I don’t talk to cops or consent to searches without a warrant, but this guy has a long history of not playing well with others.

The procedure for getting compensated does not allow for holding the cattle hostage while demanding excessive compensation and running up a bigger feed bill. Sorta like tow truck company storage fees.

This guy brought the shitstorm on himself and then tries to wrap himself in the flag and claim jackboot oppression.

One thing conservatives need to be careful of is getting jacked up over the wrong causes.

“This guy brought the shitstorm on himself and then tries to wrap himself in the flag and claim jackboot oppression.”

I wasn’t born on this ranch but I’ve been here since Mom was able to leave the hospital, that was almost 64 years ago. I and my family have been at this business for over 100 years. Cows get in and cows get out, if a fence goes down you and your neighbor fix it, if cows crossed y’all gathered them up and got them back where they belong. This is called being a neighbor. My Grand Dad got injured pretty bad back in the late 30’s and neighbors from all around helped work cows when needed. 3 years ago we had a bad fire and half of the ranch burnt taking out the fences between us and the ranch to the west. We had cows every where and it took about 6 months to get them all back where they belong. Not once over all these years has anybody demanded compenstion, it was offered and as always refused. That fine young man pleading to press looks to be the poster boy for what a jerk neighbor would be. These are old ranches down here and we’re all old friends we don’t extort money from each other. Now selling and trading is a whole different game and the old timers held it to a fine art, my Grand Dad was one of the best.
