BLM voided the lease and Mr. Bundy has refused to pay his prior lease
payments for quite a few years OR remove his cattle. He is now
claiming the STATE can allow him to use "his" land because the Federal
Goverment has no control over it.
As I said, unless he has a land grant from the King of Spain via the
Treaty of Guadalupe y Hildalgo, he's trespassing on BLM land without
permission. In essence he is squatting on someone else's property and
claiming it as his.
He's lost his court battles twice, at least, and is now recruiting
fringe nuts to start a war with Federal agents doing their job.
BLM has the right to grant and revoke land use leases as they see fit
and regulate the use of the land. The land is the propery of the US
Goverment and his challange to the BLM regulations has failed in court
twice -- he is simply taking the law into his own hands and raising a
private army to steal.
Hardly a dispute over "grazing rights" on someone else's land, which
no one has anyway.
