86 in one night, geez. I don't know how he can deal with all the illegals coming though his property.

Very small victory. They were law breakers on multiple counts and he simply detained them until the proper authorities could take over. He didn't even actually harm them. They deserve NOTHING from him.

Rather a pyrrhic victory, when they turn around and fine him for doing what he not only should have done, but should be thanked for doing.
Better than
"Although the award is a tiny fraction (less than one-quarter of one percent) of the $32 million sought by the Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF), it is disgraceful that the jury awarded anything to the plaintiffs."
Problem is groups like ,,,, Mexican American Legal Defense and Education Fund (MALDEF)
Should have been thrown out of court and never reached this point.

"The implicit argument that a man protecting his property is somehow analogous to the thuggery of the KKK is quite simply obscene."
Obscene indeed. Here's an idea: take the troops spread across the globe and put them on OUR borders.
I know, silly me. Can someone refill my KoolAid?

That's what *I'd* do if I were the Prez
I don't see it as much of a win considering illegal aliens were basically given rights that should only belong to an American.
MALDEF should be disbanded and all the money they have stashed given to the border patrol and the rancher.
seems like a waste of the ranchers time and taxpayers dollars to me.
MALDEF shouldn't be disbanded at all. Instead they should represent Mexican-AMERICANS and ignore illegals.

good luck with that happening since a lot of mexican americans have illegal family members...like when the kids are born here and are citizens...bullshit all the way around.

yeah i guess not much. they just take advantage of every case in hopes of making some $$ off it.
MALDEF shouldn't be disbanded at all. Instead they should represent AMERICAN -Mexacians and ignore illegals.

Good catch Snafu. I've never appreciated this whole multi-cultural identification thing x-American. I do not believe in divided loyalties and I particularly do not appreciate placing the emphasis on the other national loyalty before America. If you choose to live here (even if you were born here, if you're still here it's because you choose to be), nothing should come before your loyalty to this nation.
Just my opinion - again!
I went around calling myself a "White-American" for a while. No one thought it was funny except my bud, who happens to be black. lol.

Shame, for shame!
You can't use color, it has to be nationalities....like "European-American"
If you were born in Mexico, you'll always be of Mexican descent, no matter which country you move to. You can say American of Mexican descent, but since the Mexican part is constant and the country of current residence might not be, it makes sense to put it in the back.
Personally, I don't feel it is necessary to have specific groups for different kinds of people, but the market allows for and encourages specialization, just like in every single other market, so I don't let it bother me.
Can you imagine what a pain in the ass it'd be to go on a date, ask what she likes and have her just say, "food" and not get any more specific?

I always select "other" when asked my race or put down "Irish-American" [Beer]
Caucasian American is what I prefer to be called
[ROFL1]
I've taken to just flat out ignoring all race questions. I don't give a shit if they have to report to the government.

when i was a kid my dad told me I had a lot of cherokee indian in me (which i do). i asked which part of me was indian...he told me my left leg.
so what did i do, I went to school and blabbed about how my left leg was cherokee indian! [ROFL2]

what did you put on the census?
I wrote in the other box and just put "American"
Nothing. I put how many people lived in the house, their respective ages, and the year they were born. I didn't put any names, races, or even the whole date of birth.

I wish i didn't put in the whole birth date...but it isn't like the info isn't all over the place out there now.
