This problem started because of endangered turtles?
I have a solution...

First of all I am not “plump”ing for Bundy. Second make no mistake this is about water and stopping oil development. It's not about grazing fees or even the turtle which is doing just fine. Many posts on this and other threads do not understand the complex situation in relation to water rights in Nevada and the thirst that Las Vegas has for water which is supported by Harry Reid. Las Vegas is raping the Eastern part of the State for water. Similar to the Owens Valley 90 years ago in Kalifornia. In any case the BLM closed the area in spite of Bundy or because of him(not). This closing represents a taking of Bundy’s LEGAL REGISTERED water rights.

All over Nevada (where I live and work) there are open range cattle - many unbranded and not claimed. This is also about stopping oil development. The Feds Ok moving hundreds of the tortoises to install a solar development yet they claim they cannot stand to have one cow in every 100 acres or they will perish. BS.

Is Bundy right? History will decide that.
Is Bundy going to win? No.
Is the BLM right? No.
Did Bundy play this smart? Absolutely not.

merely sharing the land isn’t acceptable to the extreme left.
it must in their view be ‘preserved’ for some quixiotic vision of reality which doesn’t include people trying to support themselves ranching or farming or forestry or (gasp) development. they are unrealistic and selfish.

Rancher in Clark County, Nevada raises the bar for Constitutional Patriots everywhere.

I'll need some documentation on that. I mean, it's good speculation, but it don't hold water till I see paper on it.

Like I said, I'll need some documentation on that. You understand I can' accept that on say-so.

Posted several times but here is the short answer. Reid is/has and will continue to be against oil exploration on “Federal” lands. Easily searchable.

Reid is for water going to Vegas and solar development(as noted here on FR by many). Nevada is a use it or lose it water rights situation. The State controls the water. If Bundy cannot run cattle he loses his water(again easily searchable).

Guess where the pipeline runs.
