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:
F**k the feds govenment and president it’s time for the American people to take back America for what it really stands for land of the free and the home of the brave but we place God before all
Yes!
* Government is selling land to other countries … Stop it ! …thank you Sheriff Department in Utah …
Great job sheriff! God bless stay safe
Connie Brunkhorst Us? Lol…you talk like it happened to you. You have the same illness as BLM activists and you are completely ignorant of worldwide colonial-era politics.
You act like the native tribes were all chummy with each other and that the white man came in and broke up a happy family.
We won this land. We fought for it and we won it the same way that every other nation has ever been established.
Conquests are how things were done in those days. There was no immigration system, no laws that were broken, no people that were robbed.
The same way that the Romans established their empire is the same way that we and everybody else did too.
Like the Romans, North American native tribes fell. Someday, we may fall too.
The spoils go to the victor. That’s how it works. It’s why we have militaries and people who stand at the front lines so that people like you can sit on your laptop and blab about how you were robbed, when you’ve been given every opportunity to thrive.
You need to quit lamenting a past that has less to do with you than a future that has everything to do with you.
Thank You. They should be arrested and charged. Sheriff David Clarke had his say on the BLM. Thanks to both of you.
Its about time
About time.
Go get em Cowboy!! Remember LaVoy was MURDERED by them!!
Connie needs to learn Paleo American history!
