Yes, as far as I know, there was no problem with the Bureau of Land Management until these nutcases started protesting.So let me get this straight, these morons get into an armed standoff with the federal government, then act surprised when they get shot?
Yes, Have a problem with the government? Just call Saul.They should have hired lawyers and made their case through the courts and the press.
Didn't we already go through this in 1776?
If you don't like it, become the clown. Everybody wants to vote. That is easy. I'm pretty selfish, but every two years I drive 2.3 miles to my local middle school and sacrifice an hour (or less) to vote. The Founding Fathers didn't just simply vote every two years. They really sacrificed.1776 was about taxation without REPRESENTATION.
We now get to vote for politicians who decide federal laws and policies. If you don't like what they do then vote the clowns out of office.
you threaten a rancher who started with nothing but bare land and created an environment where cattle could thrive profitably (in the good years) and passed that ranch down to his kids and grandkids, you are not likely to have a good day.I agree with the original poster here. If you intend on getting involved in an armed stand off with the feds, you better have a good life insurance policy. It is kind of ironic how some of the same people who are defending the ranchers right to take up arms against the feds will in the same breath defend the inner city cops having to deal with the thugs. I also find it interesting how some of my liberal friends will take issue with the rancher getting shot by the feds in that he really got what he deserved while still chanting the "arms up, don't shoot" bs perpetrated by the Michael Brown race baiters.
Bottom line....you threaten the law and you are not likely to have a good day.
