Exactly. It’s either part of Texas or part of Oklahoma, it is not part of the BLM.
River movements happen all the time on state boundaries and they are worked out by the courts. I know this because Iowa has three rivers that form it’s boundaries and they have won court cases when the river shifted.
What legal right does the BLM have if there is no federal lands in question here?
“How can BLM come in and say, “Hey, this isn’t yours.”
Easy they come in with heavily armed goons and say “hey this isn’t yours”.
Having a lot of "smaller" issues makes it harder for the people focus on them, and pull themselves away from the Idiot Box (TV) and their favorite show.
Having a major event, would cause a lot more people to sit up and possibly rally. Just look at the overwhelming sense of unity that happened on 9/11. It take a week or so for some to resort back to their brain dead ways, but I'm sure they'd probably prefer to not any sense of unity at all.
Also, smaller events are easier to make it seem like it is just a fringe element.
I'm guessing that the feds claim the shore line of any navigable body of water. And once claimed they do not give up the claim even if the shore line moves. Below is the money quote from the article.
"Originally, here the river was out there where it is now and it eroded and accreted up to here, and then it eroded and accreted back. Well, their interpretation is that it eroded up to here but avulsed back. So when you listen to them it is always erosion to the south because the property line follows it then, but it’s always avulsion when it goes north. So the boundary can move south but it can never move back north," said Henderson."
I know Iowa is bordered by the Missouri, Missisippi, and Des Moines. The Army Core of Engineers is in charge of the lock and dam systems, and barge navigation, but the states own the territory.
Sounds like the BLM is doing is making a claim on some 30 year old court case, not an Act of Congress or any law passed thereby. Their mission is not the land acquisition business, it’s the land management business. They are beyond their mission: rogue, lawless, predatory, and terroristic. However, I’m sure the courts will side with them.
They actively want Middle Americans to kill other Middle Americans.
Well perhaps someone can explain on what basis the BLM is claiming the land. I took my best shot, sadly it appears I was off target. lol
I think you’re right. Rivers are already public, but they want to control the land access to rivers....water.
Interesting
Another possibility is that they just want to take what they think they can get away with taking.
They would love a crisis
Yes, then they could crack down. The bottom-up, top-down strategy.
Both of your eyes are wide open! Not many see the truth for what it is.
This has been a problem on the Mississippi forever. There are islands that jump from one state to the other as the current changes.
But this is the first time that I know of that the BLM is involved. The feds’ involvement is all part of Agenda 21.
The BLM is poking a bear when they mess with Texas.
They have Abrams tanks and Apache helicopters and aren't afraid to use them against citizens.
Think about Waco.
“Don’t Mess With Texas!”
What goes with BLM is that the Chicoms are now calling in all the debt money that Obama and his minions/enablers were able to draw on to become millionaires. These Chinese entrepreneurs are very anxious to get land in the USA and there are plenty of so called citizens willing to shill for them. There needs to be a very deep look at the likes of Las Vegas money people who some like Addelson are willing to sell out the USA. This story is like an iceberg.
