Calling someone unhinged is quite an accusation. You are implying that they are ready for an institution. I will give you the benefit of the doubt for now, and assume that you did not know the meaning of the word. Please don't make such an accusation toward greaser again.

It is relevant when the reason given for the armed Feds showing up is the amount he owes. It is obvious that that is a lie. If the amount of money owed is what prompted the armed respone than the failure to treat Sharpton must be racism--- lack of equal treatment under the law.

Anyone who opposes the Fed, no matter how abusurd the reason, is a pal of LB's. Put a cowboy hat on him and they aren't pals, they're blood kin.

This debate is so ridiculous. The guy has NOT been paying fees for TWENTY years, and clearly is trying to make it a states rights issue now that its time to pay the piper and the inevitable bureacracy has caught up with him

Also, all this crap about things just coming out or actions illegally taken by the fed is preposterous. The guy probably has at a minimum, a hundred mailed notices saying he was delinquent, that such and such would happen, that he has such and such amount of time to appeal, ect. These things dont just suddenly happen, the current situation is the end result of twenty years of evading and ignoring notice after notice.

Heres a comparison thats similar-
My sister is a public defender in NY. Shes been telling me about a case where a guy who is an immigrant got two moving violations 9 years ago in his cab. He didnt pay the tickets, ignored every single notice sent, and 200 bucks in tickets became 15 violations. Years went by, and ultimately a warrant was issued for his arrest. Heres where it gets sticky for him. He hasnt been keeping up with immigration paperwork either, so now the house of cards is falling apart and he actually faces deportation over an initial illegal turn incident.

The lesson, do not ignore offical notices. This rancher obviously figured he could fly under the radar forever, but its caught up with a vengence. Now hes skillfully made it into a larger issue than just him evading fees that everyone else pays.

Im extremely surprised to see larry for one, defending him. Hes been breaking the laws for two decades, but apparently all is forgiven

This guy is an insult to respectable western ranchers. What's glaring is the hypocrisy of those who support him. All the camo'd play soldiers who showed up looking for a fight. These are the same idiots who spout off on gun forums about Obama supporters wanting their "free stuff". Yet somehow it's OK that this fellow doesn't have to repay the people of the U.S. for the privilege of making his living on THEIR land.

lotta hate here. somehow misses the fact that the .Gov sent out a Special Reaction Force, amoured vehicles, snipers and 5 helicopters to confiscate 300 cattle.... that's the over the top part....

Given the yahoos out there with their guns I think it was right on target.

VERY INSULTING!

My biggest kick about this is the WAY that the Feds are responding. Killing two of his bulls? That's pathetic. When will the Feds storm Sharpton? Answer, never.

Lets say i refuse to pay my propert tax, years go by, lein is put on my house, bank or city ultimately owns my property ,i refuse to leave, they send cops and i stand them down with my crew of people who are armed. You think they arent going to come back with a swat team?

the yahoos showed up AFTER it was found that the government sent out a parmilitary unit to do civil law enforcement

Sorry if you think that. I consider it fully relevant. Sharpton owes more but is not being attacked by armed Feds.
Every excuse offered by the Feds has been a lie. The desert tortoise-- which the Feds destroyed, the million he owes--when others owe more.
Some of you are too quick to believe what your government is telling you--I bet you even believe Benghazi was due to an internet video.
When they finally come for you, won't be anyone left to come to you aid.

So for the sake of discussion Sharpton is a strawman. Does that justify insults?

Why is Sharpton a strawman? Bundy owes a million and receives an armed attack from the Feds, but Sharpton owes almost TWO million and goes Scot free. Why is that?

Oh I don't know. Sharpton owes taxes, Bundy owes RENT. Sharpton isn't squatting on public land, Bundy IS.
Yeah, I see the similarities.
