This is all going to make for some of the best South Park Episodes ever!
I hadn't even thought of that... This is epic material...

some think the Carwrights swindled everyone else out of that half million acre spread and said so..
It wasn't all that rosey. Somebody got killed on the property almost every week. Some were under pretty suspicious circumstances. I'm surprised sherrif Coffee didn't tear his hair out worrying about that family. It got so bad Adam Cartwright left Nevada and went to sea, some say to avoid prosecution.
And Ben was as trigger happy as Lavoy. He was always drawing on people.

Bruce, Ben Cartright might have ridden over to check on you if he saw you on his land, but once he realized you weren't cattle rustlers or horse thieves, he'd have probably told you to have a great day, and to stop in at the house on your way out to share a meal.
Ghost, I thought that even as I was writing it, but it was fun to riff on a famous TV rancher anyway. HA!!

Survival, Timid and i were also tooled by ranchers on public lands @ Stoney Ford reservoir ..A rude rancher told us to get out that we were trespassing on private property..We replied, isn't this public land?..Rancher"No, so get out!!".
He was standing next to his truck and had a shot gun in his truck, so.. not wanting a redneck-round-up .. we vacated the area.
When we got back to the campground we talked with the ranger... The State ranger said " It's public land, you have the right to hike where ever you please"...It's calving season, so he's a bit testy, but it's not his private property.
edit: and speaking of Malheur National Wildlife Refuge..I have seen several articles that quote ranchers who seem to work well with the refuge & the State. ..Here is one that has some quotes.

Just so I get the story straight. Some of your are advocating for more government controlled lands, because you don't have the stones to stand up to a rancher that tries to run you off of public property?
What am I missing?

We are happy with the public land we have access to now, thanks.

Escopeta wants you to bring guns to stand up to the ranchers with guns and make some kind of stand in the backcountry.

Escopeta, you're missing the part where you're being a dick.
I never said more govt. land. I simply said it pissed me off to be run off clearly marked BLM land.
I had 2 small children with me. This mouthy man had 2 other grown men in his truck. We were 15 miles from the nearest paved road. I had no idea what they would have behaved like if I had flat out told them no. This was in deep old school New Mexico where some of the hispanic families still have "land grant" from the king of Spain mentality.
So I suppose your "stones" would have had you throwing hands with 3 guys while your small kids were there?

Well they "Internet[-ed]" it, so they should be good
And yeah, last I checked Harney County isn't part of Nevada, nor vice versa. Perhaps he does not understand English, or maybe it's geography

Haha. About three clauses in the Constitution violated by that one line.

Common law grand jury orders the militia to arrest the officers involved in the death of LaVoy Finicum.
These men are employed by the French banking cartel known as the International Monetary Fund which is an agency of the United Nations.

Then you self-selected. Which is not my fault. Maybe to divert attention from the fact you got punked off your own precious government land.
If you want to call names, I'm down for whatever. <shrugs>
