[QUOTE="Dave70968, post: 2809936, member: 13624"] As it turns out, I am. The law of negligence (which is a civil tort, not a criminal action, so there's no prosecutor, just a plaintiff) lays out different duties of care with regard to premises liability based upon the class of the injured party. To an invitee--that is, somebody entering your land for the purpose of doing business or as a member of the general public--you have a duty to actively search for and remedy hazards. To a licensee--somebody you allow on your property despite not being open to the general public, such as a social guest in your home--you don't have to actively search, but you do have to fix anything you know about. To the trespasser, you have a duty not to actively create hazard. Booby trapping is simply not allowed. Post a sign, and I'll be using that as Exhibit A at trial...and I'll be using your kid's college fund to buy my new King Air. [/QUOTE]
