It was only recently that BLM officers gunned a man down on the highway near Las Vegas. He was unarmed; I don’t remember anyone making a big stink about it though.

I’m looking for the politician who is prepared to defund BLM or at the very least cut it up and hand it off to the states for them to do as they like, either fund or dismantle.

The entire allotment is about 56 percent privately owned. . the BLM ordered grazing closures .

Instead of battling the decision in court, Grant Gerber suggested the effected families alert representatives in power, and along the way, the populous at large.

The ride, dubbed the Grass March, was modeled after Mahatma Gandhi’s Salt March. Gerber and his son rode from Elko to Carson City to draw attention to the situation while calling for the Battle Mountain BLM district manager’s ouster.

Gerber organized another horse ride across the country. The Grass March/Cowboy Express began in September from Bodega Bay, California, and covered more than 2,800 miles before riders reached Washington, D.C., with satchels of petitions calling for relief from the federal government in various land disagreements.

In was on this ride that Gerber hit his head in a horse fall. He completed the journey but died in a hospital following surgery
