A fundamental principal of the law is it should be equally applied in both pain and pleasure and not respective of person...the law applies the same to king and commoner. . (Yea right)
And if there is any room for exceptions who would have the longest first right to claim it?..who should be first in line?
However the people at the top of the political food chain made sure the crap rolled down hill towards the people at the the bottom of the political food chain.
And Bundy, if you look at who would have first right of claim of an exception, being there the longest..seem to have gotten the last because he is on the bottom of the political food chain.
And if to emphasize the point that he Bundy is on bottom politically (not legally) when he claim top position based on time on the land..the political top stomp on him to show he is on the political bottom
Yep, and that is exactly what causes these Sagebrush Rebellions, because the bottom is always the little local guys, while the politically well connected urban elite hatch schemes to screw us over and make money doing it.
They’re just cleaning out the riff raff to keep their vacation hideaways in pristine nature.
