FRONTLINE goes contained in the battle between the Bundy ranching household within the West and the federal authorities, inspecting how a simmering struggle over land in Nevada and Oregon grew to become lethal and invigorated a wider armed militia motion. What started as one household’s dispute with the federal government over grazing charges reinvigorated a nationwide motion of self-styled militias and “Patriots.” They name themselves Oath Keepers, Constitutional Sheriffs, Three Percenters, sovereign residents and whereas every group has its personal trigger, they rally beneath the identical banner: opposition to what they see as federal overreach.
