The only right an illegal immigrant has is the right to be safely transported back to the border and be told not to come back until he has legal immigration papers.
As far as this rancher who is being sued for $32 million, if it can be proven he kicked one of the women he should be prosecuted for that. But the $32 million lawsuit is beyond absurd.
Property owners in that area have the right to defend themselves and protect their property. So as long as they aren't shooting illegal immigrants in the back, I have no problem with them being armed or detaining anyone they find on their property.
If it takes US military to protect our borders, so be it. That's one of the valid things the federal government should be spending our tax dollars on.
As far as making legal immigration easier, let's talk about that once we get unemployment back to the 5% or so range.
