Wasn't this guy offered several million dollars for the property?

"This guy" is digging four catfish ponds for future community use. The county takes fill out for $1 per yard. They take several thousand yards out a week from his 160 acres. Do the math, if you're capable.

And no he wasn't offered "several million". TonyWojo and I visited him personally and the highest offer he received was 1.2 million. We saw the paperwork.

Any other useless, unhelpful or loaded questions?

I think this guy is just to the age to be a thorn in the strong arming govt. He is old and will be sypathized with because of his plight.

A: Maybe he is an old coot with brains willing to be a martyr for freedom...

B: Maybe he is confused by our society these days that govt is god and you shouldnt look at her wrong???

I would go A. Though, I would pack up and collect that cash and hand a large portion to a charity who believes 100% of the Bible. That would just be my poke at them for messing with me.

So he has been offered $1.2M for the property? And his child lives in squalor?

The pity party just ended.

SNORK! From now on, my mental image of AppyPappy is indelibly associated with the voice of a Barbie Doll ("Math is hard...").

"Any other useless, unhelpful or loaded questions?"

The article states that he was offered 5 million dollars. Why don't you read the article before laying into people.
