My dad did pay his grazing fees for years to the BLM until they were no
longer using his fees to help him and to improve. Instead they began using these
monies against the ranchers. They bought all the rest of the ranchers in the
area out with they’re own grazing fees. When they offered to buy my dad out for
a penance he said no thanks and then fired them because they weren’t doing their
job.

He quit paying the BLM and tried giving his grazing fees to the county,
which they turned down. So my dad just went on running his ranch and making his
own improvements with his own equipment and his own money, not taxes. In essence
the BLM was managing my dad out of business.

Well when buying him out didn’t work, they used the endangered species card. You’ve already heard about the desert tortoise. Well that didn’t work either, so then began the threats and the court orders, which my dad has proven to be unlawful for all these years.
