The number of ranchers, farmers and other land owners who have been forced off of their land by the FedMob is huge. Most are intimidated and economically broken into abandoning their land and no one ever hears about them.
Do a search with terms like “land grab,” “western land grab” or “federal land grab” and see how many stories you come up with. Keep in mind that a lot of them happened well before the internet was popular or useful and those stories are forgotten and won’t show up on the interwebs.

Does everyone know you can vote once every day? Seems participation is slowing down.
Thanks.
The Federals had to intercept troops from Texas and Oklahoma that were about to go to war over the property around the Red River near Bridgetown. Judge Franklin Delano (yes, the uncle to a progressive communist) was the judge that settled the dispute. I had the honor of talking to one of the Texans that was present during those times. The Red River near Harold moving East to Bridgetown and Thimble has moved Southward over the last 100 years. I don’t see an easy answer soon.
People always have more interest in new things.
This isn’t unusual.
Doing it every day comes with some risk. That is the risk.
I am trying to observe trends.
Do endorsements affect things? Does news? Do scandals? Will the caucuses and primaries?
I’ll try to drum up participation.
If folks don’t find this of value, I’m won’t be offended.
It’s an exercise to see what people think. If no one cares, I’m perfectly fine with that.
What I don’t like to see is it look like there are only a couple of hundred of us on the forum on any give day.
We should have a little more pride than that.
I’ve read it numerous times, and skimmed it a few times today, and I’m not seeing anything that says the US can’t own land. The opposite, actually.
I need to go to Amy’s Place. I’ll post the link again and remind people that they can vote once a day and watch the trends.
I enjoy checking the graphs every day to see if there have been any changes.
I saw drastic changes after the debate.
:)
I’d like that.

When you understand that the Constitution is first a document of restriction, then it will all become clear. Congress can acquire land for the erection of forts, arsenals, dock yards, and other NEEDFUL BUILDINGS.. This means there must be a FEDERAL reason for FEDERAL possession of land. A wildlife refuge is NOT A FEDERAL PURPOSE.
That is very true - it’s like paying rent to the government, and they can sell your house if you don’t pay. My property taxes (divided monthly) are more than the mortgage on my first house!
I got all that down just fine. OP said the Constitution says fedzilla can’t own land. Period, no qualifications.
Thank you - I’ll have to get that one.
Cement it in place like they do in California?
Excellent question and I hope someone provides an honest answer!
Correct. Under Texas law, the doctrine of adverse possession does not apply to public lands or against a government entity. There are options, but the best option is public opinion, which is pretty weak, since Obama and his minions don't care how much decent people despise them.
Unfortunately, our current federal government is maliciously persecuting conservatives and perceived conservatives. Unless this rancher is gay or transgender, BLM will destroy him economically, and if he resists, the FBI will shoot him in the back.
