WAY TO GO FREE REPUBLIC
WOULD HAVE BEEN DOWN THE RABBITHOLE IF NOT FOR FREE REPUBLIC
I AM SO IMPRESSED
“Whether the rancher paid his fees or not is no longer the issue. FWIW I wish a wealthy individual would step up and pay it for him. Just to settle things down.”.
Good thought BUT, if someone DID pay the fee it would only mean that they are giving in to the feds. I am 100% behind Bundy. There are MILLIONS of other acres out west that the BLM has “laid claim” to and no one has, or can stop them. This is only ONE example.
While I agree there needs to be “calm” brought to this issue, the ONE PERSON who COULD but WILL NOT call for “calm” is off to another fund raiser, vacation or golf game. He does not WANT calm, he wants civil unrest and the bad part of that is someone, INCLUDING federal employees may wind up dead. Not a good thing for either side.
