Rancher charged in attempted stealing of elk horns from helicopter hunters

Because that’s what the hunter paid the state to kill the elk, which became his legal property once the tag is notched.

As a stated in this thread earlier, generational ranch family... that means connections and sympathizers. They only slapped the wrist because they had to do something. Should be a felony, no more firearms.

Oh I know WHY the Rancher was let off easy....it's always been that way in the US with privilege.

Hey, I'm a property owner and would love to rape and plunder the peons too- not really, it's not in my nature. If we are going to have any semblance of a legit judicial system we need to hold this rancher and his complicit wardens accountable.

Most times I sympathize with Farmers/Ranchers/ Landowners. People dumping trash on remote roads, and generally being slobs with no respect for private property rights. I get it.

This Ain't that. The rancher was no better than a common thief. How stupid, What was he trying to accomplish? A month in Jail with a hefty fine will send the message to these Ranchers. Then after that happens, start throwing some of these cheating politicians in Jail......nobody learns unless they go to jail.
