Here is some background on this: http://www.forwardprogressives.com/cliven-bundy-now-encouraging-lunatic-followers-trample-through-navajo-nation-sites/

Here is commissioner Phil Lyman's facebook page. He is the one who organized this: https://www.facebook.com/Phil.Lyman.SanJuanCountyCommissioner

Update: The facebook page above has been closed down due to too many negative comments.

Tribal groups dismayed by Recapture ATV protest: http://www.sltrib.com/sltrib/news/57919721-78/blm-canyon-recapture-ride.html.csp

Snip from ABC News: "A 14-mile section of trail in the canyon is closed to motorized vehicles, BLM officials said, but there are more than 2,800 miles of trails open to them on public lands around Blanding." WAAAAH! We can't go on 14 miles of road yet we could drive from Utah to Europe on the roads open to ATV's around Blanding. The stupidity here is stunning!

[Mz Pip]

11. Freedumb!!!!

[Quixote1818]

Yep! How about the freedom to hike in peace without those fucking ATV's all over the place making noise and everyone looking riding on them looking like they are ready for the rapture at any minute.

[JJMacNab]

44. Odds are good

These were the same children used as human shields last month.

58. What's that flag he's carrying?

Oh, yeah...it's the flag representing the country he refuses to recognize.

[stuffmatters]

49. Ignorant,arrogant Spawn of the Medicare TP/AFP Scooter Brigade ("Govt Hands Off My Medicare!")

Same mentality but now they're younger, even more emboldened & armed.

[misterhighwasted]

4. like spoiled bratty kids.

The more u ignore them the louder they get. Until their demand for attention injures someone or destroys something treasured.

[Zipgun]

37. Agreed

I am so tired of their tantrums.

[gademocrat7]

6. Blatantly breaking the law.

These lunatics need to be held liable for their actions.

[Grassy Knoll]

7. Ha......

[Hulk]

8. Cite everyone of those brazen MF'ers.

If they cooperate...cite them. If they don't, then act accordingly.

[dhill926]

9. Fuck these assholes...

Would love to see a group from the Navaho Nation greet them the next time they try this shit...

[Mika]

10. Time for some Homeland Security ...

[unionthug777]

26. that would be ideal !!!!

i have a t-shirt with that picture on it.

[hlthe2b]

12. Devastating to me-to destroy our archeological and historical treasures--those of Native peoples

This makes me so damned angry, I would back the Federal authorities in doing nearly anything necessary. I have unending contempt for these ugly selfish cretins.

[jtuck004]

22. Is terrorism. "Be afraid of us" "We can destroy you at will" Nothin' but.

'Course, many in the government agree with them.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

40. I feel the same way.

[chillfactor]

13. was that a cop on horseback.......

encouraging these asshats? seems to me a few well-placed arrows......

[Quixote1818]

14. It might have been commissioner Phil Lyman who organized this

Here is his Facebook page. I encourage everyone to give an opinion on his post about this: https://www.facebook.com/Phil.Lyman.SanJuanCountyCommissioner

[mac56]

18. From the FB comments:

"So the County Commissioner supports riding ATV's over Native American religious and ancestral areas because it's a good riding area? That's like the Native American people riding through our veterans' cemeteries."

[Quixote1818]

20. Great comment! nt

[JohnnyRingo]

34. "A few well placed arrows" reminds me of this pic...

[arcane1]

36. Love it!!

[AtheistCrusader]

55. What the hell is the backstory on THAT porcupine?

16. Don't these morans have JOBS??!?

Seriously, WTF?

[Baitball Blogger]

17. Manifest Destiny.

[Iliyah]

19. They are using children as human shields

C O W A R D S. Disrespecting Indian lands - C O W A R D S

[world wide wally]

21. And for no logical or practical reason whatsoever… Strictly to prove you have some kind of God given

right to be an asshole that outweighs anyone else's rights. Even the dead's right to rest in peace.
Such manly men!
Now go fuck yourselves.

[HelenWheels]

23. How does one get to be commissioner? nt

[bvar22]

24. Those 4 wheelers (and 2 wheelers) do extensive, LONG lasting damage to OUR land...

.. in the dry climates of the South West.
The tracks can last for hundreds of years.

I am baffled that 4 wheelers believe they have the right to tear up any land they want to.
These people ARE breaking the law and causing lasting damage.

[Sunlei]

52. You can today see tracks from covered wagons in those remote desert areas, the land is so fragile.

[sakabatou]

25. Cite them to hell

Sue them. Do something.

[Omaha Steve]

29. Arm the First Americans

It belongs to THEM!

[JohnnyRingo]

30. Anything to bring the cameras back.

When the media coverage evaporates, so does Bundy's leverage to stall paying his debt. Eventually, he'll be quietly assessed for the money, and he knows it.

Meanwhile, playing Redneck XGames keep the militias entertained and may draw the cameras back. I hope it doesn't.

[JJMacNab]

43. The problem isn't the fees Bundy owes.

It's the presence of his herd on federal land. A few years after the BLM canceled Bundy's grazing permit for non-payment, Clark County purchased and retired those grazing rights to protect it for the endangered desert tortoise and Native American historical landmarks and plants.

[JohnnyRingo]

54. If the wheels of justice turn as expected...

..they won't be his cattle for long.

I really doubt his loyal neighbors would stab him in the back to place a bid on them though. hahahaha

[arcane1]

32. Like petulant children. And cowards.

[riqster]

33. From Lyman's Facebook post, a quote:

"To those who are reading or hearing fantastic stories about this on the news media, just know that this was a peaceful and productive protest that has helped to highlight a problem that exists both here in this canyon and in many other places through out the west.

Even to my detractors, I say thank you for your voice. If I delete your posts it is probably due to harsh rhetoric related to an issue about which you are uninformed or misinformed.
"

True patriots...

[TRoN33]

35. These men and women are double standard motherfuckers.

[zeemike]

38. They won the battle of Bundy Ranch

And now the battle of Recapture Canyon...there will be more, until the federal government gives them what they want...the public land that we all own.
They see a weak government and will take advantage of it.

[alfredo]

39. What a dickasaurus

[PumpkinAle]

41. This is desecration as well as unlawful

these cretins should be charged to the full extent of the law.

BTW this is a small area they want to destroy with their motorized vehciles - they can walk in there and enjoy the area. But no, they want to ride that area because hell the 2,800 miles of OHV trails in the same county are not enough.

[TeamPooka]

42. Fuck all those guys.

[heaven05]

45. ahhhhh!!!!

americans keeping up the grand tradition of their forebearers, disrespecting and destroying Native American culture. Ahhh, ain't america great.

[JoeyT]

46. A victory lap.

Because as far as they and everyone else is concerned, until the federal government bucks up and does something about them, they've won. Yeah, the FBI is investigating, we'll see if anything comes of it, or of this.

[Crowman1979]

47. Can these idiots please drive their ATVs across an atomic bomb test site?

The whole excessive radiation at the site is just a gubment lie, right?

[frylock]

48. i'm going to assume that nobody was pepper sprayed, or tased..

kicked to the ground, and beaten within an inch of their lives. these fuckheads will continue to become emboldened, and then the feds will have no choice but to come down, hard and swift.

[Taitertots]

51. Everyone who championed inaction and pacification. Thanks. Your policies caused this.

This will never stop until it is stopped by the government.

[ffr]

53. Lame! Reminds me of Southpark's HD riders episode

Call or write your elected officials and voice your protest to the destruction of American landmarks or Yellowstone and Yosemite get it next.

[KansDem]

56. You can't fool me! Those aren't Bundy militia members!!!

The video clearly shows the women riding behind the men!

[AnneD]

57. This is just a friendly reminder.....

Mexico and the Spanish were unable to successfully colonize the Southwest and plains because of the Indian tribes. In fact, it took the US government 50 years to subdue the Indians. Going though these sacred area and tearing them up is going to land them in hot water with some of these tribes. In other words, translated so you can understand........



Get the hell off my lawn.

[Quixote1818]

60. Agree, and had it not been for disease killing off 90% of the natives

our history would have probably been very different. http://www.cracked.com/article_19864_6-ridiculous-lies-you-believe-about-founding-america.html

[AnneD]

61. Thanks for the great article...

I will forward it to some of my friends. We often speculate about the way things could have easily turned out differently-and many time it was just some luck that prevented those early settlements from annihilation. My ancestors were Cherokee and their range was on the east cost from the now Carolinas to Florida and inland to Georgia, Tennessee, and Mississippi. Hell they even greeted De Soto on his way to the lost Fountain of Youth (even we had enough sense not to mess with the Seminoles-anyone living in a swamp has got to be crazy). By the time the pilgrims landed, it was all up and down the coast about the new comers. And now we reside in a tiny patch of Oklahoma.

Navajo were the first Indians to kick some Spanish ass. I would not go tear assing through their lands. They might hire themselves a good Cherokee lawyer. We have legal experience dealing with this government.

59. Wonder if this are the same folks:
