The way our government treats OUR wild horses is completely UNACCEPTABLE!!!!These awesome, amazing,magnificent and beautiful horses belong to ALL AMERICANS, NOT to our apparently ignorant government to do with as "they" see fit!! I, for one, have had it, WE NEED TO RAISE OUR VOICES, these horses belong in the wild. If we all stuck together on this urgent issue, maybe "they/the BLM" would actually take notice that we mean business, and return the horses to their natural habitats, and RESTORE FULL PROTECTIONS for them!!

A great documentary it was. So horrible the way the BLM conducted this roundup. Several horses including Cloud lame, some tied up in the pens 90 degree heat running horses and foals for miles from way up on top of the mountains. Barbaric but then the BLM truly just does not care. They are above the law and above reproach.

Personally, I think all the people at BLM,EPA, etc., set up by the Bush administration, are above having half a brain!!! One of the most recent stories that I noted and signed had to do with these agencies (I use the term loosely), attempting to put out the large quantities of the most dangerous chemicals we know to kill the prairie dogs. This has all been done before - Something Is Getting In Our Way - KILL IT.
During or after the prairie dogs suffer and die, they are naturally eaten by insects, small animals, coyotes, Eagles, Condors, through the entire food chain barely lessening its potency. I recall such a killing in the early 70's: The entire ecology of the region was wrecked and the population of Eagles was decimated. These Agencies that you have in the US can be very dangerous when the Constitution is blatantly ignored or subverted. Isn't that why you all can wear a gun, to protect yourselves against attempted 'coups', rogue government bureaucracy.?

The BLM is not about the concern of wildlife, it is strictly devoted to how lands can better serve man; of course this is always at the expense of whatever life currently occupies that land.
