When studying boundary law, I remember seeing the term "hostile enjoyment", which I find to be hilarious. I haven't been able to find where I read that, but I'm guessing that's what he's doing here.
When the COE built their Arcadia Lake water reservoir near Edmond, OK in the '80s I did a lot of surveying around the area. One reclusive "hermit" had a slew of "GIT!" signs and his gate had probably a dozen skulls wired on it. Skulls of every different kind of varmint common to the area arranged from smallest to largest..ending with a human skull. Needless to say it kept me out of there.
I apparently wasn't the only one to have wandered up the winding trail. A newspaper article came out in the local paper and the police actually investigated. The human skull turned out to be an extremely "life-like" plastic replica. Could've fooled me.
Wish I had some pics.
I do find the fact there is a gate and no fence a bit odd... I found the picture! This is whats posted on my gate 

My favorite!

Americans sure are obsessed with shooting and killing, not a good reflection on our country.
Remember, if the standard is 6 feet under go the extra step and dig a 12 foot hole. It is always the shallow ones that get found.

I view it as a collective social mental illness resulting from the trauma of being fed a steady diet of violence in the media. Between video games, television and movies and so on, I'm not sure you could quantify the number of people your average citizen has witnessed shot or maimed before ever even becoming an adult. Forget it if you came of age on the streets of Maryland or Chicago where it's all too real. But I'm no shrink so what do I know. As events going on now clearly show, the line between reality and fantasy are gawdawful fuzzy for far too many people.
Just because I'm paranoid, doesn't mean they aren't out to get me.

I understand cadaver dogs have a hard time smelling things over 10'....
A possibly lone voice from the other side of the fence is that these people are tired of their remote, difficult to patrol property being vandalized, thievery and poaching of their livestock.

Hopefully there's a structure holding a significant amount of water behind this fence. Otherwise, no one will be in violation.

My Pa in New Zealand said he went to a friends remote farm, who had a full skeet and trap setup etc, and there was a large sign on the gate that read: "Anyone found on this property at night, will still be here in the morning".
