A couple of
days ago I made some intemperate remarks on other’s blogs. As an example,
Well, I was
wrong. Jumped to conclusions, without all the facts. while letting deep set attitudes cloud my
thinking. For too many years, I’ve
watched people gaming the system for
their own benefit while screwing everyone else with water rights, grazing
permits, timber sales, hunting and fishing access, school land leases, etc., in rural areas, while claiming to be patriots. Turns out Mr. Bundy has
been meticulous in paying all of his county taxes for many years. His fight has
been with the Federal government.
Something
remarkable has happened in that corner of Clark County, Nevada. A United States
Senator’s sleaze has been exposed (sorry, that is redundant). Eminent domain
abuses highlighted. Citizens, fed up, taking both arms and action to put a stop
to it. Amazing!
A flash in the pan, or the start of a movement?
