When there are illegal and nefarious activities abounding, there is a wise adage that says to “follow the money.” That is often a reasonable path to discover the true motive for an action or event that may seem to defy a line of clear logic. One of the most glaring examples is the out-of-proportion bullying by the Bureau of Land Management (BLM) as it has sent huge forces of armed federal agents to force farmers and ranchers off of remote parcels of land in Nevada and Oregon.
In the case of Cliven Bundy, the agency started grabbing cattle from the rancher because of a disputed fee for grazing his cattle on “federal land” in Nevada. There is a very clear argument to be made that the federal government is not constitutionally permitted to “own” huge parcels of the United States, which in the case of Nevada amounts to almost 80% of the entire state land mass. But there are no doubt thousands of ranchers also running their cattle on federal land for grazing purposes, and the question arises regarding why the heavy hand of the federal government would come down on this one elderly rancher in Nevada. Just follow the money.
In the protest that blew up in January of this year, the conflict had to do with a trumped up arson charge against two ranchers who had burned some of their ranch to clear weeds to make it more productive. The fire spread to “federal lands,” and though the ranchers extinguished the fire without help, and the land, including the federal land, is now more productive than ever, the government insisted on jailing the two ranchers for five years. The ensuing protest by other ranchers led to the death of one of the rancher leaders caused by federal or state agents, with the video of the death showing that it was simply an execution. Once again, the question is why this was a cause for which the government was willing to murder a citizen? The answer once again is to “follow the money.”

jail these traitors to our constitution.
The land belongs to the people, Federal land is only DC, do a little research and find the truth. AMEN
How do you think our politicians get so rich while in office. If you object, you are either jailed on some trumped up charge or you are executed by givernment agents or you have an ACCIDENT or commit suicide which ever is most believable to the public.
This Reid is a Red traitor. Firing squad for him!
HEY HARRY, I WOULD REECOMEND, THAT YOU DON’T GO NEAR THAT PLACE, THEY SHOOT SNIPER RIFLES!
We need to hang this BASTARD.
Remember the governments policy to remove the native Americans from the plains to accommodate the expansion of the nation? Well we are the natives now and big industry is expanding. To line the pockets of people we elected to represent we the people. They are using our good name in the progress to expand their own wealth. They put Indians in jail! Funny how they don’t know how to produce beef. And don’t care. They all but eradicated the buffalo to subdue and control the tribes. How do you like your beef!? Soon it will be only rich folks who can afford to eat it?
The Feds aren’t supposed to own that land in the first place.
Just looking at him makes you want to beat that$#%&!@*senseless!
Time for the milita to show up again
