The acting, especially by the "creepy guy standing at the gate that looks like the Canadian Pepper guy," was pretty funny.

After “threat neutralized” the next words should be “let’s get his vehicle inside to see what the visitor just donated to our community”.

One of My favorite No Trespassing Signs I think of all time- "You are no longer Trespassing, You are now a Target" lol 👍🤠

Something to note with Ring. Law enforcement can sign up with Amazon as a "partner" and freely access your "neighborhood" cameras without any warrants.

99% of fencing is a psychological barrier. 6ft Fencing with outward facing lights is one of the best deterrents there is...much respect from Zimbabwe 🇿🇼

One time, I was about 16, and me and my entire family were going out to dinner, but at the last moment I had this epiphany if they all go out I have the house to myself, so I bailed on them in favor of a peaceful night at home. Make some popcorn watch some movies, but maybe 45 minutes after they all leave I hear a noise coming from the back bedroom. This room had a rear facing window onto an outside deck. Now because our house was haunted I initially thought it was a ghost or some paranormal activity but I grabbed my shotgun just the same, and walked down the hall to check it out. When I get to the bedroom I flick on the light, and there prying open the window was a person dressed totally in black with a black ski mask, the classic cat burglar look, they almost looked corny or theatrical even. When he saw the light turn on and subsequently me standing there with a shotgun pointed at his face he spooked, and ill never forget how he quickly scurried away, all hunched over, and crab like across the deck disappearing into the night. Cops came and of course did nothing. My feeling was it had to be an inside job because they had to know noone would be at home but since I changed my mind at the last minute I unwittingly foiled their plans. So glad I didn't have to blow their head off can you imagine the mess and the clean up ... haha 😀

I have 10 acres. I have lived on it for 30 years. At first I would see hunters on my property during deer and turkey season. I had 3 kids then and was afraid one may get shot from a stray bullet or arrow. I put up the private property keep out signs. They did no good, and they were well posted. So I had signs made saying " PRIVATE PROPERTY, KEEP OUT VIOLATORS MAY BE MET WITH DEADLY FORCE " For the past 20 years, no one has come on my property. BTW. I live in the south and us country boys don't take no shit. Lol

The one thing I would suggest, are range markers. Maybe just a stake with some colored tape at the end, but then you can tell how far out an object is quickly. Every 100 meters put just a single pole down, that way there is no 'guestimating range.' Instead it's "yeah they're next to the yellow pole, they're 300 meters out." or they're "halfway between the Yellow and Blue pole, so they're 250 meters out." So, even if they DO make it past your fence, you know how far away they are. You can also make one tall-ish enough to put some fabric, or maybe flags on them to see wind direction. Now you have range, wind direction, and an open field. Maybe also a tower, yeah I'd also build a tower. Or maybe just get a giant tree imported into your yard, and put a treehouse/stand in there, have the inside walls of the treehouse be lined with dirtbags, (like sandbags, but dirt.) binoculars, water, and food. Now when it really hits the fan you've got a HIGH position, over an open field, with range markers. If you wanted to, you could get solar running, put a nice radio up there, with a beefy antenna.

@Canadian Prepper, I noticed the top gate hinge is facing upward. I always put the top hinge pivot facing down so the gate can't be lifted off the hinges.

Here in Wrong Turn, WV our fences are to keep you in, not out. So in SHTF, y’all be sure to come give us a visit, ya hear? We’ll leave the light on for ya.

Good call on using non-internet cameras. So many people assume that "Internet" is some kind of natural resource that flows like water.

the best sign I've seen was "trespassers will be shot survivors will be shot again" lol

Remember: The closest threat isnt purgers, rioters and bandits; it is government bureaucracy who want you defenseless and reliant on them.

The first thing that comes to mind while watching is how blessed their families are to have men who are willing to defend them.

My great grandpa had a steel cable in his cattle guard that ran up the property to a big bell. Driving over the cable pulled it slightly and rang the bell near the house.

It's called a threshold. At a house, that threshold is above the front door. It marks the demarcation line that police are not allowed to cross without a warrant. A man's home is his castle and his castle is his home. Here in the video that long log at the top of the gate serves as the threshold because it is combined with the signage.

Don’t even rely on the government, because you’ll be completely disappointed

My favorite no trespassing sign said in large letters: "WARNING! SNIPERS!"; and in smaller print underneath the large print "If you are reading this, we already have you in out sights"

For anyone thinking about natural barriers using trees: The Osage Orange tree is a good option for this that I rarely hear mentioned. It is easy to "train" into a weaved barrier, grows fairly quickly, hardy once it gets going, and it has long spines/spikes on it's branches. This can create a very tight barrier of spikes to keep pretty much anything out (or in). The tree (also sometimes called a shrub) does grow some fruit (kind of grapefruit sized) that is inedible and can make a mess... so if looks are a primary concern then you might find the fruit all over the ground to be unsightly. If not, then there are no other plants I know of that can create a barrier as hard to get through as a tight Osage Orange tree line. Also of note is that once they start making fruit, it can spread fairly easily. Fast forward 15 years and you could find you need to put some effort into cleaning up the fruit or cutting the tree line back. Depending on the size of the area you are protecting, you can go all out or take the "easy" route. The tree can be topped and the branches weaved together over time to make it nearly impossible to get through, but this will take quite a lot of work if you have a huge plot of land you are protecting. Often times people just plant them close together and that is still enough to prevent any movement (remember, 2 inch spikes covering everything). If you wanted to go above and beyond though, weaving the branches into a wall of spikes will all but guarantee nothing makes it through, no matter how motivated it is. The wood itself is also extremely durable and has the flexibility to bend without breaking. This makes it good for use as a timber supply (it is the goto wood for things that sit outside for decades like railroad ties and fence posts because it doesn't rot and insects ignore it...even termites) and if this is up your ally, it is considered the best wood to use for making bows, which is how it got it's original name (Bow wood). Though it is pretty rare to be able to get long straight cuts out of it unless it grows naturally and with plenty of room... not exactly what we are looking for in a barrier though. It's wood is also so dense that it is the second best firewood as far as heat output. Only Eucalyptus is higher, and it is tied with Almond. It burns so hot that it is recommended to not use it in wood stoves, so keep that in mind. It is better to think of it more like coal as far as heat output goes. It is also so dense that it takes a lot more effort to harvest and is much harder on your tools than "regular" wood. Pros and cons to everything I guess.
