TheBlaze – by Jason HowertonFormer Arizona Sheriff Richard Mack revealed on Monday that he and other organizers who traveled to Clark County, Nev., to support Cliven Bundy during his land dispute with the feds planned to put women on the front lines in case the “rogue federal officers” started shooting.
Mack made the chilling revelation on Fox News’ “The Real Story” Monday, two days after the tense standoff between Bundy and the federal government came to a peaceful end.
“We were actually strategizing to put all the women up at the front,” he said. “If they are going to start shooting, it’s going to be women that are going to be televised all across the world getting shot by these rogue federal officers.”
Watch the clip below:
Mack apparently identifies with the Tea Party and claims to have spoken at numerous rallies. He also appeared on MSNBC’s “Hardball” with host Chris Matthews to promote the movement.
Mack was elected as Graham County sheriff in 1988 and he served two terms until 1997. The former sheriff also reportedly fought against the so-called “Brady Bill,” a 1993 gun control law that instituted federal background checks on firearms purchasers in the United States.
“Mack has been a consultant on numerous cases regarding police abuse, brutality, and other misconduct by public officials. He has joined with other members of the law enforcement community to speak out in favor of drug policy reform,” according to his website.
The fight between Bundy and the Bureau of Land Management widened into a debate about states’ rights and federal land-use policy. Bundy does not recognize federal authority on land he insists belongs to Nevada.
On Saturday, the bureau released about 400 head of cattle it had seized from Bundy back to him only hours after announcing a premature halt to the roundup due to safety concerns. The operation, expected to take up to a month, ended after only a week.
The cattle were freed after hundreds of states’ rights protesters, some of them armed militia members, showed up at corrals outside Mesquite to demand the animals’ release. Las Vegas Police Lt. Dan Zehnder told The Associated Press that Clark County Sheriff Doug Gillespie was able to negotiate a resolution after talking with Bundy.

Holy Chit!!
Wow, sounds like Mack doesn’t like women, and this is his chance to take his anger out. He and AJ utilize same strategies, how could this be?
Is that right, Sheriff Mack? Next thing you know, he’ll be turning children into human shields!
My next question: are you just another Israel-firster in disguise who agrees with their genocide of Palestinians?
Boy you had me fooled!
Sheriff Mack is a hero. This article was written by Glenn Becks team. There is a little rift here, Glenn Beck only goes so far with the Constitution and then he stops. Sheriff Macks idea was to make these weasel bastards think before they shoot. Tell ya what, being raised on ranches all my life-what these cowards did is unacceptable any way shape or form. I would have been on the front line also. Cowgirls don’t get scared*** they get pissed.
That’s not what Sheriff Mack said. The Blaze is spinning Sheriff Mack’s words. Here is Sheriff Mack’s speech today and you can hear the comment he made regarding the women leading the way. His speech begins at 01:01:05 in this video.

@ tina and Cathleen – this sheriff Mack is still a LEO and I believe that they are untrustworthy.
I do not believe that he said that either however I wouldn`t put it past him to be thinking that or something else just as devious – that is just how a cop/leo thinks, they cannot be trusted no matter what – they sold their soul by being a damned LEO/cop.
No further comment regarding this thread except this … I don’t believe there will ever be any peace in this world … too many people thinking in too many different dimensions to ever come together as one.

Cathleen, don’t loose heart. Christ said “Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. John 14:27.
Blessed is the nation whos God is the Lord.
May we clean our own country, and become again a beacon of light to the world, and perhaps inspire others to the same.
America is a War Zone; nobody’s immune now. There will be events where Women and Men patriots are going to be killed by very ruthless psychopaths. Get used to it. If one doesn’t like the strategies and tactics needed to wake up the masses (to see how psychotic these fascist police are), then stay indoors and wait for your door to get smashed down.
We’re ALL in it now, BIG TIME. This is no drill.
Here the Sheriff’s direct comment addressing women on the front line.

There ya got it at the 5:25 mark.
Ammon Bundy just said on Rense Radio interview it was the women’s idea to clasp hands and take the lead on the front line … for whatever THAT is worth.

Yea Cathleen, it seems like the women have more balls than most men? have out there I hate to say.
