Good morning kids.
Believe it or not, no matter how many fliers I may take off
into deep right center over some issue or another that has pissed me off beyond
human recognition, I actually try pretty hard to not come off as some
ultra-right wing conspiracy theorist Bill of Rights spewing wackadoo. I’m usually the guy telling someone else to
adjust their tin foil fedora for a little better reception from the mothership.
And then something like the bullshit that’s going on in
Nevada right now over the whole Bundy Ranch issue starts up and I have to
seriously consider taking stock in some good ol’ aluminium (British spelling sir,
calm down) myself.
I’m not going to take the time here to educate you on what’s
going on if you’re not aware. If you
have no clue what I’m talking about I suggest you stop being a dipshit and
learn a thing. This is serious business
folks and it sets a very, very dangerous precedent.
I’m also not going to preach and rant and rave on this
subject. I’ll save that for the radio
show Thursday night. What I am going to do is to speak my mind on a few points
and leave it at that. We’ll debate
whatever points you all wish or discuss ad nauseum at a later date. I just need to get this out there.
So here are my points for thought on this issue:
1-
Mr. Bundy is in the wrong. He’s illegally grazing his cattle on that
land. It’s a fact.
2-
This is a civil issue, not a criminal one, in
all but the most narrow of interpretations.
3-
We have civil courts and a Sheriff’s Department
in every county of this country to resolve these types of issues. At its core this is an issue of imminent
domain, jurisdiction, adverse possession, and overreach.
4-
Sending officers armed with automatic weapons
and placing sniper teams on overwatch to effect the removal of illegally
grazing cattle is akin to using a SWAT team to kick some dumbass out of
government housing for not paying his $15 a month.
5-
The “militia” showing on said property was not
effected by some group of nutballs.
These are concerned citizens who saw the potential for a complete
erosion of their rights. I’m not saying
however there aren’t a couple o’ nutballs present, however.
6-
Question:
since when did the federal government become involved in a state land
issue LEGALLY without either the purchase of said land from the state or the
exercise of imminent domain?
7-
If you think for one minute that this situation has
de-escalated because of the temporary withdraw of force by our government, you
are sadly mistaken.
Folks, I have a bad feeling about this one. I’m concerned that some moron, be they
government employee behind a desk, law enforcement officer just trying to do
their job, a law abiding citizen trying to protect their rights, or some
asshole looking for a reason get his or her gun off is going to start an
incident that will get someone, if not a lot of someone’s killed. Cooler heads have to prevail here
people. Armed clashes are not what we
need as a country UNLESS we’re ready, as a populace, to go all in and I just
don’t see that as the case. Not yet
anyway.
However, that being said, I’d like to point out one
thing. Yes I understand the Supreme
Court has upheld the right of the LOCAL AUTHORITIES to cordon off 1st
Amendment zones when protests can turn violent over known issues. However, the same decision states that 1st
Amendment zones are illegal unless a clear and demonstrable danger exists
BEFORE they are instituted. Otherwise,
and please pay attention Mr. Obama and company, OUR 1ST AMENDMENT
ZONE EXTENDS FROM THE FUCKING CANADIAN BORDER TO THE MEXICAN ONE AND GETS
RATHER WET ON ITS EASTERN AND WESTERN MOST SIDES AND UNTIL I SEE OUR
CONSITUTION BURNT TO A CINDER ON THE ALTER OF ULTRA-LIBERAL HOMOGENY THEN YOU
CAN TAKE YOUR ATTEMPTS TO CONTINUALLY DEGRADE MY CONSTITUTIONALLY PROTECTED
RIGHTS AND SHOVE THEM UP YOUR HIGH AND MIGHTY SOCIALIST ASS.
I’ll be waiting out front for the black SUV’s.
I’ll be the one in the tin foil hat if you’re not sure how
to find me.
They seem to be becoming
fashionable.
