[QUOTE="Glocktogo, post: 2483903, member: 1132"] Well I feel a bit sheepish now. I must admit that I'm frequently annoying and contrary around here, so even I understand how Hobbes might've taken what I posted a different way than I meant it. This just reinforces what I posted about the how and why of the Nevada territory voluntarily relinquishing all claims and rights to the land in question. [url]http://lands.nv.gov/forms/chapter1.pdf[/url] Bundy's own state disagrees with him. It belongs to the federal government, period. Nothing at all in evidence will refute that. Even if we could all agree that everyone wants Bundy gone so they can re-purpose the land and water, his claim will never hold up in court. It hasn't for over 20 years because he's wrong. Are they trying to get rid of him as cheaply as possible? Yes. Is it right? No. Is it legal? Absolutely. Will it eventually happen? Most likely. I recognize that he has an emotional attachment to the area and stubbornly refuses to accept that his own state doesn't want him there anymore. But Nevada is running out of water, fast. They also can't generate hydro power with no water. The only thing they have in abundance is sun and wind. They need the water he has a lease on and they need the land for energy production.
