Title: Reports of militia check-points in Nevada
Post by: Perd Hapley on May 04, 2014, 11:43:27 PM
Reports, or rumors?

http://www.reuters.com/article/2014/04/30/us-usa-nevada-rancher-idUSBREA3T15520140430

http://www.startribune.com/nation/257514641.html

This is the letter sent by a U.S. Representative to the county sheriff.

Doesn't seem to be any hard evidence; just allegations.  =|

If this is true, it would not be a good day for a "militia member" who tried to checkpoint me whilst I was traveling on a public road. Private road that belongs to you, fine, I don't care.

no evidence?  you don't believe?
"Bundy denies that militia members set up checkpoints on public property. He said armed guards do stop and screen visitors at the gate to his ranch.

A group of militia members who stopped a neighboring rancher trucking cattle last Saturday to Arizona, about 12 miles to the east, were helping his son, Ryan Bundy, the family patriarch said. They wanted to ensure that Bundy cattle weren't being rustled.

A guard also is stationed on a dirt road leading to a gravel quarry on private land where DeLemus and his group have been camping for almost three weeks.

At a campsite with a sign dubbing it "Bunker Hill," Jason Scott Patrick, 42, from Bonaire, Georgia, described wielding a weapon during the standoff in a dry wash beneath the I-15 overpass."

OK, the sniper guy is a different topic. We're talking about residents and travelers (not BLM) being stopped by militia. But you knew that.

Most of the rest sounds like private security, which I thought was legal. The guy they stopped with a truckful of cattle, we'd need more details. What does that mean, they stopped him? Flagged him down, ran him off the road, a road-block? Private land, or public road?

Evidence in terms of people saying that they saw militia members running checkpoints on public roads? I never denied that.

"Hard evidence," which is the term I used, like photo or video? How does no one have any of that? I haven't seen reports of victims contacting police about any of this. Have you?

I am curious as to Bundy's position in his church and how they regard him and the clan

If the road is on private property, and privately built and maintained, and the folks doing the stopping are the land owner or his agents, the yes, why wouldn't it be ok?

Now the articles are unclear as to whether those conditions have been met, but at least on the driveway to his house I find it likely that they have been.

12 miles away, stopping his neighbor? Sketchier.  But wait, I got something for this:

i find the lack of noise from the other rancher telling id like to see tapes from that stopping if the other guy wasnt stealing cattle then theres  no problem stopping to prove it his third cousin is a felon anyway so he deserved it
Title: Re:

12 mile away was off his ranch. What was his sons legal authority again?
I think if they'd actually caught a rustler he'd out it as evidence of what hes up against.  Its telling to me that he brought it up. And apparently thinks he or his son had the right. Most mentally disturbed folks know they are right. I would indeed be interested in hearing more about the stop. In particular ask if he was intimidated by the millionaire with the large family posse and volunteer army

That's an interesting point. Does use of a private road subject one to vigilante search. I can't find a reference to that being the case. Heck entering secure gov installation they have warning signs sometimes citing the legal code that informs one that you are subject to search. Buddy's got a ton of kin in that part of the world but that will only carry you so far before someone gets bad hurt

I am not defending anybody here, nor have much of an opinion about stuff I don't actually know to be true. 

But how is it any different than having the Secret Service disrupt, stop, check out, bear arms and prohibit free access and the ability to come and go for a citizen who has not been threatened and happens to have a public office or is a celebrity and a rancher who had been confronted by armed tactical agents of the federal government who went far beyond what might be considered appropriate for the situation.

Just wondering.

You can also read Private Road as Private Driveway. Out in big rural areas a driveway that measures in miles isn't uncommon.
Also on big acerages you will find "private roads" all over the place. On some of my family's land what we called a road was little more than the tracks/ruts left over decades of driving across the dry areas, but we called it a road and if there were strangers driving on our "road" you could bet on them getting stopped and questioned.
Remember, the press is pretty much on your side so anything they can spin to make Bundy look worse will make print.

The press? I am using bundy's own statement. He was the one that brought up his son and militia stopping a neighbor so they could determine his cows weren't  being rustled.
Is it your contention his spread extended 12 miles? That the truck was stopped on his driveway? Not possible 12 miles away. Now since in his world he is not subject to the same restrictions mere mortals are he may well regard that road as his. That's the kinda thinking that's got him in trouble.

I have no idea whether or not Bundy's deeded land is contiguous.

Lots of Montana ranches are checkerboarded: 2 or 3 sections (sq mi) here, 4 or 5 sections there, and another section or two way over that away.  Just a few years ago I participated in a ~30 mile cattle drive coming down from summer pasture to one of two of the guy's "home ranches."

Ok, so nearly a page has gone by since I last checked in, and nobody (not even our resident Google Fu Grand Master and Bundy Debunker) has unearthed anything to substantiate that militia are subjecting Nevadans to vigilante check-points.

We have one incident that might be questionable, if we had more details, and that's about it.

Any objective observer, from my distance, would have to call it "something of which I've not seen the details."

Besides, that's one guy being stopped (whatever that means). That does not sound like a checkpoint to anyone who knows what the word means.

He's actually pretty good at both, but he's not doing such a good job in this thread.

 ;/ Again, where's the evidence that any militia groups are stopping people, outside of private property, and checking ID? I would be more willing to believe such if people were calling police, instead of writing their congressman, and having him write a vague letter.

CSD,

I apologize.

I just checked the dictionary, and found out that I was wrong about the definitions of a great many words in our English lexicon. After re-reading the accounts, I now understand that "we stopped a guy with a load of cattle," when read carefully, actually means, "we set up a roadblock on the highway, and made multiple car-loads of people show us their credentials before we would let them pass."

The egg on my face right now is, well, it's just really something.

Before I answer your questions, do we agree that I'm not doubting Bundy's statement that they stopped a guy hauling cattle?

Do we further agree that his statement falls far short of saying that the man was stopped by force, or threat of force?

Do we also agree that Bundy's statement about the truck being stopped seems unconnected to any alleged militia checkpoint?

Can we also agree that it's rather odd how little evidence for any illegal checkpoints has thus far appeared (at least that I've seen)? Why would the media be ignoring the Bundys now?

Maybe . No. No. Yes.
Anytime a group of armed men stop me there is a threat of force. And if it's the folks in the vid "in charge" at the bundys the threat is high
The statement about his son stopping the truck was made in an interview after he was asked about and denied checkpoints. I don't think clivens in charge if his army. It's taken a life of its own.
It remains to be seen how much the locals will tolerate. He's lads and that counts for a lot out there. They have no love for outsiders. Something that may haunt bundy soon

The chuckles continue.

There's video of Checkpoint Bundy, now? If so, I missed it. I don't know how else you would know that the men who stopped the suspected cattle-rustler were armed at all, much less armed in any way other than merely having holstered sidearms, like most of us carry sidearms on a regular basis. And it would be interesting if you were to claim that having a holstered sidearm is in itself a threat of force. If they had any visible or concealed guns at all.

To answer your questions, I don't know how many people were coming down the back roads.

Most of the evidence is in the nature of people being subject to private security, on private property. On private land, how many people are stopped is up to the property owner/manager, and completely at his discretion, what contracts are in place, etc.

On public roads, no one should be stopped by force, or the threat of force, by any vigilante group.

OK?

So two pages later, no more evidence for something that would have to have been very public, and happened to numerous people, over a long enough time for police or press to arrive.

the only people other than .gov who ever stopped me on a public road in Nevada was burningman idiots - they were shocked when I started asking them if i was being detained and telling them i want my lawyer now, i want their LE credentials for inspections - they were even more pissed off when I drove around them in a different direction then they wanted me to go.

I do not even need to read the whole thread to smell the bovine excrement - people who stop rural and mess with nevadans don't live long, whether they are LE/militia or burners ....

Three sir!

So far, we're only at about two and a fifth pages. It will be three, once we reach the fourth page. Yes, I'm a huge nerd.

If I came home to find a box truck coming out of my driveway, I would stop them too.

And yes I'm armed.


The funny thing is that I have this magic ability to figure that something I'm doing might look suspicious to somebody else, and not get offended when we stop and talk.

The fact that CSD couldn't get his JBT on when the BLM pulled out has him itchin' for them to go back and "finish the job".

CSD, call the BLM and have them accuse Bundy of attacking a radio transmitter inside the German border on BLM land, and then they can get their Blitzkreig on, since it's taking far too long for someone in their "Camp/Checkpoint" to have that ND they soooooo desperately need to begin the kitten massacre and puppy stomping.

If he had stopped em in his driveway you'd have a point.  12 miles away? Not so much unless you are signed up for the he owns the whole 150 square miles

Read an interesting bit from the cattlemens assoc. It mentioned that 16000 other ranchers seem to be able to pay for their grazing.  Shocked I was

Wunnerful.  Perhaps they should have paid Bundy's fees too.  [tinfoil]
Just WHO are these 16000 ranchers, anyway?  And where'd the cattlemens' assoc. get that number?

Just, you know, not grazing where the desert tortoise are.  Since the BLM doesn't issue grazing permits in Bundy's area anymore.  Thereby killing off that industry in that location.  Except one, apparently.  But don't worry, he'll be dead soon.  And his death will save a tortoise.  Or something.

Here's a piece that outlines some very important dates. I particular when the ranch was actually bought and when bundys actually showed up

Not to spoil it by interjecting facts but how large is the area he was formerly permitted to graze? Not gonna count the extra he started using once he declared sovereignty . And how large is the area restricted by the tortoise protective measures?

Lots of rehash here but one important thing is bundys family moved from Arizona to bunkerville and bought their 160 acres in 1948 not 1870. That's the first out and out lie I've seen cliven fly

Okay, that's an interesting point  =)

I bet if you go back and look at that purchase then you would find that the grazing lease was part of the contract.

Since we all like to talk about "property rights"    :lol:

Dunno who they are but the Denver Post accepts that number.

There are about 16,000 ranchers across the country, and not a few in these parts. Ranchers pay relatively modest fees ($1.35 per head per month at present) to graze cattle on public land.

"renewable"

So you think people routinely pay huge sums for ranches that are largely leased land, with the expectation that all that land will be lost within 10 years  ???   ;/

You still don't understand the West, and it's no good to try to explain it  :facepalm:
