How is it propaganda, did you watch the video? The federal government is literally catching their farms on fire and burning their livestock alive and torching their houses. These are the same guys who stood up to the bureau of land management last year. The federal government are acting like a mob

No they aren't. And the video doesn't show anything supporting the Bundy Boy's claims.
Firstly, those "guys starting fires" are firefighters constructing firebreaks (bright clothing is required for their jobs) , not that you can tell that with the shit ass quality camera (funny how it's nice and clear for Bundy boy but terrible for the onsite recording, that should be the first thing that makes you suspicious, item 1). Second, there was not a single fucking dead cow in any of the video, just text overlay claiming there was (suspicious, item 2). Third, no destroyed buildings (item 3).
Finally, the Bundy boys were squatting on Federally owned land for 20 years after their grazing license was not renewed, during which the Beaurau of Land Management didn't bother to arrest, charge, or in any other way even bother the Bundy boys until 2014 at which point the BLM went into the federally owned land (you know, their fucking rightfully owned property) to remove the Bundy boys cattle which were illegally grazing on it, to which the Bundy response was to show up armed and prevent lawful action.
So spare us the bullshit propaganda story about how the big bad gubbment is stealing from honest hard working people and wrongfully imprisoning them, because Bundy is a thief, liar, and a piece of shit.
