Black Bundy Bodyguard: “He’s Not a Racist… I Would Take a Bullet For That Man”
Cliven Bundy bodyguard Jason Bullock told CNN yesterday,
“Mr. Bundy is not a racist… I’d take a bullet for the man.”
One of the supporters serving as a bodyguard for Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy during his standoff with federal authorities — and who also happens to be black — said he would still “take a bullet for” Bundy after the rancher made racially inflammatory comments.
CNN’s Dan Simon noticed Jason Bullock, a six-year Army veteran who serves as one of Bundy’s bodyguards, hanging around the at the Nevada ranch. Simon asked Bullock whether he found Bundy’s remarks about blacks and slavery offensive.
“Mr. Bundy is not a racist,” he told CNN. “Ever since I’ve been here, he’s treated me with nothing but hospitality. He’s pretty much treating me just like his own family.”
“I would take a bullet for that man if need be. I look up to him just like I do my own grandfather,” he added. “I believe in his cause and after having met Mr. Bundy a few times, I have a really good feel about him and I’m a pretty good judge of character.”
Wild Thing’s comment……….
I am not going to post a lot of posts on this, people saying Bundy is a racist has already been blown way out of proportion and sadly by too many Republicans jumping on the band wagon. I just wanted to share what this man said since he works with and knows Bundy personally. That to me carries more weight then what others say.
I listened to Bundy’s interview and what he really said in the context he said it in and it was nothing like what was reported in the media. Who really disapointed me in this whole matter is Lt.Col. Allen West who wrote: “Sir, your words were offensive to me and the proud legacy of my family. There is no dignity in purposeful dependence on the government for sustenance, but there is also no INdignity comparable to slavery.”
Unfortunate, Col West listened to what the media said and their edited clips instead of listening to the interview. If anyone should know what the media does to those the don’t like, it should be him. West himself has railed against how the Democrats have kept Blacks in economic bondage which is exactly what Bundy did but did it in a way that some don’t agree with.
