KANAB, Utah (AP) — Cliven Bundy spoke against grazing contracts Friday during a funeral for an Oregon occupation leader who urged ranchers to disavow their contracts with the government.
Supporters and family members of Robert "LaVoy" Finicum gathered Friday in Kanab, Utah to remember the man killed last month during a confrontation with FBI agents and Oregon state troopers.
The Salt Lake Tribune reports that Bundy said the federal government didn't want Finicum to teach others that ranchers' land stewardship gives them rights.
