In South Texas a guy hunting on our place held a couple of illegals at gunpoint until the border patrol showed up. He said he done the same thing in Iraq so I guess he knew what he was doing.
We have been told by the Border Patrol and the county sheriff that doing this can and probably will result in a charge of kidnapping or unlawful restraint .
At least one rancher over by Douglas, AZ, who held illegals at gunpoint, was sued and ended up losing his ranch. If the situation can't be credibly explained as self-defense, you should probably just abstain from initiating a confrontation.
