Just Wondering IF...................................

All hail the "Protection of Our Freedom" that just happened Utah. All those Freedom Loving Americans, coming together to protect a cattle rancher in Utah from the evil over reaching power of "The Government".

But now comes the question.

All that "Private Land" that the Keystone XL Pipeline would be built. All that land that owned by Ranchers, Farmer, Homes. The families that have lived on that land for over a hundred years.

Will the same RWer's that carried loaded firearms pointed at Law Enforcement Officers in the name of that Cattleman's "Freedom", will these Men and Women who so strongly in that Freedom that they would threaten violence fellow Americans. Will they be as ready, willing and able to defend the lands threatened by the "Eminent Domain" claims of "The Government"?

Will these same "Freedom Loving Americans" stand with the land owners against "Government Over Reach" or will they change their minds yet again and support the Government taking the land that will be used by the Government for the support of Oil Companies?

IF protecting a Conservative Cattle Rancher in Utah from the U.S. Government is all kinds of fine, well, right and good then being willing to do the same for Land Owners threatened by Eminent Domain because the Government wants land for the Keystone XL .

To date, that ain't happening.

The pipeline is owned by TransCanada, not the U.S. Government... what is your point?

Does TransCanada have the power to run pipeline over your property or do they need the US Government?

Most of the Keystone Pipeline will be routed on existing right of ways.

The pipeline is owned by TransCanada, not the U.S. Government... what is your point?

A judge in Lamar County, Texas, ruled Wednesday night that TransCanada’s Keystone XL pipeline has the right of eminent domain, rejecting a plea by farm manager Julia Trigg Crawford and dealing a blow to landowners and environmentalists who have been trying to block construction of the pipeline.
