BLM Violates Laura Leigh's First Amendment Rights - More Horses Die in Bloody Rounup

Yesterday, 07/17/10, Laura Leigh (Herd Watch) was denied her constitutional rights by the BLM to observe the roundup of the Owyhee horses. In a court hearing on Thursday, 07/16/10, Judge Hicks, evoked the First Amendment and granted Laura Leigh the right to observe the roundup.  When she arrived at the roundup site she was denied access and told that she was not on the BLM's list of attendees.

The BLM continues to hold themselves above the law and do whatever they please.  Just to briefly reiterate, at the hearing on Thursday, Bob Abbey convinced Judge Hicks that the Owyhee horses needed to be rounded up because they were dying of dehydration.  Yesterday, Laura Leigh found watering holes fenced off preventing any access to the wild horses. The horses, of course, are dehydrated because they cannot get to the watering holes.  Again, a tangled web of lies and deceit woven by the BLM just so they can remove our precious horses for El Paso (Ruby Pipeline), BP and cattlemen.
