Corrupt MSM/RW Frame - Militia Has A Point - Give Them The Land.

If you read between the lines the corrupt corporate MSM and RW is framing this militia invasion that says they have the right to invade and are entitled to the land. The mind set of the locals in many of the areas where there is federal land is that it is their land and their right to use it as they see fit locally and at the state level.

All the rhetoric is about the ability to graze on public lands, mine it, ride around it on an ATV etc at will. They have little sense that many of these federal lands are owned by everyone. The environment and animals be damned. They have to learn to survive the onslaught. It is part of the Christian view that man is the dominator of the planet. And even this occupation and a religious undercurrent.

So we are faced with an attitude nationally that the local control the land around them. Period. Their other argument is the federal government is depriving them of making a living because they cannot use the land as THEY see fit.
