I just installed my first "Private Property- No Trespassing" Signs this afternoon.  My days of luck have run out.  I went bass fishing this afternoon and came home to a neighbor informing me that a nice couple had been stripping my mango trees.  I may have to install an electric perimeter fence for my dog, thieves suck!

The front had as much as the sides.. I have these in front of my fruiting trees. I heard a rumor that a sniper with a pellet gun may be shooting thieves without my permission! Shame on him!!

Its a basic rule learned in kindergarten, leave others sh!$ alone!!! Its pretty simple concept to keep the peace and keep your butt from getting pellet sniped. But some have to learn the hard way lol

If you don't know where the u-pick mango farm is look at yourself in the mirror. It's your place.  I have had ten mangoes thieved off my trees which is more than the last few years.

Yeah Patrick! After a while like cock roaches they look at the sign no tree pass as an invitation to crash the party!  If you put a sign up saying Viet Cong land mine, POST Viet Vet and a couple decommission landmine as redneck ornaments; it works for my one eye Vietnam Vet Buddy in Loxahatchee!

Yesterday I was visting my friend's friend 80 acres Lychee Farm and they were busy harvesting it for New York!  While we were there inspecting their turtle farm on the site!  We heard a commotion from the workers; it appears half a dozen Indian family member from New Jersey entourage decided to google map and in their car caravan canvas Loxahatchee Memorial Weekend looking to buy Fresh Litchee to take back home to New Jersey! The farm owner came from New York and was shaken by the brazen security breach ( They own a chain of grocery stores up north & (one of their)this farm supply their stores up north.  I quickly pull out my concealed .45 and escort the fiesty arrogrant group half mile to the farm back gate (with the help of twenty two pissed off & embarrassed employees) were they park their cars with their children waiting in the cars and four sheriff officers came to help us deport them out off the area; its appear that other private lychee farms in area had well hell treepassers from out of town ignoring the no tree passing this weekend too!

The Owner told me she like me to speak to her husband in New York about security details since they are looking at future IPO and incidents like this hurt investor confidences!  Well I will be hiring off duty officers during their many peak harvest to guard the many gates and ex cartel enforcer as permanent year round duty for the workers!  I feel sorry for the little farmers in the area that does not have the clout as these folks!

Thank God Florida has concealed permit and stand your ground law!  I told these well heel Indian Doctors from New Jersey to take their kids to Disney Land & they can buy these Litchee in the Northeast at any of the Asian Groceries, intrusion like this could be quite deadly at other private farm in the area.  They were lucky that my Colt 45 save them from a beating from the Mexican & Chinese workers! I told the owner & authority not to press tree passing charge; the Parents have already been embarass by their US Borned Perfect English kids hiding in car chastizing their parents old world stupidity!😣. Tree passers come in all creed & color; just happen yesterday intruders were Indian Origin Medical Doctors ( Lawyers will be shot & compost on site of course😆)!  Yes even big businesses, we get headaches from people who think its ok to treepass & steal on Holiday!  Welcome to America land of free to steal!😩😫😭😡

That's some good stuff Coconaut.  Its a shame that David Letterman retired because you are a good comedian, he would have invited you on the show.

So it isn't just a Bermuda thing.  Never good to find stuff stolen, trespassers.  Some folks have a elaborate way of asking for help.  Coconut is helping them....
