This guy is just a rancher. Nothing more, nothing less. And how the hell the subject of "black people" ever came up should give you a clue as to what the media was doing...they were trying to play "got ya" with him.

And he's too naive to understand it. Probably was basking in all the attention. And instead of just shutting the fuck up...he kept on talking.

Hell, if I put you in front of a microphone and keep asking questions that could lead to a controversial statement...sooner or later you're going to say SOMETHING that comes out bad.

This guy should have realized that, and shut his mouth. There was zero reason to be asked a question about blacks, and zero reason to give one. It was just the media looking for a sensational story.

Now the idiot will have every politician that took his side running from him as fast as they can for political reasons.
And THEN, the govt. can finish the job they started.

Smart move by the govt.
Dumb move by this rancher.

And big govt. wins again!

And all of you who just love the giant bureaucracy can now rejoice! And us poor stupid libertarians with all of our nonsense about something called freedom can just suck it.
