Are you seriously trying to suggest that LEO aren't authorized to use deadly force???
The BLM fields a force of approximately 200 Law Enforcement Rangers (uniformed officers) and 70 Special Agents (criminal investigators) who enforce a wide range of laws and regulations in the prevention, detection, and investigation of crimes affecting public lands resources. These crimes include mineral resource theft; wilderness area violations; hazardous materials dumping; archaeological and paleontological resource theft and vandalism; cultivation, manufacture, smuggling, and use of illegal drugs; timber, forest product, and native plant theft; off-highway vehicle use; alcohol related crimes; and wildland arson.

I'm sure you did. :doh
Wtf?
Out of context.
It is more than apparent he is speaking to those in the welfare state.
Do you honestly think he was addressing those who weren't?
I would hope not as that would be out of context.
And yet here you are suggesting exactly that. :doh
Which is really asinine given the fact of content of context of what he said.
He was speaking concern, not hatred, intolerance or disparagement.
Which is really asinine given the fact of content of context of what he said. Nothing he said was racist.

How absurd. He didn't use it to disparage. In content and context there was no disparagement.
Wow. You really went over the deep end with that irrelevant info.
His words were not racist.
Nothing you provided shows they were.
You have failed to prove what I said wrong. His words were not racist.
It is you who do not have the intellect or integrity to understand and admit the truth.
He was speaking concern, not hatred, intolerance, disparagement or of the thought that his race was better.
Especially as he said the Mexican's had better values. That is not what a racist says.
All you keep doing is showing that you do not have the ability to discern and comprehend outside of your own unintelligent ridiculous bias.
And when it is pointed out to you, you fail to have the integrity to admit you are wrong.
His words were not racist.
He was speaking concern, not hatred, intolerance, disparagement or of the thought that his race was better.
And yet here you are idiotically claiming a non-existent racism.
Truly sad.
One you should try to understand his comments in context.
He was speaking in comparison to.
And he said we do not want to go back to that. Or do you really not understand that?
Those are not the word of a racist.
Didn't read it anywhere, but it's obvious that he is not an educated person, educated people don't usually make openly racial disparaging comments like he did.
In the 2000 SC primary debate with McCain and Bush, moderated by Larry King he walked all over them both. When Larry King asked him about racial profiling he said (paraphrasing):Alan Keyes. Now there is a smart black man. They all hate him though because he thinks for himself and doesn't want to carry water for the Democrats.
As I prefaced my earlier post. "Would you have the intellectual honesty when proven wrong?"
Well, you have shown everyone that you do not.
Write as many irrational flailing's as you like, it's obvious to anyone reasonable that I proved you wrong.
I used the definition of racism that YOU provided and made the factual point, in the future, please don't call anyone unintelligent.
You lack the credentials.
I wonder... why didn't the press go gaga over this black man? Ahhh right... he's a Conservative.
This is what happens when Libbos start trying to attach historical legitimacy to Liberalism...lol!
Same reason they didn't go gaga over Allen West & Tim Scott. They don't like black men who don't know their place, apparently. You can only be a respectable black man if you hang with the cool Liberals.
Alan Keyes is wise. I used to love to watch him on CNN I think it was, years back. Love him.
If you're going to accuse the media of liberal bias, why can't they just dislike his politics? I don't like Sarah Palin. Does that make me a misogynist?

I dont recall Keyes being nominated.
The BLM showed up like it was Mogadishu. Yes, they were ready for a firefight.
I believe it shows a very high degree of incompetance that NO ONE in the BLM said, "maybe we shouldn't roll in, armed to the teeth, looking like we're looking for trouble. It's just a buncha cows, afterall".
No clue why you posted this to me. Sarah Palin has nothing to do with what I said.
I dont recall Keyes being nominated.
Nominated for what?

Alan Keyes
This is the electoral history of Alan Keyes, a frequent candidate. He has never been elected to office.
You claimed that the media doesn't "go gaga" over black conservatives like Keyes because they dislike black men who "don't know their place," implying a form of racism on the part of the left. I wondered why the left is being accused of this when the alternative explanation is simply that they disagree with his politics. They don't like Keyes for the same reasons they don't like Gingrich or Huckabee. Why does his race even come into it?
I brought up Sarah Palin as a similar example that swaps racism for sexism. If I don't like Palin, is it because she doesn't know her place as a woman by hanging with the cool liberals? Or do I just think her positions are absurd?
That doesn't answer my question to mak, which made no sense with my post he quoted.

I'm not a person who would accuse the liberal media of being racist against a black man.
I wouldn't presume to speak for mak ...but I think his point was that, as much as you love Keyes ... the American public doesn't.It doesn't answer my question to mak, Buck. I have no idea what the nomination thing was about. I never suggested that Keyes was nominated so I have no idea why his electoral history is relevant.

Apologies if I offended you, but I'm not sure what you were trying to say, then.
Back on the subject: I don't think Bundy is a malicious racist. He's just got a bad case of the stupids, no idea how to speak to a national audience, and is making the common mistake of glorifying the past while ignoring its flaws.
Comparing himself to Rosa Parks is really something, though. I almost feel bad for the guy, letting his own stupidity carry him out over his head like this.
Nominated for what?
if he is such a great guy and all the other Republicna canditates were fatally flawed...
