1993 is when Bundy stopped paying the BLM for his grazing permit. He did not object to BLM ownership from the 50s until 1993.
That is not framing. Bundy was paid up on his grazing permit thru February 28, 1993. That is a fact. Period.
All I know here is you always find a way to apologize for jack-boots. Always.
Wondering where you read that? The article says he paid Clark County grazing fees until ‘93?? Says he does not have a problem paying the people of his state... I know here in Arizona, land that used to be posted as state trust land back when I moved here is now posted as BLM land 30 years later... and usage rules have changed too. With the feds managing state lands from Washington, we end up with huge losses from wildfires now because land can not be touched. You hear about the 19 firefighters we lost?? They were fighting a fire on BLM land... Then OSHA (another federal agency) fines the department for not fighting it correctly and letting the firefighters die... That’s our government logic for you.
This guys family has been ranching the land for 140 years, not up on my history but when did Nevada become a state?? Not sure if they beat us by 40 years or not, but I think that was still a territory when his family started ranching it... should be his by the old homestead act it seems like to me.
I mentioned it on another post, but if the family had set up a mine on this land 140 years ago and produced enough gold or silver from the land, it would have been a patented mine and he would have owned the property outright... 140 years of cattle ranching has to equal a damn large sum of gold... I don’t see a whole lot of difference here... Just curious, Anybody know how much land the Feds control in the south or on the east coast??
