Racist cattle rustler, impressionist historian and de facto warlord Cliven Bundy emailed his faithful disciples this afternoon to inform them that even though the federal government is evil and terrible, they won't be suing the feds for not shooting him, because of some incoherent reasons:

On the heels of Bundy's new avocations as a defiant commander of armed wahoos and a purveyor of error-ridden historical blather on YouTube, his announcement not to antagonize the Bureau of Land Management seems a bit surprising. "The Bundy family has been approached many times by well known, highly effective lawyers from all over the country offering their services free of charge," the family's letter to supporters reads. "This case, they say; 'has the makings of greatness'. The crimes and civil rights violations committed by the BLM are a lawyers [sic] playground."

Nevertheless, the man behind The Shot Heard Round Nevada has decided not to sue because, apparently, he believes people are fallible, and also because they expect the state governor and local sheriff to get off their fallible asses and do something.

What that something is isn't exactly clear from the letter, pasted below. But the Bundys hint that they're starting some kind of a legal fund/organization to hold politicians accountable to the PEOPLE, you know, in some way other than an election or a campaign contribution.

Hopefully guns won't be involved, although it may take some effort to convince some of Bundy's Praetorian Guards to lay down their arms. Like, maybe they'll need some money, for starters.
