For better or worse, the Federal Government is the agent that we the public entrust to protect and manage our assets, including the land we bought from Mexico.
If you look at it that way, it's Bundy's vs the Greater Public. As part of the Greater Public, I'm okay with charging grazing rights. I'm even okay with re-purposing land. I'm okay with protecting some endangered species too.
I am not okay with BLM stealing a man’s land through cutting off his water rights by ending grazing rights contracted through an agreement for BLM to maintain the land and they quit maintain the land, so he tried to pay the county and maintained the land himself. The BLM broke the grazing contract by not fulfilling it’s requirements, period. Then lying about an endangered species the same agency BLM was killing themselves a year ago. Enough said.
