No tresspassing sign circa 1895

Kind of says it all
"If violent crime is to be curbed, it is only the intended victim who can do it. The felon does not fear the police, and he fears neither judge nor jury. Therefore what he must be taught to fear is his victim." - Jeff Cooper
Pericles--"Freedom is only for those who have the guts to defend it".

The problem with society today is that not enough of us drink wine from our enemies skulls”.

It takes 43 muscles to frown, 17 to smile, and 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Gun control is like trying to reduce drunk driving by making it tougher for sober people to own cars!!!
-Sheriff Jim Wilson
"When tyranny becomes law rebellion becomes duty" Thomas Jefferson
Es gibt keine Notwendigkeit zu befürchten, Underdog hier ist.
Great nations rise and fall. The people go from bondage to spiritual truth, to great courage, from courage to liberty, from liberty to abundance, from abundance to selfishness, from selfishness to complacency, from complacency to apathy, from apathy to dependence, from dependence back again to bondage. Where are we now??????

Thomas Jefferson: The strongest reason for the people to keep and bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect themselves against the tyranny of government. That is why our masters in Washington are so anxious to disarm us. They are not afraid of criminals. They are afraid of a populace which cannot be subdued by tyrants."
Col. Jeff Cooper.

Got to admire the hand lettering though.





Ever the doubtful one, I'm wondering if this is authentic?

Look closely Alf, most definitely a "shoped" job. Sign has no attachments to the fence. Great sentiment though. Wish I had one on my fence but the Feds would be all over that one.

Still not sure if it's real or not, but it could be attached.  Looks like it might be nailed to the post just above the "B" at the top right and below the "ed" in tired on the lower right.  Might even be one at the end of his last name.  Definitely not attached to the fence though.

I think I have seen a picture of this in a book before.  Whether or not it is photo shopped, I like it.

The sign is authentic gentlemen. I posted it on a wild west history association board.
It is the real deal.  ;D I like it too!! Nice to be here and good to meet you.
