That’s a great point too. If we’re the only ones being bound by the constitution then it becomes a suicide pact. Does it really matter how justified the Bundy’s are? They’re fighting the government. The fact is the feds are taking people’s land and livelihood away and enriching themselves and their donors.
It’s not about the money. It’s about all the stuff.
Here’s an important article on how Reid helped convicted briber Harvey Whittemore regarding a power corridor and tortoise right at Coyote Springs. This is leverage to get Reid to move on BLM.

Show me his proof of ownership. Even his family claims it's not his land, and that he's tried to pay the State of Nevada for the fees owed to the fedgov. He does own some land, but the land he's grazing on, that the feds are removing the cattle from, is not his land.
I’ve never said I thought there was a wax dummy in a coffin. I said that what was in the coffin was immaterial to me because there are ways to make it appear like a person is there - but that I brought the subject up because there was EVIDENCE that KITV photoshopped the footage, and because the one known-authentic image did not fit what was in the photoshops. Just like what’s actually in the “Good Morning America” and “Nightline” videos don’t fit what is in the official narrative. Nor does what is in the official reports fit what is in the “official narrative”.
But oh well. Nothing to see here. Only crazy people would care that none of it makes sense.
Evidence doesn’t matter. That’s the lesson to be learned in all of this. At Free Republic evidence does not matter. What matters is if “mainstream people” will think that we’re pointing out evidence that suggests something BATSH!T CRAZY.
IOW, take the posts I’ve put in this thread, remove anything that I put in that let people know I say it sarcastically, put it in the mouth of the leadership here, and you’ve got a pretty good picture of what’s going on.
Anybody wanting to discuss evidence that might suggest something is wrong - REALLY wrong - in America, be careful or you may be labeled batsh!t crazy and told to get a life.
Just want to make sure everybody knows that because there are a LOT of threads on FR that people like ABC would call “batsh!t crazy”, and people who participate in those threads might want to think twice before commenting, or suggesting anything “unapproved” - regardless of what evidence they cite to support their comments.
What hill should we die on?
Dead serious question.
It’s time to make Fed employees not want to go to work in the morning.
Wow, I’ve been to Hoover Dam and I didn’t see the cattle grazing on it. Or near it. I didn’t see them in the marina, either? Maybe they were all using the “needful facilities” at the Visitors Center.
And I get to eat dead cow carcass.
Off the ranch, cattle poop adds nutrients. The improved soil supports the wildlife as well as the cows.
A slightly better nowhere seen only by a very few.
I think you’re mischaracterizing what she said.
Well, you most certainly did, and it's right there in your posting history.
Look, I have no interest in provoking you into a rant (which I see I already may have done). But when you talk about wax dummies in caskets, don't be surprised when you draw reaction to such nuttiness. That's all.
I don’t know. I don’t know that this isn’t the right one. I didn’t know anything about it until today. What a bunch of Jack-boots those fed foot soldiers are! If a bunch of Eric Holder’s people were rioting on unlimited EBT day, there’s no way they’d be treated that way by the feds. If they were, heads would roll.
I agree. Surely someone knows those agents who don’t agree with what they did. The least they could do is unfriend them.
From what I have read he stated so...gonna have to go back and re-read. I suspect, if he thinks so, that he has the right to em’domain.
Nope he dont. Since he held no title/deed, he does not “OWN” that land. But, I got to re-read the thing.
Federal courts, hearing arguments made by federal attorneys representing federal agencies have determined what federal laws and the U.S. Constitution mean and have issued federal orders.
The federal government brought unnecessary firepower to execute a federal order.
Be sure to read Pollard's Lessee v. Hagan, 44 U.S. 3 How. 212 212 (1845) and U.S. v. Gardner, 107 F.3d 1314 (9th Cir. 1997), as well as, always, the U.S. Constitution.
But cow poop isn’t on the sasquatch’s approved menu for desert tortoises.
He may have said it but I haven’t seen or heard it.
The government can do whatever it wants, until somebody stops it.
That’s where we’re at. Sad but true.
Either we figure out a way to stop it, or it will bulldoze right through everything we hold dear.
That’s exactly what the Founders believed. And our totally broken system of accountability has proven them right.
There’s supposed to be a way to stop the government from using our money against us for reasons that aren’t even supported by any factual evidence of need. But the system is broken; unelected bureaucrats can say whatever they want and we the people have no real recourse.
In the end all resistance will be made unlawful, and then we’ll be in a boat we never thought we’d be in. I don’t know if this family is justified or not, but I do believe that the boat they’re in is the same one we’ll all be in soon unless we somehow FORCE the government to obey the Constitution.
Nevada state law requires color of title for adverse possession; the Bundy family would be required to present the legal document that purported to convey title.
Nevada state law also requires that all state and federal taxes have been paid on land on which ownership is claimed by adverse possession, from the point where the claimant (and all predecessors to the claimant) first took possession to the time of any legal action.
