturday morning for an emergency trip
to Bunkerville, Nevada, along with other members of the CSPOA posse (hopefully
that's some of you!) to stand vigil and find a peaceful resolution to this
conflict (i.e., the feds going home).
AND this late-breaking news
as per Lyle Rapacki today:
State Senate President Andy Biggs and
House of Reps Speaker Dave Livingston have both agreed
that Arizona should be involved in supporting CSPOA and Oath
Keepers in going to Bunkerville, NV to support the movement for freedom
there with the Cliven Bundy family. State Senators Al Melvin, Chester Crandall,
and Kelly Ward along with State Reps Brenda Barton, Bob Thorpe, Kelly Townsend
and Warren Peterson are all planning to be at the Bundy ranch by Sunday morning. Furthermore, they all plan to attend the Press
Conference Monday afternoon with the CSPOA and Oath
Keepers along with the Bundys and other sheriffs and public officials from
across the country.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We
hope you understand how HUGE this is, that state senators and reps are
supporting the CSPOA and the Oath Keepers! We are not
alone!
We want to see YOU at this
event. The more support we show in numbers, the more seriously they
will take us. If you are not able to attend, please consider donating to a
special fund we have set up for this cause. For those
of you who can't make it and would like to help CSPOA and Oath Keepers pay for
this huge undertaking, please contribute whatever you can.
Donate to the Brady Ranch
Fund
We quote now from an excellent press release
regarding the event, recently put out by the Oath Keepers, one
of our closest allies.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
A Delegation of state
legislators, lead by Washington State Representative Matt Shea, along with a
delegation of current serving Sheriffs, lead by Sheriff Richard Mack of the
Constitutional Sheriffs and Peace Officers Association, and military and police
members of Oath Keepers, are converging on the site of a stand-off between
federal law enforcement and Nevada Rancher Cliven Bundy, to prevent bloodshed
and to stand in defense of hardworking rural Americans who are under assault by
a runaway federal government.
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 with the
full article on the Oath Keepers web site, www.oathkeepers.org]:
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.
