Can anyone tell me the connection between grazing fees.?

And a person's view on the modern welfare system. The statement by Mr Bundy says that blacks have exchanged one form of slavery for another. A view I have heard from educated people (including black people).

The connection between Bundy's views...
that he can "fire" the BLM
that he DOES NOT RECOGNIZE the Federal govt (at all)
that he is "willing to pay fees to Nevada" (who does not have any authority over said land)
that he is being "oppressed" when the court issues valid orders to remove and/or confiscate the cattle
All of this (and more) are examples of the man's delusional thinking.
All of which you, yourself, continue to praise and defend, including flat false statements.
In short.. the man has several screws loose. His bigoted commentary about Blacks (yes, they are bigoted, but you may fail to recognize that as well).. are just FURTHER evidence of the man's twisted thinking. Grazing and blacks have no connection. Then, why would he make them the focus of a PRESS CONFERENCE he personally held? You do understand, when you have a press conference, the object is to speak about something new, and somethng RELATED to his public issue? Just one more screw loose.

No connection.....why would Bundy even bring it up.....and continue to try to attack black people over his own failure to pay for his grazing fees for 22 years?

Further, you and he are making the false claim that 'blacks have exchanged one form of slavery for another'. The vast majority of black people are not on welfare......and there are more white people on welfare anyway, so if he or you want to rant about welfare, perhaps both of you should stop making it about race and slavery when the evidence shows us that the majority of Americans of all races and ethnicities are NOT utilizing welfare.

Statism, servitude under State rule, is a form of slavery (serfdom). He is saying it is worse on Uncle Sam's plantation than it was on an actual plantation because of the way government treats its slaves (serfs).
A big part of being American is liberty from the institution of the State, yet so many today look to the State as if it matters more than their freedom from it. But that's the point of government, tyranny over mind and body.

The connection is he is using his current celebrity status to prat on about black people and slavery.

The man never owned a rubber and hasn't paid his bills in twenty years, why Republicans listen to him I don't know.
