That's the point, Silly Goose.
Power can be projected both ways.
It looks like the BLT SWAT boys got all dressed up for nothing. No “hut, hut, huts” this time boys. You can go back to polishing your bullets now.
How many more hours before SPLC is sending out fund-raising letters citing Bundy, et al. as dangerous racists, xenophobes, homophobes . . . .
Great news! Mr. Bundy did something more people should be brave enough to do.
Soooo mysterious the lightning-fast behavioral change occaisioned by injecting the name Harry Reid into the equation, eh?
Hey:
I’m SURE it has nothing to do with the Mid-terms..!!!
Right...?
What's Mr. Roger Taylor's contact information?
Are we sure he's in compliance?
So the way I understand it is that his family was using the land for many years before the feds got concerned about this tortoise.
They decide it’s endangered so then they start fining him? If that’s the case, the feds can do this to any of us. They can ruin our businesses and take our property. All they have to do is decide a rat, mouse, snail, or turtle is endangered. They can then start fining us and drive us out of home and/or business? That’s crazy.
The Federal government never retreats. Anyone who thinks they are through with this is an idiot.

Backdown Comes Hours After Reid/China Land Grab Report...

We can thank those FReepers who did their homework to help the Bundys. And we can also thank Alex Jones and his organization for publishing that research.
To me it seems like we dodged a bullet again. The first being America getting publicly involved in Syria helping out the Muslim Brotherhood. John F’ing Kerry screwed that one up all by himself.
How many times will that be repeated by employees of the MSM for ever and ever?
I forgive the man -- even if there is a legitimate reason for his paying the federal government.
His contribution to America is hundreds of times more valuable.. though not quite equal to the dollars spent on the Obamas' parties, vacations, weekend travels . . . .
Bookmarked.
How many cows died at the hands of the BLM and are they going to pay for them —
Test, test, 1-2-3, Test, test. Can you hear me? Test, test.
There is no mention of Harry Reid and his wanting to clear the land of cattle so that he and his son can proceed with plans for building a solar plant with the Chinese. In that regard the article is far from being complete.
The Federal government was in violation of the Constitution because they never ceeded title to 86% of the land comprising Nevada when it became a state.
“The United States government owns and has broad authority to regulate federal lands in Nevada,” the BLM arrogantly insists. “In response to challenges of federal ownership of the lands in Nevada, the 9th circuit held that the federal government owned all federal lands in Nevada, and that those lands did not pass to the state upon statehood.”
This is in direct conflict with Article 1, Section 8, Clause 17 of the Constitution.
Just curious:
Had anyone else found/posted this notice I came across in the Federal Register?

It would be informative to see just how many Nevada ranchers have been driven off their land by the BLM - EPA.
I heard on the Mark Levin show a night or two ago that the tortoises they are so concerned about are actually thriving - so much so that they are euthanizing them in the protected areas that have been set aside for them. Also, he said they have existed with the cattle for many years with no ill effect. I have not heard that reported anywhere else. The real story, of course, is Harry Reid, his son and the solar farms the Chinese want to build on that land - the new head of the BLM Nevada - a Reid donor. Additionally, as someone here posted a few days ago, why does the Fed. Government own sooooo much of the territory of the western U.S.? It looks like a third of the entire U.S. if not more!
I believe Erkl is very angry and frustrated at this. When a tyke is angry and frustrated, it lashes out. I expect Erkl will lash out very soon.
