The movement against the BLM and Forestry Service western lands takeover continues to build, with the aftermath of the Malheur National Wildlife Refuge demonstration and the slaying of rancher LaVoy Finicum by federal agents serving as a rallying point for those who believe the federal government has grown too big and powerful, particularly in the western states. Don’t miss the video included later in the article.
The compliant media has circled the wagons to declare the demonstrators were radical, right-wing constitutionalists, as if the U.S. Constitution can be protected and promoted too much.
Somehow, those who dismiss the ranchers and their supporters in the western states can’t see that the government, which “owns” over 50 percent of the land in eleven western states, is much more interested in power and control, and much more committed to radical environmentalists than to farmers and ranchers trying to make a living on the land that, like as not, has been a family pursuit and way of life for generations.
To put a finer point on the issue, mere weeks after the Malheur protesters were arrested and the refuge cleared, President Obama declared three more parcels of land in California as federal land, with little or no future access granted to mere citizens of the state. And by parcels, I mean almost 2 million acres that are now set aside as an offering to the Sierra Club and their ilk, with no compensation offered to California for the taking.
Federal government supporters are painting protesters as lawless cowboys, ignoring the fact that the Constitution prohibits the federal government from owning more than a ten square mile plot in Washington D.C., and areas for forts and military installations that require state approval to acquire.
Watch as the Sheriff fights back in video on the next page:
Claire, you’re an idiot! It’s because of dumb$#%&!@*liberals like yourself that we’re in the situation that we’re in! You can only wish you had the courage that those men and women showed by standing up to these tyrants! Why don’t you do a bit of research on why the government wants the land before you open your mouth. Please do us a favor and move to another country. Thanks.

It was PURCHASED from other countries, genius! Not the same thing!
Something is going to have to change real soon either it’s the government or America itself
we will pray for you all!!( to the real GOD)
If you buy it you own it. There were not any States in the areas purchased by The Federal Government. And name calling is not making legitimate points.
Bad$#%&!@*sheriff!!!
Agreed, Gary! Unfortunately, i think things will have to get worse before they can start to get better. When things start to get a whole lot less comfortable, i believe people will have no choice but to get off of their sofas and fight to restore our freedom. Then whoever is left standing can start to rebuild. It can’t happen soon enough for me!
Valerie, libtards don’t state facts or ACTUAL statistics! They just make$#%&!@*up. Kind of like all of Bernie Sanders “plans”. Lol
Oriam, read the old testament. Then we’ll see if there is a time and place for violence…
