People Suck.....

As a landowner I am going to disagree with almost everyone. For people that I know by other means, I am quite open about people using my land for things like hunting deer. I do tell them if someone else has permission to hunt there and ask them to run off anyone else that they find while out hunting. My driveway looks sort of like a dirt road off the end of a paved road and sometimes I find people on it. For an honest mistake I am quite forgiving and try to help the trespassers find the experience they were looking for. For a$$holes that think they own anything without a no trespassing sign I am far less tolerant. I do have an existing right to trespass across the northern most 30 feet of my land for agricultural purposes because some of my neighbors would otherwise be landlocked. One day I saw one of those idiots mowing the grass along that area and starting to rake that grass for bailing. Needless to say I was a bit less than polite when I asked him to stop and get the he11 off my land. Some people will take a mile if you give them an inch. It turns out that I approached a cattle farmer nearby and asked him if he wanted that grass for no charge as winter feed for his cattle. I had no use for it but no way would I ever set a precedent to let that idiot run roughshod over me and my rights.

As a landowner I agree with you 100% give an inch take a mile,folks think they own your land,cut wood,pick flowers,picnic,use it as dump,etc.,etc. Then get
pi$$ed when told to get off,It's mine and I pay the tax,plenty of it too.Some get
mad and aggressive until I show my badge then it's a different story I always say to them when you pay the tax on this property you can do as you please until
then move on. On the other hand if someone asks and I know them I will let
them cut within reason some of them have taken part of the mile at times and
don't get invited back
