Shameful that the Republicans are already politicizing this crime without any facts or investigation about what really happened. Are they absolutely that some trigger happy American rancher didn't do it? Wouldn't be the first time.

shameful,

I completely agree with you. Ranchers should not be acting as enforcement officers, because there should be no enforcement officers. Ranchers need to accept that their land is our land. Poor people, from all over the world need to be welcomed to the opporunities available to them. Private property rights are an anachronism.

The republicans still believe in private propery, however their day is over. Human rights are much more important than property rights. We need an internationally supervised socialist model.

U.S. offers too much to immigrants. Their children are born here and the children are citizens. They get social security numbers for illegal aliens. They are allowed to buy lottery tickets with money they made illegally (because they are not citizens) and the winnings are theirs even if they are not citizens. Laws need to be changed/enforced so illegal aliens cannot survive here.
