I mean if they did win, that means pretty much Illegals can do whatever they want when they cross the border. you can argue that border patrol is violating their rights etc.
I agree. The fact that this suit has even been brought sets a very dangerous precedent. I don't know the laws in NM, but here I have the right to kill someone who violates my home in order to protect my life and property. The rancher should have the same right, particularly with the history he's had will illegal aliens.
