If it's visible and posted it's not a trap. Traps are intentionally hidden.
The guy who lost his farm was an ex felon to begin with.
He held some illegals and they arrested him on firearms charges. While he was in jail on firearms charges the illegals and the ACLU sued him when he could not defend himself, while he was in jail, and won the lawsuit and judgement.
That's not some innocent farmer, but that was not exactly harming illegals, either. Just some money hungry illegals and lawyers.
BS. Look Razor wire is used to prevent prison breaks. It is deadly force and illegal border crossing is not a crime that justifies deadly force. There is no rancher that will allow that fence to be built on his property and Simcox knows that. The legal liability is just too high not to mention that the Border Patrol or the National Guard will demolish the site.
