Proof : The Government Believes 'Your Property Is Theirs'

‘THE BOTTOM LINE’
I have been following this
story since 2013 and it is just more proof that the government agencies such as
the BLM and the EPA believe they are above the law because they really believe
everything belongs to the Government Gestapo.
In 2013 a Wyoming rancher named
Andy Johnson was threatened by the gestapo so-called Environmental protection
Agency with $16 million in fines for not getting a permit from the Army corps
of Engineers and the Federal EPA. Instead, he followed the law and applied for,
and received a state permit for building a stock
pond for their cattle on ‘his own’ ranch.
NOTE: A Stock Pond, according to the EPA’s own rules is exempt from regulation. But
of course that doesn’t matter to the EPA Gestapo SS.
In 2013 The EPA fined the
Johnsons $37,500 per day, which at the time of the filing had passed $16
million.
In 2015 a lawsuit was filed
on behalf of the Fort Bridger, Wyoming, rancher Andy Johnson by officials of the (PLF) Pacific Legal Foundation. They
are seeking to assert his American
Constitutional property rights.
Note: As I said the EPA thinks everything
belongs to them. So one then needs to get permission from them to do anything
to their property
The lawsuit explained that federal law clearly exempts cattle
stock ponds from the rules of the EPA, which had filed a compliance order against Johnson.
Officials from the Pacific Legal Foundation has now announced
that the federal government has finally agreed after a 3 year battle, to
resolve the case, and a federal court has approved.
The court ruled unconditionally for the constitutional rights of the
Johnson’s. (Isn’t that unusual these
days???)
“… under the court ruling,
the Johnson family’s pond will remain; they won’t pay any fines; they don’t
concede any federal jurisdiction to regulate their pond; and the government
won’t pursue any further enforcement actions based on the pond’s construction,” the PDF legal team
revealed.
“This is a victory for common sense and the
environment, and it brings an end to all the uncertainty and fear that the
Johnson family faced,” said Jonathan Wood, a staff attorney with Pacific Legal
Foundation.
Ray Kagel, (a former federal regulator), explained how
the pond actually proved to be a benefit to the environment. It created
wetlands, habitat for fish and wildlife, and cleans the water that passes
through it. But of course the EPA cares
nothing about the environment, that’s not the real purpose of the EPA. The
purpose is only to control the people.
The federal government gestapo, who really believes that they
own and control everything in America, as has been exhibited by the BLM in Nevada
and Oregon as of late, responded with its threats of fines.
Johnson tried to reason with the government, without
success, so he filed the action that points out “stock ponds” are
expressly exempted from the EPA’s Clean Water Act. Something the government couldn’t care less about, because all
government agencies truly believe that they are totally exempt
Andy Johnson built this “stock pond”
to provide better access to water for the cattle on his ranch.
“This settlement is an unprecedented win for the Johnson family,
and a win for the environment,” said Wood. “Under it, the Johnsons will pay no fine.
They will not lose their property. They will not have to agree to federal
jurisdiction or a federal permit, which would have surely entailed onerous
conditions. In effect, the government will treat the pond as an exempt stock
pond, in exchange for any further improving on the environmental benefits he
has already created.”
Johnson, in a statement released by the PLF, said, “This
is a huge victory for us as well as private property owners across the country. The next family that
finds itself in our situation, facing ominous threats from the EPA, can take
heart in knowing that many of these threats will not come to pass. If, like us, you stand up
to the overreaching bureaucrats, they may very well back down.”
THE BOTTOM LINE: Finally
someone with the guts to stand up to the Federal Gestapo and a Law firm willing
to take on the Government Tyrants. This
is truly an unprecedented win against the tyranny of the American autocracy. Now all we have to do is abolish the unconstitutional
Federal EPA and the BLM.
I challenge anyone to show
me the U.S. Constitutional law that allows the Federal Gestapo to control the
air, water, and land in America.
The 10th Amendment clearly says “it is up to the States respectively or to the people.”
NOT THE FED…
But as I previously said, “every Government agency believes it is not subject
to the law.”
That’s TYRANNY my friend.
The
question that I now have is: Will the Criminal EPA Gestapo obey this ruling by
the court and leave the Johnson’s alone.
Or will it continue to go fishing for, and pursue some other possible EPA
violation that they can again harass the Johnson’s with? I ask that because
without penalizing the EPA for a violation of their own law they lose nothing
by continued harassment. I can testify firsthand about this…
