The BLM have to forcefully remove the cattle because the guy is an asshole who didn't pay his taxes. The group of "peaceful" protesters are self proclaimed members of the sovereign citizen movement who engage in terrorist activities against the federal government, along with tax evasion, drug and gun smuggling. The BLM are in the right to be overly cautious due to the nature of the players involved.
This group of individuals are also linked with the FLDS who also like to not pay taxes, along with banging little girls on religious compounds.
More often then not I side with personal freedom over government, but to support this group of nut jobs is a waste of outrage.
