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:
You all are some certifiable loony toons batshit crazy. You need to stop eating those mushrooms you find growing on the compost heap and seek professional help.
Utah for Trump !
Bet Prelwitz is$#%&!@*….and a$#%&!@*
Odd…liberals are the most hypocritical brain dead educated morons on the planet. Scott Prelwitz it’s funny you talk about intimidation at the voting centers when your party is notorious for voter fraud. Guarantee you when I see violence when Trump wins I will put as many of you crybaby liberals as possible in the cross hairs
that Sheriff can do just that. read your constitution it is in there.
one the US government can not by law own anything, the US government is taking the land so when the$#%&!@*hits the fan they can sell it to pay off our debt washington ran up. the State is the only government entity that can by law own the land. States right under the constitution. read your constitution it is in there.
That’s the cold hard truth that are secretly as they can setting up to grab large amounts of money land and anything of value that’s why the fight to keep us out of the Bahamian banking system where our money is out of there grab
The BLM in the article refers to the Bureau of land management. Not the Black lives matter group.
They are both criminal entities and domestic terrorists.
In this case, there is little difference.
Scott Prelwitz. One of the first indicators of someone of limited mental resources, is they can’t either listen to good counsel or think they are so incredibly bright they have the most cogent beliefs. It’s a pity, for you that you fall into both categories look at the more educated, worldly people on this site. You have a plethora of people surrounding you and you close your eyes and cover your ears. I’ve seen a lot, been many many places…but I consider myself blessed that these ladies and gentlemen give me free education.
GOOD FOR HIM
