'course I'm a trespasser [img]smile.gif[/img] Been chased a few times. But I can run fast when I want, so it's ok. And I know how to kill dogs hand-to-hand, so we're ok in that department too, so long as they don't get my throat [img]smile.gif[/img]

Havn't been shot at though, as hardly anyone in NZ has a gun due to our gun control laws

Now, I realise the situation in NZ is infinately different than in many other regions as we have so many open miles of totally unsettled wilderness, so there's plenty of room for roaming. However, my point is that land just really isn't worth killing over. The concept of property is a psychological trap, an unfortunate by-product of the settled, 'civilised' lifestyle. You can have access to objects, you can have territory that you frequent, but you can never own anything. And when people fool themselves into thinking that they actually *can* own things it can drive them on to do some pretty disgusting things... [img]graemlins/1disgust.gif[/img]
