 Pictured: The remains of horses seized by BLM from the Dann family.
The raiders arrived at dawn. Contract cowboys backed by BLM rangers and other heavily armed law enforcement personnel fanned out across the desolate but alluring Nevada countryside to confiscate livestock owned by a family who – under a controversial claim of sovereignty -- had allowed them to graze on public lands without paying fees to the federal government.
“They have been overgrazing and damaging the land for years,” asserted BLM spokesman Mike Brown, who also pointed out that the family – the last holdouts in the region – had been fined millions of dollars for trespassing on public land. In defiance of federal judicial rulings and the “consensus” of their representatives, the family persisted in claiming that they had a right to graze cattle on land their ancestors had settled many decades ago. The dispute had been going on for decades, and the institutional patience of the federal government had been exhausted.
A previous roundup nearly resulted in tragedy when a member of the family doused himself in gasoline and threatened to set himself on fire. The 59-year-old man, who had no previous criminal record, was tackled, beaten by law enforcement officers, arrested, and prosecuted on terrorism-related charges.
After spending several years in prison, that supposed terrorist, Clifford Dann, was allowed to return to the tiny, ramshackle homestead he shares with his 82-year-old sister, Carrie, who is the same age their elder sister Mary was when she died in an accident while repairing a fence in 2005.
Like the Cliven Bundy family, their distant Nevada neighbors, the Dann ... (more) |

It is difficult, if not impossible, for the mind of man to conjure a more depraved expression than “Combatant children.” That obscenity is inscribed on a plaque found on a monument just north of Preston, Idaho, which serves as a memorial to the victims of the Bear River Massacre.
The plaque, which was written in 1922, claims that the US Army attack on a Shoshone village in January 1863 was justified to punish “Indians guilty of hostile attacks on emigrants and settlers,” and that ... (more) |

The nation's attention has for the past few weeks been riveted by a standoff in Nevada between armed federal agents and the Bundys, a ranching family who believe the federal government is exceeding its authority by assessing "fees" against ranchers who graze cattle on government lands. Outrage over the government’s use of armed agents to forcibly remove the Bundys' cattle led many Americans to travel to Nevada to engage in nonviolent civil disobedience in support of the family.
