If you've been watching the news lately, you may have heard about Roger Barnett, a rancher in Arizona who has turned over 12,000 illegal immigrants to the Border Patrol since 1998.
These ILLEGAL immigrants vandalized the ranch, killed the rancher's animals, and stole from the rancher. So it makes perfect sense that the immigrants are now suing the rancher.
This man defended his property and enforced the laws of the United States of America. He used the threat of guns and big dogs.....SO WHAT!!! It's called trespassing, you can't do that.
If I tried to immigrate illegally like that to a host of other countries I would expect to be held up at gun point for breaking the laws.
My biggest concern is that we will give ILLEGAL immigrants rights under our Constitution. If we start down that slippery slope there is no way of knowing how far we will go to protect the interests ILLEGAL aliens.
I don't believe in harming them or denying emergency medical care (which costs the American taxpayer a pretty penny), but I do know it's not right for these ILLEGAL aliens to trespass on private land, leave a mess, and then sue somebody else.
Heck, I'll just say it. Why can't we as Americans enforce our laws?
Is it just me or is there a standing issue?
