Nevada State Constitution
http://www.leg.state.nv.us/const/nvconst.html
"That the people inhabiting said territory do agree and declare, that they forever disclaim all right and title to the unappropriated public lands lying within said territory, and that the same shall be and remain at the sole and entire disposition of the United States.........." So, if I'm reading this right, from it's very inception Nevada recognized that land "unappropriated" by anyone else, remains the property of the U.S. government. (Explains why the federal government holds so much land in Nevada.) So, this proves Bundy is even more deeply wrong than I previously thought. Any thoughts? Dave |
You're absolutely right. The Federal government (and not Bundy's family) bought the land from Mexico after the Mexican War and these provisions of their constitution were a condition of them entering the union. It seems to me that any Nevada politician who supports Bundy is breaking his oath of office to adhere to the state's constitution.

About 4 days late to the party Dave, but it never hurts to keep trying to edumacate folks.

For better or worse a sense of entitlement by force and "Manifest Destiny" has dominated history and particularly ours here.
