Border Patrol and the local sheriff’s office have access to the property. No one else has the right to be there.
“So we really feel like the landowner is doing all they can that’s reasonable, that they know it’s law enforcement doing on their property,” she said.

Kibbe said people dying on ranches are not the biggest problem. “This is after the fact. This is a symptom of the overall issue,” she said.

The main issue Kibbe said is people in the country illegally are fleeing from their homelands. She said human rights activists should change their focus from the ranches to Central America.

“I think if they want to help these people, they need to go down and help them in their countries,” Kibbe said.

The South Texas Property Rights Association is calling on congress to secure the border, enforce current laws, reform immigration laws and create a guest worker program. Kibbe said those things will keep people from dying. Congress has that power, not landowners.

What most people don’t know is that the border ranches in Brooks County are protected by unpaid volunteers, patrolling mostly in the dark of night, doing the job our government refuses to do. And yet, these ranchers are being blamed for the deaths of criminals. These ranches have now become some of the most dangerous places in the country. They can’t be sold because of that. More than 300 people died crossing through Brooks County alone between 2011 to 2013 — representing more than 50 percent of the deaths in Texas’ sprawling Rio Grande Valley. The deaths are a byproduct of not slamming shut the border and lawfully processing immigrants. The blood of these people is all over Barack Obama’s hands, not the ranchers. Follow the damned law and make our country sovereign once more before someone parks a nuke on the White House lawn. Congress needs to seal the border and do their job period and they need to bypass Obama on it. –Right Wing News, clyde -Nov 29, 2015
