Texas and the BLM about to butt heads.

[El Jefe]

If they go after the 90,000+ acres of Texas property, the fur will fly. I'm impressed a state official would stand up to the bastards.

[L1A1Rocker]

In the letter, Gen. Abbott details five issues for the BLM to address:

Please delineate with specificity each of the steps for the RMP/EIS process for property along the Red River.

Please describe the procedural due process the BLM will afford to Texans whose property may be claimed by the federal government.

Please confirm whether the BLM agrees that, from 1923 until the ratification of the Red River Boundary Compact, the boundary between Texas and Oklahoma was the gradient line of the south bank of the Red River. To the extent the BLM does not agree, please provide legal analysis supporting the BLM’s position.

Please confirm whether the BLM still considers Congress’ ratification of the Red River Boundary Compact as determinative of its interest in land along the Red River? To the extent the BLM does not agree, please provide legal analysis supporting the BLM’s new position.

Please delineate with specificity the amount of Texas territory that would be impacted by the BLM’s decision to claim this private land as the property of the federal government.


Failing the legal avenue there is also the Texas guard and Texas Air National Guard. I wonder just how many would show up if the Governor put a call out for the voluntary militia to muster.

I would imagine a whole bunch. The Feds would freak.

This needs to start happening everywhere!

Yep, doing Reid's bidding.

Way to be proactive.

Apparently the courts decided not to rule on the matter back in 1994, and the BLM has done pretty much nothing since, and hasn't made any announcements that it intends to do anything ever....

.....but thankfully Texas stands ready to sue Obama personally if the BLM does happen to consider getting around to ever thinking about possibly commencing to ponder the vague notion of debating some sort of idea of speculating a potential time-frame at which to muse over the general activities it may or may not research the prospect of dealing with.

Abbott, who is about to be the next governor by at least 15% is going to the area in question to raise this flag:

What about the 20 year court case that was settled last year against the procedures and BLM arguments that were used in their case via Bundy?
