You should read Article 1 Section 8 more closely. To wit:

To exercise exclusive legislation in all cases whatsoever, over such District (not exceeding ten miles square) as may, by cession of particular states, and the acceptance of Congress, become the seat of the government of the United States, and to exercise like authority over all places purchased by the consent of the legislature of the state in which the same shall be , for the erection of forts, magazines, arsenals, dockyards, and other needful buildings;--And

To make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution the foregoing powers, and all other powers vested by this Constitution in the government of the United States, or in any department or officer thereof

The BLM did NOT take away grazing land. You can not take away from someone else what you already own. The BLM assered the owners rights of the federal government to use that land in the manner the owner thought was the best use of that land.

None of which the BLM is doing here.

Bundy is in compliance with State laws.

You can keep trying to justify your beloved BLM's actions, but it's not going to get you very far.

Open Range isn’t “ended” in Nevada. I just bought a section over there in 2013 and it was stated right in the documents. If you don’t want livestock on your land it’s your duty to fence them out.
