Sheriff, Feds Say Rancher Cliven Bundy Must Be Held Accountable

U.S. Bureau of Land Management officials say they agree with a Nevada sheriff's position that rancher Cliven Bundy must be held accountable for his role in an April standoff between his supporters and the federal agency.

Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie said Bundy crossed the line when he allowed states' rights supporters, including self-proclaimed militia members, onto his property to aim guns at police.

"If you step over that line, there are consequences to those actions," Gillespie told the Las Vegas Review-Journal. "And I believe they stepped over that line. No doubt about it. They need to be held accountable for it."

They have been pretty lenient with him so far, surprised he isn't in jail by now.

Wow, well now that is a novel idea, how about the government/Obama is made accountable for the mess they have made of this country!!??.

The BLM had their snipers all set up aiming their guns at Bundy first. Self defense is not a crime. Besides, the BLM was actively shooting cattle and pushing them into pits they had dug to bury them, remember?

I'd say the BLM needs to be held as accountable for starting the war in the first place.

Reid must have bought Gillespie. No real American would say something like that.

Maybe that state trooper who beat that old woman's face in, can knock some sense into him.

Of course they didn't say they overstepped boundaries & need to be accountable.
