The Minutemen did spot very few illegals in this area, I thought all along THEY were the reason few were crossing. It was pretty dead while they were here, few illegals and few or no drug smugglers caught. BUT, within hours after they left this area yesterday a load of marijuana was caught after a high speed chase and smuggler wrecked- I heard 800 pounds. Then today 2 groups of illegals were found in this area, totaling about 30 in all. That is just what I have heard of since they left.
Keep in mind the Border Patrol and LE are still here in numbers and the Army is helping the BP here right now. The only thing that changed in the last two days is the Minutemen leaving. Proof enough to me that they did a great job here.
I also want to say they are a great group of people. I did not get to personally meet many of them, but I sent food to their HQ, and some of them camped in our horse pasture. Never had better neighbors, and the lady who takes care of the building they used for HQ went to clean it today- she said they left it cleaner than she has ever seen it, no need to clean. I want to thank them for coming here, and they said they may come back in April- I will be happy to welcome them back if they do.
I have no idea where you developed that idea, but let Me hasten to assure you that if you attempt to espouse that position as some manner of defence in a court of law you will be spending a great deal of time in the Greybar Hotel as a direct result of such an utterance.
Hey Tammy..I was one of those campers and served for 10 days...I want to THANK YOU...you guys were very nice to let us use your building...and for giving us great food and Sunday Brunch....I learned a lot about your state..the immigration problem...and made a few friends...and even bought a little jewerly at the store...I hope we don't have to come back..but if we do..I will return..Thanks again...
""The alien smugglers and drug dealers we now face don't care about anything or anybody. They are ruthless" and the "aliens are much different," said Mr. Been, 48. "They're tearing down our fences, destroying our water tanks, breaking into our homes, slaughtering our cattle, stealing our horses and threatening our families," "
They are MUCH different than 10 years ago. Half of them are scum!
No thanks needed to me, you guys were here to help us!! I kept telling Wanda to ask you all if any of you were Freepers, I think she thought it was an insult or something so she wouldn't ask.LOL she just didn't understand, though I tried to explain FR to her.
Were you one of the campers in the horse pasture W of town?? If so I hope our horses and dogs didn't drive you nuts- when we realized what a pain they were being we moved them. Those horses are such pets I am surprized they didn't move in someone's tent.
I was really busy while you guys were here, but if you come back- let me know ahead of time by Freepmail if I can do anything to help you guys out.
Doesn't this guy read the official press releases...

I think the last time ranchers tried defending their property, they were sued by the ILLEGALS and ended up having to give their ranch to them.
I think this bears repeating...thanks, Tammy.

In that case, we clearly need laws that recognize and explicitly enumerate (and thus protect) the rights of ranchers to defend their own land. Ranchers and other homeowners in the most affected areas need to band together en masse and lobby for specific, written proposals in group meetings with their legislators. Numbers talk. So do letters to the editor of local papers.
Just say exactly that to your U.S. Senator!
Rugged deadly area, Hidalgo County ?? I still have some friends on the Hildago sherrif department.....
Just too the west of Rodeo is primo pig hunting . And it would be prime coyote route as their are wild game watering holes maintained by the Bunny Cops and it is re-friggin-mote area with lots of shelter for folks afoot.....
They can walk that ridge north and use I-10 for a corridor pickup point easily.
Stay Safe !
Simple yet extremely difficult for landowners or not due the PC pandering of the criminals who hide beind the race card....
Good post Bill !.....Stay safe !
I'm sure that would be a fair fight. Let's see, thousands of government lawyers, judges and other lackeys against one lone rancher. Yep sounds fair to me.

"Who are YOU kidding? ;-)"
I've heard so much of that crap since the sixties I could write press releases for them.
Thank you, thank you,thank you!
