I would also bet that you have never talked directly, personally to a rancher in Ariz-New Mexico-or Texas about the damages they are suffering with the intruders.
Did you attend the funeral of rancher Robert Krentz? Bet not.
Did you send a donation to his family to help them continue running their ranch? Bet not.
Where ever your safe little haven is, you are not watching intruders kill your cattle, sheep & dogs. You have not lost cattle to butchers who cut off the choicest pieces & leave the rest of a $2000 steer for the buzzards. Do you think there is insurance for that kind of trouble? Think again. You are not seeing your buildings broken into, as well as your house.
You are not seeing your cattle die because the intruders have fouled the stock tanks on your acreage with their human waste & used diapers.
Quit playing compter games & find out up close & personal what is actually going on in the border states.
“littered paths are hardly an ecological disaster”.
I said that. The littered paths aren’t a good thing but they’re not a disaster. I’d say the gulf oil spill is a disaster. Murders are tragedies unless large numbers of people die in a single event.
You would make a better impression if you commented what a poster says rather than what you imagined they said.
