Rockinbar, I am not sure you are right on the border patrol, coming on private land with out owners's ok, We deal with the border patrol every day here on the ranch, and they cannot come on this ranch without calling me first.so far this year they have picked up 1800 illegals and drug dealers here. rio7
It depends on the miles from the border. They CAN enter within 100, but anything within 25, you cannot deny them access. In fact, all our ranch gates that fall under that, out in west Texas have a BP lock on the chain as well. Tried to fight them with it, but they won. All the ranchers there have the same issues.
They don't always use it for stellar purposes either. The chief BP guy was caught poaching a pronghorn out of season. Guess how he gained access to that pasture?
