I believe this will be fighting words to a lot of Texans.

God bless Texas.

They don’t think think they are above the law. They think they are the law.

The Bureau claims it is not they who are declaring the ownership but that settled case law long declared it to be government land.

The classic liberal mantra. "It's settled. Now shut up."

BLM Public Relations Specialist Paul McGuire agreed to a one-on-one telephone interview with Breitbart Texas after reading the original report published earlier this week. In contrast with the interview with Texas General Land Office Commissioner Jerry Patterson, McGuire expressed much more confidence about the ownership of the land and indicated little, if any, ambiguity about how or why the land should be under federal control. “It’s not the BLM making any such claim as to the status of the land,” McGuire said. “That land was a matter that the courts adjudicated decades ago, going back to the 1920s in fact. The Supreme Court settled the matter as to where the public land in the Red River was. So, BLM is really just proceeding on those earlier court decisions.”

"...and this time, we're bringing tanks."

So the BLM's argument is that they can seize hundreds of thousands of acres of land based on an obscure court decision almost 100 years ago that was never enforced?

Wow.

It was "adjudicated" in 1836, 1845 & 1849 you ill-bred puddle-lapping mongrel of a revenuer.

If they click "go" on this.. hijinks will ensue.

Looks like it’s time for Texans to just go and take claim back from the BLM.

Amen. God bless Texas.
If BLM shows up in Texas, tens of thousands of Texas Patriots will
greet them.

Well past time to be using GPS as part of the plot boundaries. Especially for land near and abutting moving water.

The BLM doesn’t own any of the land. The Fed, in reality based on original intent, manages the land until it is disposed of, and it is intended to be disposed of.

This Obama government needs a good dressing down. They “own” nothing, the people do.

Only hope for this country is their removal. What an arrogant bunch of bastards.

The BLM is a raving band of morons if they think they can push Texas around like this.

As an odd coincidence, I watched the John Wayne movie “Red River” last night on TCM.

My only question is, what's BLM's Harry Reid's angle on this?
Harry Reid is the BLM with his hand picked sock puppet running it.

Start something up in Texas to take the pressure and closer looking off of what he and his family have been up to in Nevada?

Just doesn't make sense to start up in Texas, right now especially, except to use it as a distraction.
Ain't no way the BLM is going to win this and they know it.

“Ours” they say, as if BLM is some autonomous being exclusive of the American people. This is how absurd things have become. They really need to be put out of their miserable existence.

This should be interesting. I truly want to see the girly-man Obama try to square up with Rick Perry.
