Effective Usurpation by our Federal Government (11-03-11)
This is an article by:
Sheriff Gil Gilbertson

disappointment of the direction our leaders have taken us. The negative affect of their, often self-serving, decisions are
caustically evident in our daily lives.
This paper is a result of a clash with the federal USFS law enforcement in this County, from citizens complaining of what can
only be described as harassment and violations of their rights. The first time I approached the USFS the door closed regarding
any discussion. The USFS advised me to file a Freedom of Information (FOI) request. Apparently, their legal advisor instructed
them not to discuss any issues with me. All of which caused me to posture for a jurisdictional confrontation. After publishing an
article in the local media I was invited back to discuss the issue. Most of my questions were answered except for one: “Where
does the USFS’s authority come from?” The answer(s) were surprising.
