Going on someone's land is like sleeping with their mother. You may not need their permission, but things go a lot easier if you have it.

Hey, I couldn't get Murby's permission!

Cripes Murby, everyone's gotten your point. Nobody agrees with you. Just remember that the one common denominator in all of your conflicts in this thread is you. Except for the mom joke...that one's on me.

I would say that there is a potential that it could greatly affect my life... I have a home on my property... I own the property so I'm keenly aware of which direction I'm shooting... A trespasser, probably not so much... A trespasser more than likely won't know where I may be at on the property, nor I them as well... What could go wrong???

Dude, it is called humor!!!! Lighten up! Are you really wound that tight that you can't even see humor. Or are you really that dumb?

In case you haven't noticed, not one single person is taking your side. That should be a clue. You're the one out in left field. What's the matter, nobody want to play with you when you were little? Did you always throw a fit to try and make your point? I'm guessing you're a little too old for the pouting and whining routine you're showing here.

I haven't decided if you're a fool or if you're just pathetic. Or, maybe you're intentionally obtuse.

As to this one: Your extremest views are over a piece of dirt. There have been a heck of a lot of wars fought over a "piece of dirt". The whole "A Man's Castle" thing. And I still disagree that a 1x4 with a few nails buried where someone is trespassing with an ATV is a "booby trap" but considering your admission to feeling compelled the trespass, I can understand your concern. You might get a flat tire but if you're not trespassing you don't have much to worry about do you?

You sure you that you're not the clown the originator is talking about? Where were you on the days mentioned? Got any alibis?

You didn't need it. Last time I saw her, she had "FREE SHOT, Over 5000 Served" tattooed on her butt !

Hey Murby, that one's on the Chief.

***LOL! It looks like this thread will hit 12 pages, as I'm sure old Murby will be back with a rejoinder to those last couple posts!!! Come on Murby, give it another shot, LOL!

Hey TOP, you think he's ever gonna figure out that he's just a puppy chasing a ball? He'll run for it every time someone throws it. FETCH MURBY, FETCH. That's a good boy. Now, roll over and play dead for a week or two.

Flags, is that a confession??? You are admitting to seeing her butt...

Actually I did early in this post... I agree with Murby's logic that there is a reasonable way to handle such an issue... Anything that could lead to potential personal/property damage is taking things too far.

It was a scary sight and would have killed a normal man. But in true Navy fashion, "Any Port in a Storm"...:party0007: By the way did I mention it was tattooed in 6 inch letters!

Just what we need...a law forcing property owners to put cell phone numbers on trespassing signs....

Negative effect ..... What about people like me how don't own a cell phone......????
And no Murby I don't want an obama phone :D
Then you have to go and replace all your signs that don't have a place to put a phone number....
Easy answer..... Just don't trespass....problem solved....

Ah! Ok.. so now its humor.. (nice backtracking there!) glad we got that straightened out...

Are we making stuff up as we go along?

Interesting logic.. you let the majority make your opinion for you...
That's kind of like "When I want your opinion, I'll give it to you!" LOL

I don't mind being out in left field if that's the correct place to be. I don't let popular opinion dictate what is right or wrong to me.
That said, as someone like yourself who claims to have spent 25 years in a dictatorship, I can certainly understand and accept why you do..


Not in the way they apparently played with you! It usually takes severe childhood trauma to create your kind of aggression.


Wow.. so that's what you call it when someone tries talking sense into you. Nice..


Perhaps you should discuss it with your mother.. (sorry, I couldn't resist that time)..

On a serious note, and I'm being sincere, it would be great, and a lot more productive, if you could hold all of your comments to this type of tonality.
Yes there have been wars fought over possession and ownership of land.. but not over someone temporarily passing over that land. Again, from your mother analogy to one comparing historical wars.... Over some idiot trespassing? That's not logical, its extreme.

When your booby trap impales a ten year old child who has no concept of trespassing laws, maybe you'll learn something valuable...
Or depending on the type of person you are, maybe not. Still think your booby trap is a good idea?


I might get ridiculed for saying this, but I don't understand this joke... Its seems like its directed at me, but I don't get it. What am I missing?


This thread is getting boring now. I've tried talking sense to you but I'm not sure its doing any good so I'll leave it with this final, non insulting, non threatening, sincere piece...

It is not worth getting yourself all worked up and angry over some inconsiderate jackazz who is violating your property boundaries. Unless that person is actively causing damage or creating a dangerous situation, they should be dealt with as you would any other minor offensive behavior.
Furthermore, if you lay a booby trap and it injures someone, you could potentially lose those boundaries you are so fond of.
Its just not worth it.

Oh no.. I didn't mean a law to force the number on the sign.. I don't like laws forcing me to do anything either..

Not everything has to be so black and white like that..

And I'm not saying this is a perfect solution, but how about some legislation that increased the penalties for trespass when an owner does post the phone number to make it easy to contact them?

So if you don't post your number, nothing changes..
But if you do post your number, you get to prosecute to a stronger level of penalty.

To quote a famous author: The world is not what you see, its the lens through which you see it.
