Those Terrorists in Nevada

Didn't the US take the land from Mexico that is now current day Utah? Doesn't that treaty mean it was federal land to begin with?

The Obama Admin should do an advertising push that tells people never to mix water and electricity together.

Not really...Mexico/Spain drew a map and declared the Utah section as part of their Alta California. Quick, someone name a Mexican settlement or mission that was regularly occupied in the now current state of Utah…. Though I think they had a trail going from Santa Fe to coastal California that cut thru southern Utah.

Neither Spain nor Mexico ever colonized most of the huge territory, however, so effective government control never extended much beyond southern Arizona and coastal California (as far north as Sonoma). Interior areas remained in possession of Native American tribes

No, the US usurped Mexico's vacuous thievery of the land, from the Native Americans, for real...
 
Cliven Bundy arrested in Oregon.

Cliven Bundy, the Nevada rancher who touched off one armed showdown with federal authorities and applauded another started in Oregon by his sons, was arrested late Wednesday at Portland International Airport and faces federal charges related to the 2014 standoff at his ranch.

Bundy, 74, was booked into the downtown Multnomah County jail at 10:54 p.m.

He faces a conspiracy charge to interfere with a federal officer -- the same charge lodged against two of his sons, Ammon and Ryan, for their role in the Jan. 2 takeover of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge in Burns. He also faces weapons charges.

Good.
 
Was Cliven in hiding this whole time? Did they never have a chance till now?
 
So they waited almost 2 years to avoid having to shoot him? That was mighty white of them.
 
Just read that Cliven has requested a court appointed defense attorney. Apparently his government mooching knows no bounds. What a dick.

Probably can't find an attorney that will accept payment in cows.
