I'm truly fascinated by how eagerly people defend somebody who mooched off his fellow Americans

I also doubt militias would have come to the defense of gun-despising hippies squatting on Yosemite or Yellowstone.

You people are so transparently hypocritical you're comical.

Totally irrelevant... such rights don't exist in perpetuity unless you actually own the land. Bundy does not own the land. And they expire when you renege on your part of the deal. Bundy reneged.

The Federal government has been FULL AND ONLY owner since 1848 when the land was ceded by Mexico.

A lot of "freedom lovers" are ignorant, as you just showed yourself to be.

This was not an eminent domain issue. The land was not Mr. Bundy's.
And, by the way, it was we "lefties" who protested the loudest over the Supreme Court's Kelo decision, but you righties who are most prone to approve things like George Bush seizing a man's house in order to enrich himself with a new Texas Rangers stadium.
