This is a video of Ammon Bundy's first meeting with the FBI.
Scroll down to about 23:15 in the video,
you will hear Bundy say "I want the Federal Government to get back in their cage"
as one of his demands to the FBI.
Ammon Bundy seems to think that the Federal Government has no Constitutional Authority.
This is a slap in the face of the American People.
*EDIT* I watched this video on another website and now they chopped out that section of the video.
I went back to 18.00 and I'm seeing at least three chopped out interrupted portions of the video.
It was there, I specifically heard it, and the FBI has it.

What they're hammering on are cherry-picked sections of the Articles of Confederation, actually. The Constitution has since been amended.
These terrorists would be happy if we could all go back to the Wild West, women could be their property and they could own slaves.
And Bundy would be happy as a polygamist Mormon since that seems to fit quite nicely with all of the above.

and dangerous ones at that.
I've seen many terrorist wingnuts on other websites and Youtube videos making threats over removing them.
We can't let Ammon Bundy get away with this.

(34,661 posts)same and similiar statements made by the John Birchers in the late Forties and Fifties. Same Crap just a new Day. Only difference,back then they were waving their Bibles and Book of Mormons as well as something appearing to be a Constitution,and today they walk around with a Carbine slung over their shoulders. Same Families,different generation.

(14,272 posts)His interpretation of reality is clearly at odds with the rest of his fellow Americans. I fear this is not going to end without some form of violence and many people will get seriously hurt or even worse, killed. It is just sad that the madness of the Bundy's and the militia movement is deliberately provoking an inevitable show down they cannot and will not win. This feels like a slow motion suicide playing out in front of us. The entire situation is senseless.
