LaVoy Finicum was a rancher and family man who lived in northern Arizona. As he had watched the feedoms of this great land of America being eroded away through unconstitutional legislation and outright thievery, he decided to do more than sit idly by. He wrote this novel in an effort to teach the principles of "natural law," to show that certain truths are "self-evident" and that our rights come to us from God and are "inalienable," meaning they cannot be given away or taken away.

John Locke (England, 1632-1704)was a physician, statesman, and political philosopher who expressed the radical view that government is morally obliged to serve people, namely by protecting life, liberty and property. He insisted that when government violates individual rights, people may legitimately rebel.

A recent example of this type of behavior was demonstrated when the Federal Government sought to take away the grazing rights from LaVoy's friend and neighbor, Cliven Bundy. This they did by force of arms. It was only when the common man stood up, willing to meet force with force, that those rights were preserved.

It was time to back up talk with action.
