David Hinojosa, southwest regional counsel for the Mexican American Legal Defense & Educational Fund (aka: MALDEF), which represented the plaintiffs in the suit against Barnett,After the Ninth Circuit Court’s ruling, MALDEF released a statement that said: “Today's ruling sends the strong message that vigilantes will not be tolerated in Arizona.”
So Barnett is a "vigilante"? Oh really. I guess Señor Hinojosa never heard of Property Rights. Like 'Private Property, No Trespassing, KEEP OUT'.
And I have news for Señor Hinojosa, there's a Warning sign I saw that I've been meaning to get which would apply to these illegals, or any 'trespassers'. It goes something like:
Warning! If I Find You Here TonightWe have allowed to have these enemies within like this MALDEF and the SPLC working to destroy the USA and the centuries old concept of Property Rights. Per these traitors all land that adjoins OUR southern border is 'free range'. Open for anybody to do anything they want. And I assume that if the illegals find a spot on someone's ranch and liked it, they could build a cabin and SQUAT there and let the Gringo pay the taxes and clean up costs. And even provide indoor plumbing Free of Charge! (not that any of these people would know what to do with it)
You'll Be Found Here In The Morning
It's not private property. Barnett owns 360 acres there and has a grazing lease on 22,000 acres of federal and state land. These events were on the the leased land.
This is not the first suit that Barnett has lost and had to pay damages. The first one was by a Mexican American family who was hunting on the leased land who were held at gunpoint. In that trial there were witnesses testifying that they also had been held at gunpoint by Barnett.
It was only after Barnett lost the first suit that this suit was filed.
