=============
The ranchers had to start locking valves on their water tanks because 
the ignorant illegals would open the valve to get water and leave it run 
and drain the tank. Then there was no water for the cattle and they died.

Since the cattle and the water tanks are on private land and the 
illegals are breaking trespass laws by being there in the first place, 
and theft of water is a felony in that amount, and killing of the 
livestock is another felony. Just how can you justify them doing that 
phxbrd?

The ranchers are perfectly justified in locking water valves.

If you don't think so, then I'm sure you have removed all locks from the 
doors of your house and cars and have no objection to homeless people 
wandering through your property taking whatever suits them.
