Entangled in a spat with the government over the practice of prescribed burning on their family ranch, the Hammond family has evidentially been labeled terrorists, and sentenced to five years in federal prison.
Prescribed burning is a preemptive move made to curtail the threat of forest fires. By thinning out the amount of vegetation on land in a controlled way, ranchers have been able to reduce the risk of serious, uncontrollable fires on their land.
While the Hammond Family has admitted to certain fires initially becoming larger than intended, all fires were privately put out, and no federal money was spent on the endeavors.
Regardless, they were still arrested.
The government’s actions here are not without precedent. Truth and Action has previously reported that the Bundy family, who own land adjacent to none other than Harry Reid, have been the subject to severe federal harassment. Other ranches have similarly complained of constant, federal oversight and harassment as well.
The Bundy family have had enough, and penned an open letter detailing the injustice of the Hammond family that you can read on the next page:
This is such a sad situation when a government will stoop so low as to take a life deliberately like a school bully just to show us all that they could and get by with it. Our goverment has turn into a bunch of thugs who twist things around to suit themselves just like those Muslim thugs are doiing overseas and the way it is going our government will be as bad or worst than those folks in killing our people. It is sad to think that your own government is worst than these rapist killer beheader Muslims that even kill kids. Well ranchers watch our for your kids. our feds probably will target them next.
this is a disgrace to the doj and the AG, this family was standing up for their constitutional rights and the criminals sent them to jail, this must be reversed and the criminals in the doj removed from office and held accountable.
Tell me who they terrorized. Criminal government.

The government can do what ever they want, our land is lost. History goes into a circle. We’re in the twilight of the Republic.
The “real reason”, George, is that you have never read U.N. Agenda 21, the Constitution, Communist Manifesto, or Obamas 86th executive order (which is highly unconstitutional). His 86th executive order on Rural Development fullfils the first plank of Commmunism- the abolishment of private property; and that outlined in the 1992 U.N. Agenda 21- written by communist. Just because you have personal problems and hate Republicans, and the farmers and ranchers who grow your food, is not a good enough reason to abandon the Constitution.
Government out of control.
Yet the Feds burn cows , houses etc.

And rounding up the free horses for the cattle ranchers and for corporations that want the mineral rights. That is all they want.
Remember that is our land. Not BLM’s land.
