"...my point was that the government could at any time step in and stop this once and for all."I am going to need an updated memo on where we stand on the issue of more government, or less government.
This is in the Courts, where it belongs, leave it alone.

How are they attacking individuals? Are they attempting to harrass them or buy them out? They've told you that they have plenty of fish to put on the endangered list if the court cases go against them? That's so unscrupulous. Oh, I forgot, Communism 101, "the ends justify the means." I'm very sorry you have to go through this.

I will communicate responses to your questions via private email. It's sensitive stuff and will also "end up in the courts".
Thanks for putting HUMANS first.

"Citizen vs citizen". Citizens "just doing their jobs"...like the armed Citizens: Feds "just doing their jobs"...like the Citizens of Germany "just doing their jobs" against the Jews. Each citizen must be individually responsible for determining when just doing their jobs becomes morally, ethically, and --the right thing to do--. I watched two Feds walk off their jobs at the headgates because they didn't feel the government was right in their actions. They probably lost very lucrative jobs, but they were more concerned with personal issues against fellow mankind, than financial gain........
.....and this is all about financial gain!

Thank you for re-posting or Calvary picture. It's a proud picture of our flag flying in a summer breeze being supported by people who know how to care for our land, our livestock, our crops, ... and can do it all quietly and unassuming...just taking care of business.
I don't believe that most people living in the concrete jungles have any idea what makes this lifestyle so appealing to so many. The visiting with the mailperson at the mailbox for 10-15 minutes, fighting the bull thistle out of your pasture, the sound of a hay baler at 2:00 AM, checking calves after a heavy snowfall...I could go on and on. But that really doesn't matter. They will continue to open their plastic covered meat and pop it in the microwave, not even aware that it could well have come from a cow that was giving birth...calf got stuck, so they killed and butchered her with the calf still inside -- financial decision. Graphic? Yes, but I know how my beef was raised, butchered, cleaned, wrapped, and frozen...and I like knowing it isn't full of chemicals and processed in some foreign facility (have you seen some of them). I don't have to use chemicals to keep my cattle healthy...they are raised in a healthy environment..I don't have to use massive amounts of chemical nutritional supplements...they eat healthy, fresh pasture grass, not on some dry lot in little pens so crammed together that if one gets sick, all get sick...so more chemicals.
Look at your average 13 year old girl...were you that developed at her age? No...it's the growth hormones in your meats that are being transferred to us.
My point: Rural America and the role it plays in keeping America healthy and strong is vital to our continued success as an independent nation. We must not rely on foreign foods, clothing, etc., or it will come back to haunt us. Good tasting, nutritional foods can only come from the source. Wipe out Rural America and the foundation of our security and we're lost. Doesn't anyone care about that anymore?

If you guys consider yourselves help on this issue, consider yourselves fired! Redrock came to the headgates and spent a few days helping with the cause. I don't recall seeing either one of you there. Your noise is weak and uncalled for in attacking the man, come out and visit the headgate and perhaps you will relize it's nothing like you might think it is.
Rant off>
Meanwhile I will rest my case and recommend that we all pay attention to Goddess50 because she truely is, on this issue.
