Bundy on the radio said he was paying - or wanted to pay - grazing rights to the local government, not the BLM. But other information I heard I thought indicated that this is Bundy’s land. So wonder how the BLM got involved?
See post #22
Ranchers can pay grazing fees to use national forests and BLM lands. The fee is a little less than $1.50 per head per month there, if I remember correctly. But that’s probably not the real issue.

Compare that to the story that very few have wanted to talk about in political circles.
