Isn't it easy to check who owns what land? Just have a show and tell of the land deeds no?
You'd think it's as easy as that, but no one has produced anything from what I see. Both sides give statements, but no one has produced any documentation to back their claim.
It's a game of he said, she said.

Here is the history:
Federal Land Ownership: Constitutional authority and the hisotry of acquisition, disposal and retention
If you read the document you will find a continual and progressive abuse. Mainly that Nevada was required to abdicate its rights over certain lands in order to gain Statehood. This is the root of the issue. Then, Congress continually eroded the underpinnings of the Constitution by continually changing the law to favor themselves until they completely stopped divesting "federal lands" completely. There has been no divestment since the 105th congress. Nevada and Reagan tried to divest these lands but ultimately failed.
And now, we are where we are today.

You are wrong. It is federal land. The state recognizes it as federal land.
Go commit a crime in a federal park, and tell me if you go to the state pen or the federal pen.
Prove that it is Federal land. Where is the documentation stating such? A press release?
I want to see proof that the land is Federal, or proof that the land is Bundy's. A news interview?
Until then, people are getting their panties all in a wad over nothing.
I want to see documentation.edit on 11-4-2014 by TDawgRex because: Just a ETA
This is interesting. The sources suck and the information is contradicting. There is another thread here (JonButtonIII) and here (grey580) that has more about this.
New info coming out that Reid had the tortoise's land boundary redone because of a chinese company wanting to put in a solar panel farm. Still waiting for a better source than info wars to verify it tho.....
Nice catch, I also noticed that.
I believe that the area you refer to is much further south, on the NV CA border around Primm, NV. There are already 2 solar sites in that area.

I did read it, thank you. I posted it as merely input, not a platform nor position I felt that the thread should have access to all points of view. If this is not proper I will refrain from posting further. I also included a not regarding euthanasia of less healthy animals

Local radio news (Las Vegas) just reported that BLM is pulling out in the interest of safety for their personnel and civilians. They say the operation is over. Waiting for written confirmation

According to this BLM Withdraws they left without all the cattle
After the announcement, several hundred of Bundy's supporters drove toward metal pens where government officials were holding some of the cattle that had been rounded up earlier in the week. When traffic backed up, many left their cars and walked toward the pen in a line. The group chanted "open that gate" and "free the people" while government officials shouted orders back through bullhorns. Marchers and men on horseback waved American and Nevada state flags.

Michael Ellner and the "Truther girls" were right after all...

But federal funds are running dry at the Las Vegas Valley facility, and rather than release the animals, officials plan to euthanize about half of the 1,400 tortoises. The 220-acre facility will shut its doors in 2014, and the tortoises deemed feeble to survive in the wild will be set free. Many of the tortoises at the center were formerly kept as pets and are unable to survive in the desert.

New info about the ranch. As stated before Bundy owns the forage & water rights to the land. This is nothing more than Harry Reid paying back his donors with favors.

BLM has also tried to argue that the rules have changed, long after Bundy claims he secured rights and paid his dues to Clark County, Nevada.
Also Saturday, supporters of Bundy, some of them armed, forced a temporary shutdown of northbound lanes of Interstate 15 near his ranch, the Nevada Highway Patrol said.
