Yep, they did win.
The govt. came in here and started a problem (like they always do in these kinds of situations) where there was none.
They just picked the wrong state to try it in. The original ranchers in Nevada aren't like some of the folks out East who just roll over when they are told to.
The govt. picked the wrong state, and the wrong group of people to try and bully around.
I think that this example (just like the uprising in Egypt, Libya, and Syria) disproves some people who say that citizens just can't stand up to the big bad govt.
To borrow something from Pres. Obama: "YES WE CAN!"
