I think its funny/sad how people coming from a mainstream (left/right) political mindset usually lack any kind of clear principles when it comes to property rights. For example, people from a liberal perspective understandably get pissed off about families getting thrown from their land so the XL keystone oil pipeline can be built. While those coming from a conservative standpoint dont seem to care and tend to degrade the people who are fighting for their property rights. On the other hand, when a property rights battle like the one at Bundy Ranch happens, these two groups switch sides, ignoring the principles at work. The conservative leaning people then get understandably pissed about the transgression, but those coming from a liberal standpoint dont seem to care, and tend to degrade the people who are fighting for their property rights. In both instances the same violation of property rights is occurring....and no one seems to notice their common enemy, and their common goals, at least in the mainstream dialogue.
