'Since 2001 — two years before the Bundys moved in — the city has had a conservation easement on the property that also limits its use.'

I would fault him in purchasing a property with a easement on it. Never do that. It will only lead to a headache. Let this be a lesson for all.

Over half of the state of Louisiana is classified as ‘wetlands’ severely restricting its use. I would imagine that most of the Portland, OR area is also classified as a ‘wetlands’. It’s hard to find a piece of property to build on when all of the property is restricted, thus making everyone a potential lawbreaker just for using his land. When everybody is a lawbreaker then the state can pick and choose which Romney supporter to prosecute.
