Also he is doing damage to the environment his cattle is wrecking the streams
Pardon me while i--
i'm done here as i can see you have no clue of the symbiotic relationship of animals and land.
I don't know how much damage cattle have done in this specific case, but I've lived in New Mexico, and have personally been effected by asshole farmers destroying land. It's not the cows, it's the people that come with them.
Some of my favorite childhood fishing spots are toxic and full of yellow fish. It wasn't BLM and EPA poisoning the water, it was careless farmers. Burgers and manure aren't always a fair trade off. Idiots who think they are harmless can easily destroy good things.
REALLY??? i quote "Some of my favorite childhood fishing spots are toxic and full of yellow fish"
WOW.,, name one spot, so we can go find it on the internet,, just one of these favourite spots of yours,,
Going after these Government subsidies/Ranchers/Fisherman,, etc,,,, at this point and time,,

I know republicans dislike the EPA, and now the BLM, but why do i feel like some of you would be against any environmental protection? I know tree hungers are annoying, but when did respecting the land and life around you become a bad thing? Is money so important we'd go against our own self interests to get it? I know they slow profit, but some people really are assholes, I like having groups to hold them accountable.

Federally owned land = public land=my land=your land. Period!!!, Feds are our servants, not masters. We, the public, raise beef on our public lands to feed us, the public.
What is the problem?

This is FEDERAL land. It's NOT the individual's private land, in either case.

They present it this way, but I guarantee that further down the line, there will be an event that you will question. BUT, your reaction will be based on a historical precedent set right here and now. Can you guess how you will react?

It is obvious that the BLM want a confrontation, they just don't want to be the ones that actually start shooting. Land ownership and water ownership will be major cornerstones of society along with mining rights.
There is an agenda, that much is obvious. Try to discover what conglomerate actually wants this land and for what.
They will continue with this BS until they get what they want, and what they want is a fire fight. Look for a false flag this time. They will get someone inside the rancher's lines that will spark the whole thing off, they have to.
Why the hell doesn't the state step in and legislate these so called federal powers away. I acknowledge they should not have to but it is working well on those states that have backed up the 2nd with special acts. They need to pull the teeth of the BLM and it is an urgent matter. It is well worth calling the House for a special sitting.

I will react by looking up the details and finding out if the land is actually privately-owned land or federal land, as I have with each of these cases. So far, it's been federal land. You can't steal something that belongs to you.
I'm not much into conspiracies out of nothing but a hatred of "them" and some kind of suspicion.

The federal government owns land ONLY in the name of the people they serve therefore we own the land. There is no entity called federal government that is able to buy sell lease or give away anything of it's own.
