    Yeah, the city wouldn't let us put barbed wire on top of our 8 foot fence around the tow lot. The city even used it to impound vehicles some of which had been used in crimes but god forbid some thief hurts himself.

    And actually, thinking back, another city would not let us put up a chain link fence around our junk yard to keep partying kids or thieves out because they thought that chain link was dangerous. I told the owner that it was much harder for them to force us to take it down than forbid us to put it up. So we put the while thing up over the weekend anyway. The fact that it was up and the fact that both schools had chain link around them took the wind out of their sails.

    This coming from the country that arrested a farmer for shooting a home invader thug.

    Go get one of those electric tape fences that farmers and ranchers use, it looks like webbing from a lawn chair with wires running thru it, then attatch that to an electric fencer box, one of the high voltage ones, guarantee when they try to get in you will know, that will put a 1500 pound bull to his knees, so yea a human will go down as well. And it will hurt like hell.
