Its not only NBC- but here is the article from the Washington Post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/blogs/post-politics/wp/2014/04/24/cliven-bundy-on-blacks-are-they-better-off-as-slaves/

and here is the picture from the WP:


I have to agree with some of the commenters that those armed supporters look like skinheads/neo nazi's right down to the neck tattoo... And that is what is being reported to our local law enforcement/Sheriff of what was the type armed supporters that showed up to start their own little war... That is also my personal perception of much of what has tried to use the Tea Party as a place to gain legitimacy by crawling in bed with them...

Even most of his past supporters on the ranch websites- (and politicians ) are recognizing this fellow for the dangerous rightwingernut extremist idiot he is...


Some lawmakers have offered statements supportive of Bundy. One of them, Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nev.), quickly distanced himself. A Heller spokeswoman told the Times that the senator "completely disagrees with Mr. Bundy’s appalling and racist statements, and condemns them in the most strenuous way.”

Update 9:59 a.m.: Here's a comment from Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.), who has also been supportive of Bundy's cause: "His remarks on race are offensive and I wholeheartedly disagree with him."

Bundy's question was completely legitimate and thought provoking.

That is, if, in fact, Bundy did weigh into this.

Are blacks better off now than when they were slaves?

Bundy was asked to clarify his earlier statement:
“That’s exactly what I said. I said I’m wondering if they’re better off under government subsidy, and their young women are having the abortions and their young men are in jail, and their older women and their children are standing, sitting out on the cement porch without nothing to do, you know, I’m wondering: Are they happier now under this government subsidy system than they were when they were slaves, and they was able to have their family structure together, and the chickens and garden, and the people had something to do? And so, in my mind I’m wondering, are they better off being slaves, in that sense, or better off being slaves to the United States government, in the sense of the subsidies. I’m wondering. That’s what. And the statement was right. I am wondering.”

Speaking the truth in this country sure gets a lot of liars attention. Wonder why 60+ percent of the prison population is black? They got nothing else to do.

Republicans Blast Nevada Rancher for Failing to Use Commonly Accepted Racial Code Words

WASHINGTON – Republican politicians today blasted Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy for making flagrantly racist remarks instead of employing the subtler racial code words the G.O.P. has been using for decades. “We Republicans have worked long and hard to develop insidious racial code words like ‘entitlement society’ and ‘personal responsibility,’” said Sen. Rand Paul, (R-Kentucky). “There is no excuse for offensive racist comments like the ones Cliven Bundy made when there are so many subtler ways of making the exact same point.” Fox News also blasted the rancher, saying in a statement, “Clive Bundy’s outrageous racist remarks undermine decades of progress in our effort to come up with cleverer ways of saying the same things.”

or, ex military/LEO. Many of the supporters are oathkeepers. You know OT, those that took an oath to uphold the Constitution, like you did.
