So Executive Order 12548 was set into motion back in 1986. (http://www.reagan.utexas.edu/archiv.....986/21486b.htm), Mr. Bundy's claims go back it seems to the 1990's meaning President Reagan's Executive Order trump Mr. Bundies claims. In my research on the Taylor Grazing Act of 1934 (http://www.blm.gov/wy/st/en/field_o...../taylor.1.html), I see nothing that indicates a Grandfather clause for this. So based on that Mr. Bundy does not have a claim, and thus is in violation of the law. This is a very tricky issue and it has not helped matters that Militia groups from both in State and out of State came forth to defend the actions of a man, who very much could be in the wrong. The Federal Courts have weighed in on this matter and have declared with in the legal limits. Then Mr. Bundy is illegally grazing his cattle on what is technically Federal Lands that are set aside for public use. Setting aside the Desert Tortoise claim for the moment. As we have probably done more damage with all the Nuclear testing and Tourist sight seeing going then a bunch of bovines could.
