Report from Pine Nut Wild Horse Roundup #TWO

Grass Roots Horse will have more info also

This mare, along with 111 other horses were rounded up yesterday in the Dayton area of the Pine Nut Range. This morning the Bureau of Land Management's plan was to release all the mares and leave all 22 foals behind. Foals were transported from the Lohanton temporary holding area to Palomino Valley Center. After public outrage plans were changed and the wet mares have been transported to Palomino Valley to match up with their foals for release early next week. Alan Bitner of the Carson BLM expressed his concern along with many community members about this mornings plan. He seemed relieved as he informed the public that the foals would not be permanently removed from their mothers. the mare before this one fell jumping off & this girl said I'm gonna make it Pine Nut while BLM says that is all the horses to be released, after they leave, another trailer shows up !

Report from Pine Nut Wild Horse Roundup VERY SERIOUS !

 

Last night word came that there would be no roundup of wild horses today.  BLM claimed it was a day for treating the horses with fertility drugs and the public was not allowed, since the horses were very skittish. The Pine Nut horses by all accounts are quite accustomed to people as they are very popular among the people who live nearby. BLM stated that Friday would be a release day for the 122 horses they captured yesterday. HOWEVER, it is another BLM lie. Word came while I was on the phone with Laura that the BLM was releasing horses today ! She rushed out to be there. She arrived along with other reporters with no sign yet of the BLM. She called back within a short time with very disturbing news.  There are 22 foals who were captured WHO WILL NOT BE RELEASED WITH THEIR MOTHERS.  The BLM states they "cannot match the foals to their mares" and are not even going to attempt it.  The foals have already been shipped to Palomino Valley facility.

This is an outrageous situation and please make calls to Mark Struble 775-885-6107 he is the person who has made this call and is responsible.

Laura will be sending me pictures as the situation unfolds. Please spread the word and make the calls.

Need Help in Arizona- this is what happens to ‘protected wild burros’

 

In a few short days, the government agency, Bureau of Land Management, for no explained reason  will target exclusively wild burros in Arizona, Cibola-Trigo herd. The ancestors of the wild burros truly built America. If anyone knows burros or donkeys the horror of their fate at hands of contractor sadists will hit you hard, especially if you look at the three pictures at the end of this page. They, nor we, deserve this, and they offer no acceptable reason, no reasonable explanation and we are expected to foot the bill, again, for this massacre. I will not pay for government sanctioned animal torture and abuse. I will not.
 
Now we see clearer still why BLM fights so hard to keep citizens and journalists out of viewing range even though Grass Roots Horse/Laura Leigh as plaintiff won the legal challenge that we have a right to witness and report on our government in action. 
We are not giving up,  nor are we going away ! This is too important.  Grass Roots Horse is the people. We are not a big entity intent on harvesting donor bucks to further self serving interests. Wild Horse and wild burro roundups must stop, public granted full access from roundup to long tern holding. Video cameras in all government and government contracted holding facilities. Government/BLM/DOI come clean on what is really slated for public lands and water rights.  
 
If you have any questions please e-mail me at ffMo@grassrootshorse.com

Please bring cameras, videos, phones, all manner of electronic capabilities to get the word out on what is happening. Watch loading of trailers and if possible where they actually end up, how many get on, how many get off.

I am MyFlyingCloud on twitter, tweet me and we will make sure you roundup tweets go far and wide.

GRASS ROOTS HORSE PRESS RELEASE Leigh v Salazar –July 31,2010

On July 30, 2010 Laura Leigh re-filed Contempt of Court charges against Ken Salazar, Secretary of the Department of the Interior, Bob Abbey, Director of the BLM and Ron Wenker, Nevada State Director of the BLM in regard to what BLM calls the “Tuscarora wild horse gather.” The BLM continually refers to the three herd management areas of Owyhee, Rock Creek and Little Humboldt under one umbrella name of Tuscarora. The judge, at the time of hearing earlier motions, recognized that Tuscarora was three herds and not one as BLM would like people to believe.

 

Adding to what seems like a deliberate move to create confusion, every day the gather schedules change. At present the BLM website, touted in BLM press releases as the only place for correct information, has two completely different gather schedules posted. If a person really wants to know the true schedule they have to contact the appropriate field offices.  It would seem to even the casual observer to be a shell game of now you see it, now you don’t.    

 

The judge denied the original motion to hear the case based on the parameters set forth in a statute known as the Winters standard.  This is the standard by which actions seeking injunctive relief are judged on their merit. On July 28, 2010, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals modified its position on the test used to determine the element, “likelihood of success on the merits” when

granting or denying injunctive relief under the Winters decision. The circuit court reaffirmed the use of its sliding scale method, finding it consistent with Winters.

 

The law change opened the door for the re-filing under the new guidelines.  “We are not going away,” said Laura Leigh, plaintiff in the lawsuit brought about through the support of Grass Roots Horse, a citizen action group.  Support for Laura Leigh’s court action is coming in from people all over the country. “Some people are donating to further the cause with $3.00 donations,” said Maureen VanDerStad, member of Grass Roots Horse. “That tells it all right there. People are so fed up with the mismanagement of the wild horses and burros that they want to be a part of doing something to stop it. The blatant disregard for our First Amendment rights by BLM and the cruel and inhumane treatment of the wild horses, which belong to the American people, has spurred the movement on with a vengeance,” she further states.

 

Laura Leigh is an artist, author and journalist who is best known for her work in documenting wild horses.  She is the founder and director of Herd Watch, a citizen group that monitors the actions of the BLM and the Wild Horse and Burro Program.  Full reports documenting range conditions in herd management areas and the condition of the horses themselves are conducted by Herd Watch with a meticulous eye for detail.

 

Yesterday at the Nevada State Legislative meeting, the main focus was on the implications of the Western Watershed Organization’s multi-million dollar settlement with Ruby Corporaton, representing Ruby Pipeline.  The Wild Horse and Burro Program came into the discussion and Laura Leigh was there to set the record straight.  “Sitting in the audience it was really interesting to see the cattlemen bringing up the very same issues of the difficulties of dealing with the BLM that the wild horse advocates have been dealing with for years. If people do not support accountability in government, it is easy to see how that failure to demand accountability and transparency can turn against them,” Laura Leigh said.

Senator Reid Has Power to Stop Wild Horse Removal- tell his supporter Carole King- Idaho Wild Horse Advocate Rally- Hey Harry !

Good evening folks -attached is the map for our HEY HARRY RALLY - where we remind Senator Reid that has the power to stop the BLM's removal of the Wild Mustangs.
 
He has that power but he choses not to use it. In fact the infamous Senator Burns still claims Harry and he wrote the amendment in Harry's office - the amendment that gutted the 1971 Free-Roaming Wild Horse and Burro Act. And Burns doesn't have much to gain by claiming that Harry instigated it. Burns lost his senate seat, Harry denied he was in on the amendment.
 
I used to believe Harry but not now; not as he stands back and pretends to work with Madeline Pickens and she says no he won't. So we need Harry's supporter Carole King - yes that Carole King - to know it. Carole is an ardent supporter of the Idaho Mustangs. She could stop raising money for Harry until he cancels congressional support for the arrogant actions of the BLM. But it is about as hard getting that message through to Carole - even on facebook - as it is difficult to get through to Harry when you are looking him right in the eye.

So we will be out with special posters, when Carole kicks off 'A VOLUNTEER DAY OF ACTION AT THE SUMMERLIN OFFICE HEADQUARTERS". Now either she doesn't know Harry like we know Harry (try working with his staff to get ecotourism and wild horse/burro preservation) or Carole is naive. We will make this a throwdown to Senator Reid - either you help end the outrageous roundups or you don't get votes from horse huggers. Like us.
 
So come on out at 9am to 11am tomorrow, Saturday July 17 at 810 South Durango, at the parking lot of a little office complex corner of Durango and Grandbank - that's south of Alta and north of Charleston. You might want to wear a hat and bring water. Wear red clothes if you can for the blood that will be spilled Saturday as the BLM rounds up 500 horses "to save them dying of thirst" as they told the judge Thursday in Reno.
 
See you all,

Tuscarora Wild Horse Lawsuit-July 16, 2010

 

There are so many things to be very happy about in this case so far. This judge is listening to us, he read all of the testimonies and actually understood that while BLM wanted him to believe that Tuscarora was one round up it was actually three roundups- judge understood that, which is why we still will have hearings on the Rock Creek and Little Humboldt.

The judge is allowing BLM to roundup the Owyhee horses because he believed their testimony that the horses would die. He does not want horse deaths on his hands. I would say that bodes very well for any roundups in foaling season. The judge is unfamiliar with the issue or BLM’s penchant for lying so he believed them.

So even though a so called ‘emergency’ roundup of the Owyhee horses is allowed, we cannot forget the superstar win, which is the upholding of our First Amendment right to witness and document what the government does to our horses on our public land.

The judge ruled the public cannot be denied although it can be limited in numbers. He ruled they cannot black out the area. That is a huge victory. It is the chink in the armor, the first of many to come. 

Also with the right to document the roundups comes the opportunity to prove that the BLM lied.

There will be TRO hearings for Rock Creek and Little Humboldt herd areas coming up shortly.  

Hopefully with witnesses and cameras on the Owyhee roundup, possibly no horses will die. The judge has left many doors open for us to set additional precedents.

This is a momentous day.  More will follow. Tonight I will drink to the Tuscarora wild horses who have died as a direct result of the arrogance and disregard for life and law by the Bureau of Land Management and their contractors who do their evil with them and enjoy the suffering they create.

Tonight I drink to the Tuscarora Twelve. Long may they live.  

Grass Roots Activism Takes a Stand

Many people have asked me how this grassroots supported lawsuit to stop the Tuscarora roundup in Nevada cam about. 

I would like to share that and say this is just the beginning. 

Geographical location is not a hindrance to making a difference in the fight to save our wild horses. I took action right from kitchen counter.

Last week, when it came to my attention that no lawsuits were being filed to stop the Tuscarora roundup ( I just can’t call it a gather) grassroots activism took a stand.  Through networking, regular people were able to bring a lawsuit to stop the Tuscarora roundup and to make an argument that our First Amendment Rights are being violated by barring the public from witnessing and documenting what the government was doing to the horses on our public lands.  The argument that really got me fired up was the one that the BLM would be rounding up during foaling season.

Many newborn horses and pregnant and nursing mares would be stampeded along with the others. Babies and young horses who could not keep up would be left to die in the desert as the helicopters stampeded their mothers onward to capture pens.

All the horses would be driven over razor sharp volcanic rock.

As if what is being done to all our wild horses isn’t bad enough, this was too much to bear.

In record time we hired our own attorney to bring the suit with Laura Leigh, as a plaintiff with standing. Within 24 hours the papers were filed.

Through word of mouth, social networking sites, such as FaceBook and Twitter, we began to raise money for legal fees. People from all over the country who may have been less than pleased with the legal representation in the Calico case and the lack of lawsuits being brought to stop the roundups, joined forces by donating to our legal fund.  By being a grass roots group of individuals we are free to move fast, to keep our hands on the case and ensure that lawsuits are  being  brought on arguments that will win.  It is a time for action.  The goal is to challenge the BLM on every roundup from here on in. We have access to the expertise of the people who know the wild horse issue inside and out, are on the ground with eyewitness accounts. We have now and will always be sure to have legal representation that cannot be bought, co-opted or swayed from presenting the best case possible for our wild horses. 

Please join us. We are receiving no financial help from big organizations, and this is to our advantage for the above reasons.  We need funds to finish the Tuscarora case. The courts and congress are the only things that can stop the BLM from doing this to our horses. Congress won’t listen until we are successful in the courts. Our cases are good, really good, we have a shot at stopping this runaway train that is the BLM.

We have what may seem an ambitious goal but it is do able. Raising $100,000 would ensure we fight all roundups.  We have to give it a shot. Any help you can give will ensure the fight continues. If you may know of someone else who may help please ask them. This effects all citizens. The only place to donate to us and this endeavor is through www.grassrootshorse.com which has a link to PayPal where our address is donations@grassrootshorse.com and www.wildhorsesneedyou.com which links to the same PayPal address.

This is the only place to donate to our legal defense fund.

#MustangMedicine May 27th 10 pm EST on tweetchat- Energy Tapping

Energy tapping is a powerful tool for good. My first exposure to energy tapping was through a sports psychologist.  If you happen to find yourself at any sports competitions, observe closely and you will find there are people tucked away in quiet corners tapping away.  I found it to be so useful in many areas of life.

There is EFT, TFT, and Freedom Now as far as I can recall. There are short forms, long forms and variations. All have their place and I speak from experience when I say they are all effective.

For our purposes in #MustangMedicine I think the short form will be perfect and you may like an even shorter form I worked with during a wonderful session with @Jenuinehealing

If individuals are feeling it is not sufficient than further exploration of the long form and additional techniques may prove the key.

While it may seem on the surface that wild horses and their advocates are hitting brick walls, I have to say since joining forces in this way I am feeling the most peaceful, powerful and in control as I ever have in an out of control situation. I feel things changing on an energetic level and I am drawn to continue and expand upon it. America’s wild horses and the land they live on are too important.

I keep reminding myself that I cannot see what is happening behind the scenes and behind closed doors. I don’t know what the bigger plan is. Often times in my life when I was convinced of the way I wanted things to work out, a better way emerged when I allowed it to. Tapping helped.  Clearing the way for good things to happen for the wild horses and the people who care so much about their significance in what is happening in our world and in our lives.

This past week especially I have had to remind myself of that in regard to what is happening to America’s beloved wild horses at the hands of the government and some people. The lawsuit pending in federal court that would free the captured wild horses, at least those who have lived through their ordeal, was dismissed on a technicality. There were, in addition, some things that seemed pretty fishy and outright illegal, were popping up around the lawsuit ruling as well.

In light of these things it is important to use #MustangMedicine to its fullest. Wild horses are tough and they are tuned in. They are a shining example.

Much information is found on the web about energy tapping, here is a brief guide to the areas that you tap on and how to do it. You can’t go wrong.

I always begin with 2 things:

1 - I rate my discomfort on a scale of 1-10.  How much discomfort do I have with this issue/statement/affirmation. Give it a number.

2 - I rub the area over my heart in a circular motion and say “even though I (state problem/issue), I deeply and completely love and accept myself” and then end with what is called a karate chop- which is tapping the sides of both side of your hands, palm side up on the pinky side.  If ever you feel discomfort, this single move will help a great deal.

Then I would do the short form (or long form of tapping or a new really simple version.) see sequences

Below are some ideas for examples of what you might say- be very freestyle and you‘ll be surprised at what happens. Things that may be blocking you will be begin to come up.

The Very Short Form- Tap on the top of your head and tap over your heart. While doing this you say positive statement or releasing statement.  Such as- I release the suffering of the wild horses…..I release my need for control of the situation facing the wild horses or my favorite- I choose to see that there is a positive outcome for the wild horses.

Regular Short Form: Tap on top of the head, above eyebrow-either one, side of the eye, under the eye, under the nose, the chin, the collarbone, under the arm. All the while you are tapping you are talking about the issue.

Other Examples -Such as – even though I hate the govt for what they are doing to our wild horses, I deeply and completely love and accept myself.  Even though I feel powerless……even though I feel angry…..even though I feel scared…….whatever you are feeling and work through it while tapping.

This is great for all areas of life and maybe the wild horses are bringing you there to be healed and freed.

They are freedom and power personified as well as how to live in harmony, which is exemplified in how they live in community.

When you are finished- Then rate how you feel on a scale of 1-10 and see if it has changed.

The idea is to free up emotions from a space and make room for change in the situation.   

For our purposes the long form would be too involved but I encourage everyone to learn it.

Try tapping or at least the heart rub and karate chop and you will be amazed at what they can do.

#MustangMedicine May 20,2010-10 pm EST on tweetchat-Focus Agenda

I thought it would be nice to begin the first #MustangMedicine group meeting with something very special.  

Please do these if you choose and at your leisure.

We will join together on Thursday’s beginning on May 20th in tweechat at 10 pm EST and 7 pm PST.

Use hashtag #MustangMedicine.

I would like to share two techniques which I believe can help us to send our love and positive thoughts to the wild horses, and to anyone involved with the horses and burros. The techniques will also help us open a line of communication from the wild horses to us and gain their wisdom to help us in our lives.

The techniques are valuable tools that can be used in any aspect of your life and possibly the situation that wild horses are facing reminds you of an area in your life that needs love and healing. The horses are our close allies and they are here to help us as well.

Then I would like to finish with any experiences that anyone would like to share on the vision quest I had written. I have heard from several people who had profound experiences with it. I reposted the vision quest at the bottom of this page for convenience.   

The first technique is opening the healing channel of compassion called heartlink to Angels and human heartlink. I learned the first one about 6 years ago. The second is a technique I learned about 17 years ago and is called the Golden Staircase. Both techniques have been of great help to me.

                     Heartlink to Angels

Opening the Healing Channel of Compassion

From: Integrated Energy Therapy by Steven J. Thayer, The Center of Being, Inc.

Heartlinks are a divine offering from Angel Ariel to humankind. A heartlink is an energy cord or channel that we establish between our heart center and the heart center of another. Heartlinks serve as a tool that fill us to the overflowing with integrated energy (the angel energy of compassion), and we then share this energy with others. There are two types of heartlinks, angelic and human.

An angelic heartlink is an energy cord we send vertically from our heart up through our throat, third eye and crown chakras, to connect with the heart of our angel of healing. Just follow this simple 5 step procedure to establish your heartlink

1.   Bring your awareness to your heart center

2.   In the way that is perfect and right for you, offer a prayer of gratitude to your higher power and to your angel of healing.

3.   Project a golden energy cord from your heart up through your throat, third eye and crown chakra and up into the highest realms of the universe with the intent of connecting to the heart of your own angel of healing.

4.   Start the flow of energy in the heartlink by sending the energy of love and gratitude up the heartlink to your angel.

Open your heart, and take in the love that your angel is sending to you. Your angel’s love will be ten times stronger than the love you sent. Bring the love into your heart, and let it continue to build until you feel the energy overflow.

Automatic Activation: Once you have performed these 5 steps, they will be instantly performed by your subconscious mind each time you touch your thumb to the middle finger of either hand.

 

                    Human Heartlink

A human heartlink is an energy connection that you establish with a human (animal) soul. The soul can be in the physical body or the realm of spirit. The steps to establish a human heartlink are as follows:

1.   Establish an angelic heartlink

2.   Bring to mind an image of the being to whom you are creating a human heartlink

3.   Send forth a golden energy cord from your heart to their heart.

4.   Start the flow of energy in the heartlink by sending the energy of love and gratititude from your heart over the heartlink to their soul.

Let the energy continue to flow down from your angelic heartlink, through  your heart and through your human heartlink.

 

                  Golden Staircase

In this technique you visualize yourself at the bottom of a tall golden staircase.  You ascend the steps of the golden stairs and at the top of the stairs there is a door. You open the door and see the person or being you wish to communicate with. You then speak with them, sharing your thoughts and feelings. It is as my dad used to say, heart speaks to heart. And it is a great was to communicate with someone when they are at a distance.

 

Vision Quest

The air is cool and clear as you set out on the path.  It meanders along ancient stone walls and as you walk along the grass carpeted path you feel a sense of purpose.  You are relaxed and calm but energized. 

The twigs and fallen leaves crunch under your feet in a rhythmic cadence.  You hear all the sounds of nature and with each step you feel more and more connected to your source.

 The path leads past rivers and waterfalls and opens up in a vast meadow.  As you cross the meadow you notice all the birds and animals peacefully co existing with you.  You become aware that you can see each and every blade of grass moving. 

You hear wild horses in the distance and are eager to follow where they are leading.  They take you to the edge of the meadow and you are now in a beautiful desert with skies of golden orange and clouds that seem to breathe with the earth. 

In the distance you see a faint campfire and are drawn to it.  The wild horses are leading you to the campfire. As you get closer you see there is a man sitting at the fire. He is surrounded by books and legal pads.  He seems relaxed but engaged in deep thought.  As you approach he sees you and smiles, genuinely happy to see you.  He stands and introduces himself to you – he will be hearing the legal case on the Calico Complex wild horses. 

He invites you to join him and recognizing you as someone who has understanding of the situation, he asks you to share your thoughts with him, so may have a better understanding. 

You share with him all your experiences with wild horses.  You share any and all experiences that you feel will help him make a wise, and if need be, a courageous decision in the case.   

There is all the time in the world for this exchange. He is listening and cares what you are saying.  He offers to share with you what he has written in his notes. 

You take time to listen to what he is sharing with you. 

When you feel the time is right you rise to leave.  He rises with you and you exchange a handshake or an embrace, with heartfelt gratitude that he has listened and shared. 

You take a moment or two to share your strength, courage and wisdom with him as he does with you.  As you leave for home, he sits again beside the fire and takes up his books.   The wild horses rejoin you.           

A nice addition to the vision quest could be to burn some sage which is a familiar smell to wild horses.
