And 2nd place goes to...

Oh, you thought (or hoped) this thread would die? Ha! Call me Dreamcrusher...

Some douche cut the lock (this time it was the logging company's lock) with an angle grinder, drove down to the job site, and stole the freakin fire extinguishers. The fire extinguishers!

I guess since the diesel fuel hadn't been replenished since Mr. N. Hatley (allegedly, right?) stole it, the thief had to get something for their trouble and 20 minutes of wasted time on 09Jan.

Daytime pics, this time.

That truck will be easy to find with those wheels and grill.
 
The passenger seems to be holding a sign. Well, it’s probably a coffee cup, but it could be a sign.

Crazy how brazen folks are for next to nothing.

I'm guessing the original "picture" is a lot more detailed, because deputies recognized the truck right away.

"Oh yeah. We know him. We'll go ahead and pay him a visit."

And they finally got around to grabbing the fuel thief. He admitted to jacking 300gals of diesel.

To avoid charges, he's agreed to pay the logger current rates for the stolen fuel. I'm sure it'll be one of his family members paying so their baby boy don't go to jail.

That’s true to an extent. Once a law enforcement officer is involved, I have NEVER had one that told me I couldn’t go get my dog(s). I have on a couple occasions tried to call my dog off their land but if I dog is treed, meaning the animal is up a tree and the dog is barking on said tree, it is very hard to call the dog off that tree. If I’m close to the dog, I have done it before but if the dog is pretty far, it’s about impossible. We have gotten both deputies and wildlife officers involved at the same time before and in the end, we are always allowed to go get them. We try not to intentionally go on someone’s land without permission first. Most of the time if you’re nice and ask then they don’t mind. We also try and get surrounding landowners permission ahead of time in the change the dogs do cross over. It always pays to be nice but I’m not going to leave my dog.

Also, FYI, it’s illegal to tamper with/remove/turn off tracking devices of said dogs.

It's illegal to trespass or hunt on someone's land without permission but you seem OK with that.

Well I’m not just going to leave my dog. What else does someone expect. First, ask permission to retrieve dog. If that don’t work, involve law enforcement. If that don’t work, then what? Leave the dog? Not going to happen especially if I know where the dog is.

If you don't want to leave your dog, maybe don't turn it loose on someone else's land.

Dogs don’t know where property lines are, a deer, coon or fox fogs can be a mile into someone else’s property in a flash after crossing your property. We have always given permission to retrieve them as long as they leave the guns in their trucks. Most people in my area extend the same courtesy. I don’t hunt any of the above but would gladly allow someone to get their dogs. I’m not going to leave my lab if he crosses a property line and doesn’t come back either. If I know where to go knock on a door or who to call I’ll go there first.

How about reading previous comments before you make an ignorant comment like that. If you would have took the time to read, you would have read where I always have permission where I turn my dogs loose. But that doesn’t mean they won’t cross over onto someone else as property.

But to be honest I haven’t hunted with dogs in over 10 years so it doesn’t matter to me anymore. 10 years ago it was a lot different than today. More houses, more developments.

So you turn your dog loose with the full knowledge that it may trespass, claim you have the right to trespass if your dog leaves the property where you have permission to be and when your dog causes a nuisance to landowners by trespassing you call the cops on people who just want to be left alone on their land and don't want you to trespass, but I'm the ignorant one?

With that attitude I'm shocked people don't like dog hunters, it's such a charming perspective. That's some of the most arse backwards entitlement I have ever seen here.

Depends on the county. In a lot of counties, if it isn't posted you don't have to have permission legally.

And common decency doesn't seem to apply to dog hunting so you're all good. I bet you'll be screaming about your rights when you're armed and trespassing and met with an armed landowner defending the integrity of their property though.

When I had land I greeted all trespassers the same way, armed and prepared to defend myself. If you want your dog, keep it on your land.

I'm starting to get why people do not like dog hunting if those posting here are a representative sample of dog hunters. Entitlement that their sport trumps other people's property rights , demands that their trespass be accommodated, it's just such an endearing image.

You don't know jack about me or what I do. I'm just pointing out what the law is.

Sometimes it’s just common decency that was accorded to people in the past. As more people move into this state there is less and less of such. I personally don’t dog hunt and when I did I hunted large tracts that we owned or friends owned. I don’t feel entitled at all, yet I know that dogs sometimes go where they go. I’ve recovered and called the numbers on collars for more than my share yet I don’t get bent out of shape about it. Carrying a weapon onto my property is different and I treat that differently as I do people on atv’s and off roaders.

Given that there is an epidemic of theft, home invasions and assault in this country, the past is past.

If you are on my property without my express current permission I am going to treat you like a threat. Period.

Understandable, I just treat it differently. I’m always carrying and wary but I’ve grown up this way and it’s worked so far.

And I'm fine with anyone putting these pics on their FB or whatever forum might get some exposure.

I figure nothing can or will be done about this one incident, but it would please me if the info got back to them or someone that knows them.

Put a facebook market place ad with the pics. REWARD for these Tresspassers.
Post it in Your local area
