No, but if he's walkin' around MY place, he's nowhere NEAR a road that a non-4WD or dirt bike could traverse. Hell, most times he'd need waders just to get down there on foot, though it's pretty dry right now. Not to mention he'd need a death wish to walk out in that crap without snake boots what with all the rattlers. I have a cell phone, ya know, and trespass not justifiable in Texas where as killing a dog can be. I have had a kid arrested for night hunting from his jeep on my place before. I got on stand rather early, he got stuck in a mud hole and couldn't go anywhere, I called the game warden. That was satisfying considering I've had hog traps and stands stolen off the place. You CAN use lethal force to protect property in Texas, not that I would do that. But, I am a little fed up with thieves and trespassers down there.
So, if the "left" thinks that trespass and helping yourself to your neighbor's stuff and hunting illegally should not be punishable by jail time, well, okay, I'm a poster child for 'em.
I never said I'd shoot anyone that didn't need shootin' (self defense), but I sure as hell carry a cell phone and know how to dial 911. I've done it before and if he didn't before, that 16 year old kid now has a criminal record and I ain't lost any sleep about doing it. Little fart got off with probation. I was hoping for 6 months anyway. The really fun part of the deal, he was in a Jeep Cherokee, was knowing he was coming up on that hole. I saw his headlights go under water. ROFLMAO! The game wardens took his gun and hauled off his vehicle. Not sure what ever happened to 'em, but the motor was no doubt ruined. You ain't gettin' down there in a Toyota Corrolla, I can tell ya that, not even when it's dry! I don't take the wife's car down there, don't wanna replace the exhaust system. Hell, I got my 4x4 Toyota truck stuck down there twice. You think someone is going to be DRIVING down there? There is a road a mile away where I park to ride the dirt bike in or walk. It dead ends at a boat ramp on the bay. Ain't like travelers are driving through there. Most fishermen don't take their dogs on the boat with 'em.
There's lots of boat traffic up and down that road, and some oil field trucks, that's about it. It's the very remoteness of the road down there that attracts idiots to dump their unwanted puppies on the place. I've seen ONE dog down there with a collar on it and it was a small dog. I didn't even think about shooting it, not big enough to hurt much bigger than a rabbit. There are some houses a couple miles away. Guess he was lost. If the snakes didn't get him, perhaps a hog might have. LOL
