America, thanks to the crisis at the Hammond Ranch and the stand-off at the seized Federal building in Burns, Oregon, we have a real opportunity to expose a major fraud being perpetrated against the American people and our collective futures. The globalists have left the door open to being exposed for who and what they are to the American people as a whole.
The Hammond Affair is critically important.We need to defend our property rights. However, the abuse of the Hammond family is smokescreen for what is really at stake. We desperately need to keep our eye on the ball.
Summary of the Hammond Ranch Affair
How did we get to the point where we could see a major armed conflict between members of the Patriot community and the forces of the federal government?
The Original Situation
The Hammond family conducted a few controlled burns on their land which spread to Federal land. The father-son duo were eventually prosecuted under statutes reserved for terrorists. This was a huge miscarriage of justice. I understand fining the two for their perceived recklessness, might have been appropriate, however, the Hammond family are NOT terrorists. Neither man deserved prison time. The elder Hammond is 73 years old and I fail to see the value in jailing a man in this set of circumstances.
As important as this issue is with regard to land rights in the West and a gross example of prosecutorial abuse of the Hammonds, there is much more to this case.
The Private Theft of Public Assets
Paralleling the current crisis is the case of the misuse and theft of the people’s assets. In many BLM lands, involving private ranchers, minerals are being taken out of the mines. I have documented this on several instances on The Common Sense Show.
