[QUOTE="Hobbes, post: 2481747, member: 3371"] I agree. I guess it originally became federal land because federal troops kicked the **** out of Mexican troops and won it by force of arms. At that point every square foot of it was federal land I imagine. Upon statehood the feds released about 15% of it and kept the other 85% It should have been the other way around. The federal government should have released most of that land to the state. I'm hopeful they state efforts will be successful. As of now though, they haven't done so. I will say though, when someone tells me that "it's state land" and what they really mean is "it [U]should[/U] be state land" it makes me less sympathetic to their cause because I prefer a straight answer.
