Call me a nut too, but based on what I have read and heard thus far, his problem with the Feds is recognizing their authority over the land instead of the states. Supposedly he has said he would have no problem paying fees to the state, if they were to ask for them, but not to the Feds overland that they took and then began demanding payment for. The latest report I read says that the Feds involvement in regard to the land, now, has a lot to do with some 'endangered' desert tortoise more than anything else. I don't know what happened with the land prior to 1993, the time he either quit paying, or that the Feds started demanding payment, and haven't seen anything about that, so there has to be more to the story than is being told. Think about it like this, if the Feds all of a sudden started demanding payment for the right to do something your family had been doing for free for many, many years....and then decide you really need to stop completely because of some endangered tortoise (kind of what the latest article I read implied) how would you react.
I think, given the way many of us on here feel about the Feds desire to be involved in EVERYTHING we do nowdays, that if put in the same situation, and with all the facts in hand, NOT just what can be gathered here and there from news articles, we'd probably all be in the same shoes he's in.........and have others calling us crazy too...........
Don't forget 200 plus years ago, when our ancestors fought against an oppressive government they were called PATRIOTS. Nowdays, simply disagree with what they are doing, refuse to pay what they demand, stand up for the rights given to us my those Patriots in our Constitution, etc, etc, and your now crazy.................Really makes me wonder and truthfully somewhat afraid for our children, grandchildren, and future generations...
