Cliven Bundy: Minority Groups Are 'Against Us' (said today @ news conference)

CAITLIN MACNEAL – APRIL 24, 2014, 5:16 PM EDT

Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy, before making his comments about "the Negro," spoke about other racial minorities and their lack of support for his cause, according to additional video obtained by the Washington Post.

"Where is our colored brother? Where is our Mexican brother? Where is our Chinese -- where are they?" Bundy said. "They're just as much American as we are, and they're not with us. If they're not with us, they're going to be against us."

Bundy noted that he "hardly ever" saw a black person until he was a teenager, and was surrounded by only white people during the press conference he was holding, according to the Post.

He then launched into a story about when he was working in Los Angeles during the Watts Riots in 1965.

I used to say that Mitt Romney or John McCain or any republican running against Obama could line up little infant babies and shoot them in the head, one at a time, on live tv, then come up with some reason why he had to do that, and the vast majority of the rightwing moron jackasses would have still voted for them for President so as to NOT vote for Obama.

I truly believe that.

Every time he opens his filthy sewer, shit comes jetting out, infecting our body-politic with the kind of impenetrable ignorance more usually associated with the denizens of Pointland...

Another of the Temple Square followers who believes in the Revelation of the great White Hope is to ride in and save our Constitution from all of us Genitals. Talk about a total fuck up.

Whole shopping stores and eating establishments all to himself, with those "coloreds" kept in their place.

Sad.
