He has been refusing to pay for grazing on federal lands.. lands that belong to all of us.. so if I wanted to camp out on those prairies or do a study of prairie life, I could NOT because he has his cattle illegally in our property.. where are my rights as a citizen in this.

A History of BLM Law Enforcement
With confusion over Bundy, book by Dennis McLane is suddenly very relevant-
History of grazing and the BLM needs to be known.
When Bundy cattle trespass situation came to a head this month, there was great media interest and a mass of confusion too. Now the situation is clearing a bit. More reflective and more accurate stories and opinions are being written. However, there is still a lot of confusion and a fair amount of it is deliberate.
Americans have a vast heritage of public lands and most love it but very few know its history and more than a few of the ways it is managed.
