It seems that owning a piece of property seems to give some people a sense of entitlement that they can treat others like crap because the property is not theirs. There is something called being neighborly too. Sometimes showing some respect to those that don't own your property will go farther than posting the hell out of it and throwing every person off that strays over the line.
Do you let people roam around in your backyard? Do let people in your house without permission? Its the same thing. If I own it, youd better ask before you cross that line.
How many of the people that would take an antler from someone elses property would shoot a monster buck that was just on the other side of the fence? By all the accounts so far, the guy doesnt "own" the deer....so why not shoot it and just reach over the fence and drag him to your side?
First of all, by your accounts we shouldn't even be hunting. If you're so holier than thou the obvious interpretation of "Thou shalt not kill" would mean the killing of anything, right Ghandi?
***That was laced with extreme sarcasm and meant in funso please don't get all fired up.***
It's not the same. Picking up an antler from across a fence line is nowhere near the same as walking into someone's living room and lifting their 50" plasma, so don't try to compare the two.
To answer your questions, yes I do let neighbors, particularly children roam through our backyard, no I do not let themin my houseuninvited, because it's not the same.
You're trying to put blanket conditions over everythingand it doesn't work that way. Different situationscall for different actions. There are plenty of shades of grey between black and white.
