ANOTHER BUNDY RANCH TYPE OF STANDOFF BREWING IN SOUTHERN OREGON BETWEEN MINERS AND THE BLM
Locked And Loaded
April 14, 2015
For the past several years, the miners from the Galice Mining District about 3o minutes west of Grants Pass, Oregon, have been arguing over who has the rights to the minerals in the ground around Galice Creek.
The Galice mining district is compiled of a number of claims, owners and miners and has been in continuous operation since the early 1870’s, which makes it one of the longest running operations in the US. This specific operation predates the BLM bureaucracy by many decades in fact.
The area in question has produced in excess of 10 million ounces of gold since its conception, and geologists estimate that only 10% of the gold in the ground has been removed, which makes this area highly sought after by any standard. It is said that children find gold with their hands in the creeks to this day.
BLM has made several attempts to disband the operation of the sugar pine mine through multiple unsubstantiated stop orders and now a cease and desist order. The owners of this mine have spent tens of thousands of dollars to date requesting documents, researching the claims of the BLM and preliminary attorney fees.
The sugar pine has made requests to produce the official rulings that show they are in violation which have gone unanswered. The simple reason given by the BLM is that “they say so”! The BLM claims that the mine has no surface rights to the area and in turn says that all structures and equipment need to be removed. The BLM also claims that this violation is grounds for the operation to cease and tunnels filled in. The mine predates more recent rulings about surface rights so the sugar pine feels that the new ruling is not applicable to this specific situation.
Late last week, BLM officials accompanied by Josephine County Sheriff deputies issued a 'cease and desist order' to the district without any official ruling by the courts. Specifically, the issue is not even scheduled to be heard in court until later in the year. The order has given the mine until April 25th to remove all equipment, buildings and supplies from the location. Local BLM officials have threatened to burn the buildings down if they are not removed by the date.
The owners of the sugar pine have stated that they will fully disobey the order as they claim that it is illegal and invalid. A call for assistance to the Oath Keeper’s has been made and there is no intention to leave the area by the deadline.
This issue has far reaching implications. The outcome from this issue and the court ruling to come will effect all of America. The issue at hand is not just about the Galice Miners and the gold in the ground, but more about what the 'government' says you can do with the ground in your control. These miners have the rights to the minerals in the ground and the 'government' wants that changed.
What comes next could effect every American. What if your backyard has a specific mineral that the 'government' values? By any means, can they come in and tell you that you can not grow your broccoli on your land because it absorbs this “special” mineral?
The bigger picture would effect farmers. What if gold, oil or something like uranium was found under a farmer’s corn crop? Does the 'government' have the right to those minerals and have the ability to over ride your use of your own land?
This issue will have the ability to dictate the future use of our public and private lands.

Again, here is another issue that I wish I could be there for. With a small handful of simple documents, this could be stopped right in it's tracks. BLM has no grounds. The mining company has all the grounds (no pun intended). Without a court order, they can't do anything. The very threat to burn down the buildings should NOT go unanswered. That is terroristic threatening, threat of violence an threat of vandalism. Get the person whose name is on that court order and start a private prosecution, holding them directly responsible (not the BLM, a fictitious entuty). The PERSON who signed any orders is the one to go after. (Think Nuremburg. . .) Once they get your documents, if they proceed, you can shut their life completely DOWN using a commercial lien. Include in it that anyone who has taken an oath to defend . . .(you know the drill) who sits idly by and lets this unjust, unconstitutional, in humane and utterly UNLAWFUL (not illegal, there is a difference) act to go on, automatically becomes an accessory to the crime.
Get that guy by the balls and everyone associated with him and SQUEEZE!
Not the BLM. They are a fictitious entity, and as such, cannot do anything without a human being putting hand to pen. That HUMAN BEING is the focus of your commercial lien. Here is some preliminary info to get started with a commercial lien process. There is far more info out there so do your research before doing anything.

You must always be TRUTHFUL with your claims and have personal, verifiable, documented PROOF (no heresay is allowed) that the HUMAN did something to you or anything associated with you.
Drive carefully!

Years ago in England there was a major rebellion which lead to the RIGHT TO ROAM being made lawful. People have got to stand up for themselves.
Those miners are not agents of the government. They do not work for the government. So there for they are not subject to follow any statutory laws. These miners jurisdiction is of the common law. Where they have gid given inheirted rights and freedoms to the land and resources. The blm is harming these miners rights.
Our Federal Government gave away our Natioal Parks to the U.N. (UNESCO) years ago.....
Just because the Federal Government gave away something that was NOT theirs does NOT mean that the beneficiaries of that GIVEAWAY will get or are entitled to their SO CALLED prize. The only way that happens if we allow the Chinese or whomever to take what is NOT given by the owner is if we allow it to happen.
