Yale law grad constitutional scholar, turned the tables and is using the term
"domestic enemies of the Constitution".
Rhodes wrote a rallying cry that could be described as the modern day American
declaration of independence.
This is not about cattle. This is about power, and the trampling of rights. It’s
about a systemic power grab and abuse of power by the federal government as it runs
roughshod over the rights of honest, hard-working rural Americans and over the
rights of all the Western states. This is not an isolated incident. It is but the
latest in a long train of abuses aimed at subjecting rural Americans to absolute
despotism while destroying the property rights, economy, and independence of the
rural West, in particular, and eventually wiping out all of rural America. This is
an attack on all of the West, which is why patriotic legislators and lawmen from all
over the West are answering the call to defend it.
And it is not just ranching that is under attack. It is also mining, farming,
logging, fishing, oil and gas, and any other industry that uses natural resources or
the land. This is a full spectrum, frontal assault on the rural West.
Ultimately, it is about bankrupting and impoverishing independent rural Americans to
bring on a planned depopulation of the West.
This is truly a range war, and it is being waged by all three branches of the
federal government, including complicit federal judges who “make it legal” through
their willful rulings that strip away any meaningful redress or shelter for ranchers
and farmers who have worked the land for generations only to now be told that they
can no longer do so because of one endangered species or another. Entire regions of
the West are being shut down and impoverished using this tactic.
In this case, the Bundy family has run cattle on that same range since 1877 and they
used to have fifty-two neighboring ranchers who did the same. Now, using the Desert
Tortoise as the weapon of choice, the federal government has run all the other
ranchers in Clark County, Nevada out of business, and Cliven Bundy truly is the last
man standing. And it is also about all Nevadans being “prohibited” from using
their own “Public Land” and the fact that the Feds were imposing their will over the
state and it’s people at gun-point.
Unless We the People begin to take a meaningful stand now, in full support of our
patriotic state public servants who are willing to lead us, the domestic enemies of
the Constitution will not stop until the West is a land of ghost towns, devoid of
people, and we are all crammed into city slums, totally dependent and weak, with no
protection of our rights, like third-world urbanized peons under the arbitrary and
capricious control of corrupt dictators.
