19. My biggest fear when this land was promised was
that it would get them out of the ditch, they would ramrod the legislation through making it illegal for them to protest along that road and then the person that promised the land would evict them and they would have nowhere to go.
I didn't want to show my pessimism, but am wondering if that was the plan.
I wonder if they kept SOME sort of presence in the bar ditches even after they went to the land if that would keep them grandfathered in.
I don't think they could evict them out of the ditch, I just think the next group would not be allowed to protest there.
Just an observation.
I'm sure that Fred has been threatened. If he hasn't been threatened, then he has been paid well not to let them on the land, if that is the case.:shrug:
