Adios,

Would chill out on that kind of talk man, there's all kinds of folks on here from different nationalities; over the last several years I've been on this site, 99.9% of them are good, down to earth folks in my experience.

No need to throw slang on here like that.. just my 2cents

We always left our camp house unlocked in Terrel county. The wetbacks coming through would usually eat a few cans of beans and spend the night but we never had any tear anything up.

Seems the bigger issues occur further from the border once they get more desperate and not far from their pickup point. All I got to say, make sure your ranch manger or worker isn't a coyote himself... Money talks and it happens unfortunately but they get caught eventually.

it is always a good idea to leave water and canned food outside your camphouse or trailer so they do not feel compelled to break in to get it. I also have heard a crucifix on the door will deter them - not sure if that is true but have heard it works


You can't fix stupid

Worked out of Laredo for a while back in 1990 and had to go out at night to read logs at drilling rig mostly in Webb county. had guards at main gates and most ranches had cattle guards on the ranch roads but a few had gates and it was spooky. Had a spot light on my pickup and checked out the area before getting out to open gates. Heard rumors that a Halliburton employee was jumped at a gate and they stole his pickup and left him in his under wear.The ranchers I talked to that lived in town but had older places on their ranch said they never locked them, could tell they had been there with canned goods and bottled water gone but that had a increase of some of them trashing the place for no reason. They thought it was from younger men and not from Mexico but central Americans. rifle
