He is entitled to his own personal opinions and way of expressing them. It should have nothing to do with the issue of his ranch and the BLM.

That's RIGHT. It not only shouldn't have anything to do with the persecution he's endured from the Federal Government, it also DOESN'T have anything to do with it. The question you seem to refuse to address however is, "WHY did HE bring up race as an issue in his case?"

WELL?

I mean you're accusing me of being racist, when I'm not the one that brought up the issue. HE did. When it has nothing to do with why he's being persecuted by the Federal Government.

"WHY did HE bring up race as an issue in his case?"

He didn't connect the two except that government is not a benign influence in both cases.
