What are they doing working in land management if they are not land managers?
Yeah, I've seen the law enforcement guys on the news pointing guns at unarmed ranchers and concerned taxpayers. Outstanding employees they have there.
I guess I'm an old fart but I haven't forgotten why the BLM was formed. It was a consolidation of the Land office and Grazing Service. Since then, as you correctly pointed out, it is no longer doing the job it was chartered. Typical camel's nose under the tent. I dread to think of what our western lands will be like once the rest of the stinking animal gets in the tent.
The sad thing is unless you take a long hard honest look at yourself in the mirror you will never see yourself as others see you and the BLM needs to do some serious time in front of the mirror.
