Protecting property has become a full time job in socialist America and people will die.

Rockwood voluntarily showed local police around his property

NEVER, never ever allow police to inspect anything without a valid warrant specifically covering the physical address they wish to inspect. NEVER, NEVER, NEVER.

"Get a frigging warrant if it means so much to you. I'll wait here. Your boys can get the hell off my property until you show back up with it."

The whole description sounds fabricated.

Oathkeepers - that should have tipped you off.

It's a money-making scheme for Stewart Rhodes.

Cops are not your friend when they want to look around. You are 100 percent dead on target! Always ask for a warrant and call your lawyer while the warrant is being drawn up

Sounds a lot like only one side of the story

The socialist government isn’t talking.

——.unlicensed working dogs...——

In lots of cities you are supposed to microchip and register your dog...

Kind of doubt that is the case in rural NY...

Sounds like the “oathkeepers” failed in their oath?

Most states require your dog be licensed. So, they have a cattle dog, or a sheep dog, and it isn’t licensed.

Their “oath” is only to not follow unconstitutional orders.

Not much of a help. If they really wanted to protect against “domestic enemies” to the constitution, we’d actually see some action, but since they’re probably friends w/other law enforcement members, this is never going to happen.

Sounds like a dirtball who was too lazy to be operating a farm (or ranch). In my opinion.

So a dog has to be registered but your illegal alien neighbour does not?

Oh, the horror! ;-)

My friends used to sell raw milk. Well, it’s illegal to sell raw milk so they sold “shares” in the cow. The stuff the FDA does to try to shut those places down would be comical if they were not so serious. It’s almost as bad as the first ten minutes of Inglorious Basterds.

Our government is NOT our friend. They are the zookeepers and we are the animals.

“Unfortunately, Rockwood voluntarily showed local police around his property, “

Never, ever do this. The correct response is “do you have a warrant?” If they don’t its “get off my property immediately.”

You touch on why I left the culture of Seattle (where I lived for 45 years) for a small farm in rural, central KY. In Seattle you can’t even build a 6x6 shed without a permit (IIRC) or clear the blackberries off your property in King county without a permit if you have over five acres.

I have 32 acres now and I can build a HOUSE without a permit if I so choose and can get the money. And I can hunt on my own land without a permit!

Just getting the government off my back was a life changer, if only in perception.

As a rather delightful English fellow once said to me, concerning government (I wish I could type in a Cockney accent): “Tell the truth to those people and they’ll tyke ya’ to the cleaners!” (In the original it was more like the “clyners”.)

“Oathkeepers” attack profile at public meetings, and their disgraceful conduct at the Bundy Ranch standoff last year has soured me on ever listening to their sales pitch again.
