Folks, you can't make this stuff up.

16 illegals sue Arizona rancher.

I am not going to write his story verbatim but here is the gist.
Roger Barnett, 64, a rancher in Arizona, found himself in a federal lawsuit, for $32 million dollars in actual and punitive damages for civil rights violations, the infliction of emotional distress and other crimes. It seems Mr. Barnett had caught the illegals on his property, held them at gun point and called the law.
The lawsuit is based on a March , 2004, incident on his 22,000-acre ranch.
The lawsuit was filed by the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF
The illegals were caught on Mr.Barnett's property after entering from Mexico to the United States illegally.
His ranch became an illegal-immigration highway when the Border Patrol diverted its attention to several border towns in order to take control of ports of entry. This effort moved the illegal immigrants to Mr. Barnett's ranch as a way to sneak into the United States.
Mr.Barnett has reported that some of his ranch's established immigrant trails were littered with trash 10 inches deep, including human waste, used toilet paper,soiled diapers, cigarette packs, clothes, backpacks, empty 1 gallon water bottles.
Mr.Barnett's attorney, David Hardy, had argued that illegal immigrants did not have the same rights as U.S. citizens. Illegal immigrants had started to vandalize his property, they tore up water pumps, killed calves, destroyed fences and gates, stole trucks and broke into his home.

Now comes the good part.
In March, U.S. District Judge John Roll rejected the motion by Mr.Barnett to have the charges dropped, ruling there was sufficient evidence to allow the matter to be presented to a jury.

Illegal-immigrants sneaking into the United States, destroying personal property, theft, breaking and entering and the judge rejects the motion to drop the law suit. What was the judge thinking, oh, I'm sorry, silly question.
