SIERRA VISTA, Ariz. | An anti-illegal immigration activist accused of threatening to shoot a Mexican-American family of hunters with an assault rifle and using racial slurs against them was ordered to pay them $98,000. A civil jury held rancher Roger Barnett only partly responsible, saying some of the blame lay with the man who sued and the man's father. Ronald Morales and his father, Arturo, were with his two young daughters and their friend when Barnett confronted them near his Douglas-area ranch and accused them of trespassing Oct. 30, 2004. Morales' lawsuit claims they were legally crossing land Barnett leases from the state. The Moraleses are U.S. citizens of Mexican descent. Barnett, who claims to have detained more than 10,000 migrants in the last 10 years, denied threatening the hunting party. He testified that he only took out his AR-15 rifle because the adults in the group were carrying rifles. Morales, a Navy veteran, said he felt justice had been served by the verdict. "We came to court and spoke the truth, and the jury heard that truth," Morales said. "Hopefully this sends a message that you can't point a gun at little kids - or anybody for that matter - and then threaten to shoot them." Barnett declined to comment, saying his lawyer advised him against speaking. His brother, Donald Barnett, expressed disappointment. "In the Morales family, the father taught the son to trespass, and now the father's teaching the daughters how to trespass in blatant disregard for the law," said Donald Barnett, who was initially named in the suit but later dropped as a defendant. "I guess in this country, private property and a person's rights don't mean much any more." The lawsuit was sponsored by the Border Action Network and the Southern Poverty Law Center, civil rights groups that have accused Barnett of acting as a vigilante and abusing illegal immigrants he detains on his ranch. The family sued Barnett for assault, false imprisonment, negligence and intentional infliction of emotional distress. The jury found in favor of all five plaintiffs Wednesday. Morales said he asked the Cochise County Attorney to press criminal charges against Barnett, but was told no jury would convict him.

Those scammers have no compassion or compunction and don't care who they bilk, nor who or what cause they hurt; they have theirs and that's all that matters to them. You are referencing Chris Simcox. If I thought I had a chance to punch your face in, I would take it. You are as disgusting here on LP as you are on CP. But you have no shame. You hide behind mastermind's asshole. buckeroo posted on 2006-11-25 17:38:15 ET http://libertypost.org/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=167297&Disp=73#C73 Shut-up you coward piece of shit. Buck, you only know how to beat up your own coward, loud mouthed ass.
Don't you just love guys with internet balls?
Why do you think that christine had Neil make a buckeroo filter here? And why the hell don't you use it?
my bad. it's just been activated.
Sanity saver enacted. Good job. I sometimes wonder what I've missed, but then, I snap to, and go on to real posters here.
Ponchy is posting here now. We tried to talk to him but he won't speak to us. Maybe buckeroo can keep him entertained.
You know what's saddest of all is I agree with Bucky and Ponchy on the most important issues, but they are too busy pretending to be stoic to realise it.

He is posting as "RedHeadedStranger". I think he wants us to think he is Tori Amos.

-- You are right. But here is a how to post like Buck video I was hoping to share with him, so forgive the ping to him in his vernacular. I know it is crude, abusive and rude, but how else to get a guy like him pinged to a video that has him written all over it.
Hiya punk. What was that above remark? You think you can make a thread and play with yourself? Well, of course you can. Thats all you do.

Watch the video, it's you.
Cheap government jobs with cheap retirement accounts. Blah blah blah But hows your cheap website going ... PostLiberty ... its a smash across the Internet really racking up the acclaim, correct?

You don't even know what stoic means. You probably mean to suggest, "sowhatitis" ... something like that.

Do you remember an old Country and Western song that went "wiki wiki wiki let's talk dirty in Hawaiian"? Who did it?
You aren't doing anything anymore. You are lost. You think because you can suggest some sort of rap where you feel safe and secure doesn't dismiss you from being objective. OK, treeclimber.

You are abusive and ignorant. You are a joke. Thanks for sharing your arrogance; I knew you would, you are very predictable.
Ponchy was over here tonight. JT says he drinks those little umbrella drinks. Do you want me to introduce you?
It doesn't sound like something he would do. I will look on U Tube.
Sure tree climber, what ever you say. What else do you want from me tonite?

It doesn't sound like something he would do. I will look on U Tube. the guy at the hotel desk said it was the same guy who sang 'King of the Road' and 'Kansas City Star'. whoever that was.
