so, i guess folks here think that any person or company who has an allotment to use federal public lands by permission of the federal government( me and you), now have property rights to the land...so, they can do whatever they want, clear cut it, strip mine it, use up all the natural resources... chew it up and spit it out... then hand it back over to us... and thats ok with everyone???

Are you accusing the Hage family, who had lawful allotment of this land, of clear cutting, strip mining, using up all the natural resources, and chewing it up and spitting it out, or are you making a leap of logic to somehow defend the criminal actions of the BLM?

hats off to the man

second line

As a red blooded American, like my grandfather who just passed away, I will defend this country and all it's inhabitants from all enemies, foreign and domestic. It is my duty as an American citizen to uphold the Constitution of this free nation. i will give my life willfully to protect everything, everyone who is free. I stand behind this sheriff, I will stand behind anyone who defends this nation and those who oppose tyranny.


I thank this sheriff for his service, I thank those who have sacrificed to retain what they believe is true. I thank those who have been manipulated by this global oligarchy into believing this is freedom because they truly believe this is freedom. I cannot blame them. I defend them with my life as I hope they would too. With all my heart, i pray for total truth and freedom for all who seek it.

Godspeed to all and to all I pray for you to never forget what and who you truly are.

I could not have said a better comment as this one as posted above...

It is the CRUX of the issue(s) at hand.

This event needs to be trumped, paraded, and bill boarded across America as to WHY Americans NEED THEIR GUNS!

THIS IS A CLASSIC EXAMPLE OF CONSTITUTIONALITY WORKING FOR HONEST AMERICANS

Those bureaucrats from the BLM need to be identified and tried as enemies of the American Constitution...

Enemies who as defined by the Patriot Act did intentionally enact a terrorist effort against an American citizen and an American institute of Law. I want thier citizenship stripped from them, thier guns taken, and I want to see them moved to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba...

Those that flee...

I want to see Obama issue warrants authorizing thier assassination!....

COME ON MR. DOUBLE STANDARD AMERICA!... where's your law now?! follow your own damn laws or be held accountable by them!!!

Ah, that we had more "servants of the people" such as this man to face down evil intentions of the Feds.

Unfortunately, you will note the good man is not a young man. Only old-timers will say they are "servants of the people". Most in that office today around the country are not willing to stand down the Feds in favor of the people's rights. Most, in fact, are meerly pawns of the Fed, doing their bidding. As such we can not, as a general rule, look to LEOs to represent the interests of the citizens

Threatening to kill someone over cows is not an honor. It's a dishonor.

You obviously aren't from Texas.


This video shows a sheriff who stood up for what he thought was right. Now, all his bravado aside, he did help these people retain their rights. He fought the good fight.

The attempt to compare him to McVeigh is a strawman. He may have talked his trash, but did he injure anyone? Didn't think so. Strawman burned.

I lived in Nye county for 3 years. I am not a big fan of law enforcement, but this man is one of a very few of them who used to encourage us to wear our firearms in public. He stated on a local news program that he believed it would actually prevent crime from happening. My hat is off to you Tony!!!!

This is why I love Nevada and never leaving my beautiful desert. I know every little town and city in Nevada. I'm telling you now, this isn't the only sheriff we have here who thinks like this. Most of the cops who perform their duties in cities and towns across Nevada believe as this sheriff does.


1. I open carry, not one officer has stopped me over suspicion. I have been asked about the quality of my pistol.

2. I have never been harassed or arrested by the police for any reason.

3. I have been cited by NHP for speeding and driving without a license. After explaining that I was driving because the actual driver was falling asleep, I was let go with only a speeding ticket...Whereas I could have been arrested and fined hundreds of dollars, I was given an $80 ticket and told to slow down and drive safely.

4. Cops here in Reno will NOT search you unless you consent or they have actual probable cause.

5. I have never been profiled or harassed based on my race or the fact that I'm an immigrant. I've only been asked questions about my country of origin as a matter of personal curiosity.

These people are diligent in their duties. Are there bad cops in Nevada? Yep. But not many. We're still the wild west and we like it that way. The cops know this, the people know this. Even the state and local governments know this. When I go to places like California my palms sweat, and I get nervous just seeing a cop. I've never felt threatened by police of any kind here in Nevada, I've felt protected. They are professional, courteous, and understanding.

This sheriff is just one example of Nevada's finest in action.

Bravo!!

Juat goes to show you that you must elect your local Sheriffs well. They will be one of our first lines of defense if things keep going the way they are going.
