Had a real weirdo at my place this morning.

Driving past a no-trespassing sign and through a gate (even though it is open), isn't necessarily 'no big deal'.

You're not supposed to be there, don't go there.

Should you shoot first and ask questions later?

Absolutely not, but if I were the property owner, I'm certainly not confronting the person without taking steps to protect myself, or calling the police, although in Chris's case, that help is far away and probably busy anyways.

At minimum it is a stellar lack of judgement on the driver's part. Private property rights are still a thing in most of the US.

Ask Kevin Monaham who’s stellar lack of minimum judgement was at fault here. He got plenty of time to think about it.

There is a no soliciting sign right at the entrance to our neighborhood, plus, we have TWO on our porch. One is literally hanging from the ring doorbell. Very clear. Big letters.

Yet the doped white mice keep ringing it....

I asked the last guy (solar panels) if he needs me to help him find a place to teach him how to read. He just looked at me as I explained that if he CAN read, and he still rang my doorbell, then that would be against the law and I would have to call the police. He got out of there pretty quick....

Chris,

Do you get in trouble for firing a warning shot in the air ?

That might count as negligent discharge.

People have a hard time with the idea of private property.

I had one of those ones. Boy was my girlfriend upset.

My uncle had an ND, and made my grandma almost deaf.
