Yeah, but allowing cattle to graze on land they've been grazing on for 100 years keeps states from starting campaigns to take it back. I'm not suggesting that selling to the states is a good idea. I am suggesting that taking _away_ traditional land rights is causing states to push to take ownership of the land.
The BLM has not traditionally been enemies of the people using the land. The antagonism is a very new phenomenon.
