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 was not handled right at all
I ‘ve neve heard of a terrorist rancher hmmm that’s interesting I thoufhtbthey hadvsvdifferent profile I can’t believe this even happened this is just the disconnect that had been going on
What stupid$#%&!@*jury would convict these folks? If they didn’t have a jury “of their peers”, they should have.
The government is soooooo corrupt
American citizens declared “terrorists” by our own government!
Real world terrorists, not so much!
Had enough?
I sure as hell have!
Then Obama, Congress, and s few hundred thousand of their friends should also be there for treason.
I’m sorry I know I’m off topic but Please read and share.. I’m a grandmother that’s angry and heart broken at what child protective services and the foster home did to my grandson Malakai Deese the main stream media will NOT pick up my published story. http://medicalkidnap.com/2015/11/08/north-carolina-child-medically-kidnapped-starving-to-death-in-foster-care/
Child Protective Services are very corrupted the foster parents have abused my grandson and yet they get a one way ticket free to abuse, if a parent had done this the child would have been taken out of the home but my grandson has been abused. Child protective services uses title IV funding to kidnap children from INNOCENT FAMILIES , CPS is a adoption mill. Truly abused children left in the home and those are the children that you see on TV that are terribly abused and or murdered because they are considered damaged goods and not adoptable CPS leave those children in the home and DOSE NOT CARE. The media needs to STOP hiding the TRUTH about what’s truly going on in America.
Out GOVERMENT is the ones that’s the terrorist
Not right!!
Support our ranchers…. Protect them. Vote Trump get them a pardon.
