The first in an unfortunately continuing series of what happens when liberalism occurs:
An Arizona man who has waged a 10-year campaign to stop a flood of illegal immigrants from crossing his property is being sued by 16 Mexican nationals who accuse him of conspiring to violate their civil rights when he stopped them at gunpoint on his ranch on the U.S.-Mexico border.
Roger Barnett, 64, began rounding up illegal immigrants in 1998 and turning them over to the U.S. Border Patrol, he said, after they destroyed his property, killed his calves and broke into his home.
His Cross Rail Ranch near Douglas, Ariz., is known by federal and county law enforcement authorities as “the avenue of choice” for immigrants seeking to enter the United States illegally.
Trial continues Monday in the federal lawsuit, which seeks $32 million in actual and punitive damages for civil rights violations, the infliction of emotional distress and other crimes. Also named are Mr. Barnett’s wife, Barbara, his brother, Donald, and Larry Dever, sheriff in Cochise County, Ariz., where the Barnetts live. The civil trial is expected to continue until Friday.
Here we have the confluence of liberal ideology on immigration, property rights, civil rights and judicial activism. To think that an American citizen can be hauled into court by illegal immigrants shows just how out of touch liberalism is with reality – and only because liberalism exists is there anything other than laughter at any foreigner, illegally come into the nation, bringing such a suit. They have no standing – they have no business being here; they should be arrested for harassing the rancher, not accorded respect in our courts.
Thank you, liberalism.
