There are a million reasons why you should never do this, but I would be tempted to use storage unit #3 as the place to keep my land mine collection.
Edit: “You have a land mine collection?”
No, but after storage unit #2, I’d daydream about starting one.
- Analemma_ 2y agoBooby-trapping your property is illegal even in the reddest of red states.
- senectus1 2y agoid put a bank of ultra bright white LED lights facing the door and a speaker with a recording saying this footage has been sent to a remote location. thank you for closing the door behind you.
- kstrauser 2y agoThat would be one of the million reasons why I wouldn’t do it. I didn’t say I’d actually do it. I’d surely daydream of it.
- Terr_ 2y agoI imagine it'd be a lot cheaper and legally-viable to store your collection of electronic burglar alarms. Especially if they dial a human when triggered. There are some neat videos out there where people make their own with Arduinos etc.

- metadat 2y agoDo they typically stay charged for only a few days at most?
- kstrauser 2y agoWell, you might need to stop by frequently to visit them.
- praptak 2y agoWhere I live the "accidental" part doesn't really get you off the hook. Negligence is better than intention but still. If it kills someone or causes grievous bodily harm, it's still on you. Yes, even if it's a burglar. You also have to think about the fully legal situations when it's firefighter or a cop with a warrant. Or an edge case like a stupid kid.
- s1artibartfast 2y agoWhere I grew up, problem thieves would just go missing, to be found years later dead at the bottom of a mine shaft.
- bigstrat2003 2y ago> If it kills someone or causes grievous bodily harm, it's still on you. Yes, even if it's a burglar. Honestly, the laws in your locale are unjust and need to be rewritten. There should be absolutely no liability to the owner (or renter) of a property if someone burglarizing it gets hurt accidentally.
- praptak 2y agoWell it kind of depends on what exactly happened. For example there are building codes, like "no deadly drops without guardrails". If you leave something like this then you are breaking the law. If somebody dies because of this then it's on you, even if they were breaking another law. I'm not sure how you could rewrite self defense law to cover this case.

- pavel_lishin 2y agoIt's a fun fantasy. Work a few more elements into it: - you're hit by a bus, and your family is clearing out the storage locker. - management is alerted to a bad smell coming out of several units, and they have to enter yours to verify that you're not accidentally storing dead raccoons. - the police are serving a warrant on a unit, and accidentally open yours due to a typo. - a homeless teenager just needs a place to sleep for the night.
- kstrauser 2y agoI’m not sure you grok the concept of “fun fantasy”.
