If I'm understanding this correctly, one couldn't be trespassing on their own front yard, but it could be considered a public place if there were no fence or signs telling someone not to trespass. Then one could be arrested for carrying a gun openly under the disorderly conduct scenario easier.aardwolf wrote:How can someone be trespassing on their own front yard?

Re: legal questions...lawyers welcome to assist
Dicion, either you confuse me or you mistyped this. How can the lack of a fence and or signs be construed as effective consent? How can not doing anything to prevent someone from entering be construed as effective consent?dicion wrote:I think it could be argued that your front lawn, with a lack of a fence and/or signs, would be construed as 'effective consent'. Eg, you didn't do anything to Prevent them entering it.
If that was the case, then every solicitor that comes to my door could be arrested for trespassing. (Oh, How I wish that were true!)
