You must learn to make a little bit finer distinctions. For example, letter Carriers are not law enforcement. But Postal Inspectors are. Many BLM types have no law enforcement powers. But Rangers do.

No I understand it. The BLM is responsible for administering the federal land. When someone is operating on federal land contrary to the laws or regulations, the BLM can go to court to have the court determine whether a violation has occurred. Bundy had the opportunity to litigate his position in court and lost. He went to the court of appeals and lost. Then he defied the court order. The federal marshalls have the authority to enforce court orders.

And actually there is a law enforcment wing in the Post Office - postal inspectors.

Regards,

D-Ray

Except no one seems to have told this to the governor or the senator. What a joke these people are putting politics ahead of the law.

Nevada's GOP governor, senator back Bundy ranch over federal law

LEOs indeed enforcing Federal law, and they may have long guns in the trunk. Poachers F.I. can be extremely dangerous to deal with as they already aren't playing by the rules and evasion by murder is a typical tactic.
Aside from prolific trash-dumping roadsides and wild areas and abandoning live and discarding dead animals and driving off, my fellow Southerners are known to poach deer and other game/non-game critters anywhere they can find them, including Federal land. They'd rather not be arrested and will avoid it any way they can, hypocrisy is a Bible belt bandolier.

I guess an LEO is only a "jackbooted Nazi thug" until he runs for sheriff as a Republican?

Then it's okay....

Not to change the subject; But I'm thinkin' it'll be kinda like that if they finally get to repeal Obamacare, rename it "The Great American Gipper Healthcare Plan" and reinstate it. All of the teababbger morons can thence heave a mighty sigh of relief.

You can be sure that if Romney had won the GOP nomination and election in 2008 and implemented the program that he, at the time, insisted was a model for the nation that the GOP would still be high-fivin' each other about a law virtually identical to Obamacare.

Moreover, if he had been elected, there would be no Tea Party, even if his entire agenda had been identical to Obama's (as it probably would have been as they're both moderates - one slightly left of center and the other slightly right of center).
