"'The only safe place for the land and the resources are in the hands of the people,' Bundy says." 

OK… but, like, the land and resources WERE in the hands of the people, right? I mean, that's what BLM/Government-owned land is. We as citizens all collectively own it. He wants to give it to who…ranchers? Militants? What if a hippie commune decides the land and resources belong to them? I really, really don't get the logic here. 

Also, off topic, but do you think the armed dudes occupying the fire tower would report a fire if they saw one? I mean, I know it's winter, but who knows how long these guys are going to be there. The FBI doesn't seem to be doing much but waiting and watching. I just hope that, if they're still there come fire season, they're not too anti-government to phone in a forest fire if they see one!
