Location: I can see the end of the world from here! | Although I don't have a lot of confidence in the process I feel that I must TRY!
It's quite complicated, but, for those who remember me you know that I'm very passionate about our country and the Constitution. You also know that this battle over public lands is one dear to my heart...if we lose then the foundation that our country is built on will crumble...quickly.
The big environmental groups have played us and sold a bill of goods to some of the Tribal Leaders (none of which actually live in Utah), they have promised them impossible things and the Tribal Leaders have, in turn, lied to their own people...most of which do not support them. Alas, the media doesn't report truth.
We're fighting a National Monument designation of 1.9 miliion acres in our county...this would leave 8% as private property...this land is not in any danger from anyone or thing except the fed and the enviromentalists.
It has been drilled, mined, logged, grazed, chained and dozed...there's no oil, no coal, very little uranium and no water. Yet, the left has created fear in the hearts of the masses and have asked Obama to please designate it as a monument asap...
Would you please, please sign this petition and share it everywhere?
We're up against a lot of $$...the ranchers, the Natives...all of us are at their mercy.
I know that many do not understand the AUM's out here...and the fact that the Homestead Act didn't allow for enough land to make for viable homesteading, hence, the grazing permits that have come under fire...we cannot afford to lose our cattle industry. Or the ability to gather firewood to heat our homes.
I thank you from the bottom of my heart.

| Done. When you have a President who thinks cattle guards are government employees and dressage is horse dancing (among other things) what do you expect?

August 14th...we have less than 10,000 and need 100,000.
Thank you so very much...the 'left' has been gathering momentum for decades...they are well organized. Unlike those of us who were raised to mind our own business...we get caught with our pants down! lol

I've started calling them EnviroNazi's. It fits. They want to tell everyone how they should think and live. To the great detriment of rural people's livelihoods. |

Lol...that is perfect! I have such a hard time comprehending the amount of pure igmorance in this world! And when you try to share facts they quickly clam up and are not open to anything that contradicts their 'opinion'...of course, many on here know what I think of opinions...hahaha...
Thanks to all of you...I've seen the numbers go up and am so sure that this bunch has a lot to do with it!

No...especially not from those of us who will be affected.
There was a huge outdoor recreation summit in Salt Lake yesterday, some of the local Navajo ladies were able to go as it was advertised as open to the public, however, when they arrived in their 'No Monument' shirts they were not allowed in.
It has come to light that this group has been working on getting the Tribal leaders involved since 2014 and there's much speculation that there's $$ involved along with certain 'promises' like the tribes having control over the concessions (tours, food, hotels etc...). This is NOT reservation land! The truth is scewed from every angle...as it isn't traditional indian lands, either...it WAS a great place for various peole to hide in! From the Anasazi Indians to Butch Cassidy (and other outlaws) to Navajos who were hiding from Kit Carsen...they weren't 'found' in this rugged country of canyons & cliffs with little to no water.
It protects itself quite well! Also, there's no oil or coal...a little uranium is all.
It's a land grab, one that will eventually 'connect' ALL the 'federal lands' (parks, reservations, monuments...)...think about that.
There is a lot of big money behind this.
In order to turn our country around and reclaim the sovereign rights of citizens...we must first claim the sovereign rights of states...this is where we derive our voice, it's where we vote...it is the cornerstone to the UNITED States of America!
She's worth the fight! And we certainly are NOT Burns, Oregon...lol.
