“The BLM manages nearly 700 million acres of federal lands in the United States. Because of tight restrictions, the “onshore” oil and gas wells on BLM lands accounts for just 11 percent of the natural gas supply and five percent of the oil supply in the United States.”
I think we’ve found the problem. First of all, take away ALL of the BLM’s guns. If for some reason, they have a problem where weapons are needed, there’s the US Marshals Service. Second, freeze hiring there, Third, start early retirements. Lastly, put all the ammunition they have purchased up to public auction. (Actually this should be done for all agencies that are not basic Law Enforcement where there are firearms)
Maybe the bureau could be downsized or dissolved.
