I say deport them! If Bundy doesn’t want to be a US citizen, let him move outside of the USA.

BTW, you should start a protest to deport Mr. Bundy..

Good luck with that Mr Rodgers!

You and I are exactly the same.

Thank You for that compliment but in following many of your posts I have found you far excel me in seeking the truth. I have to follow you around to find what I've missed. I miss a lot and have to go back over and over again to re-evaluate my opinions.

Personally, I think it’s time to talk land resources. I can see some agree on forest areas to be saved....as we did east of the Mississippi. But the general limit ought to be less than ten percent of a state can be federally retained.

Why should the federal government be involved at all? What Constitutional authority do they have to own those lands? (i.e. Are the States sovereign, or not?) Moreover, what makes the federal government a better steward of these lands than the States themselves? — Locality itself should dictate that the States, being right there, would be better positioned and more interested in their well-being than "a master in a farr0off land", no?
