I'm curious how the state of TX handles trespassing.

My dad has about 80 acres of timber and he gets trespassers all the time. He even found a local Cub Scout group camping there. What kind of a Cub Scout leader would camp out in private property? My dad didn't even really care.

Him and I have completely opposite views on the subject. Maybe I was born in the wrong century as I think you should be able to protect your property with a gun. If my property is clearly marked and you step in it I have the right to put you down.
