Hi. Kit is my brother-in-law, and he really hasn't been hiding in a cave anywhere. But there is very little contact with the "outside world" over in the wilderness, we have no electricity except what is produced by a generator, so no tv, don't even get radio very well over there, so it's a whole different world out there.
Kit has always been a pretty trusting sort of guy, until he has reason to not trust. I think the FS has reached that point, but he still thinks some good can come of this in the long run. I only hope he's right and my cynical ole self is completely wrong, but I've seen the FS in action too many times to believe that it's going to turn out good for him. They put my dad out of the ranching business in 1999, and that's just one case of many of that very thing happening around here. There's something they want out here, and they'll stop at nothing to get it, in my observation.
When they'll chase down a 13 year old kid on horseback, with lights flashing, sirens blaring, and shouting over a loud speaker to stop the horses that are terrified of all the commotion, they won't stop at anything, I think. If they want to see one mad mama, though, all they have to do is lay a hand on my kid or harass him in any way again, and they'll see one mad mama on their doorstep!
The bunch that's out there conducting this rustling party is a bunch of low-life varmints in my openion.
