The Montana rancher quoted in the article seemed to have a reasonable justification for it. I can't say I fully agree with him or that I'd press charges for it but he doesn't sound like he has ill intent. People firing guns and scaring his kids, trespassing deep into his land, parking in his driveway etc. And local law enforcement stretched thin and unable to respond consistently. So his position is basically I'm going to do everything I can to keep these people away from my property. That's understandable.
- giantg2 4y agoThose scenarios are different than the one I mentioned. Those are also different than the WY ranch case scenario.
- 22289d 4y agoYou asked me a question, I answered it.
- giantg2 4y agoAnd you failed to answer it by injecting other scenarios.
- 22289d 4y ago> Is there a scenario where pressing charges and a civil suit for corner crossing doesn't involve ill will? This is what you asked me. I think perhaps you intended to ask me something else. The answer to that question is 'yes' and I gave you an example of such. Were the Montana rancher to press charges for corner-crossing, based on his stated reasoning, I don't think that would be ill will. You didn't specific any restrictions on which situations apply or do not apply to your question.
- giantg2 4y agoDear God, when is pressing charges not ill will? You clearly wish the government its force to punish them!
