Illegal aliens awarded $78k against ranger who held them at gunpoint
We have lost our @#$%ing minds in this country. We truly have. I don’t think illegals should be able to sue for ANYTHING in this country (hello, they shouldn’t be here to begin with), but to sue and win against a guy protecting his land (and our nation) is a disgrace. A true slap in the face of justice.
A federal jury found Tuesday that a southern Arizona rancher didn’t violate the civil rights of a group of illegal immigrants who claimed that he detained them at gunpoint in 2004.
The eight-member civil jury also found Roger Barnett wasn’t liable on claims of battery and false imprisonment.
But the jury did find him liable on four claims of assault and four claims of infliction of emotional distress and ordered Barnett to pay $77,804 in damages — $60,000 of which were punitive
I have a feeling this will not hold up on appeal. Who are the blood-sucking lawyers that fight for illegals?
Hotair has some good commentary on this.
The idiot Houston Chronicle newspaper, in an obvious attempt to spin the story, titled it “Jury backs rancher…..” and makes it sound like a victory for him, even though he was ordered to pay them the money.
