How to keep thieves off my property

[Tribal fisher]

Thanks for letting me know about the booby traps. I figured a person had the right to do whatever it takes to protect their own property. In Washington state I can shoot them as long as I drag them in the house and put a weapon in their hand. Of course I would never want to do that unless they were trying to physically harm someone. How about the helping to salvage the stuff since that's what's creating the problem. The lot owner split and ain't coming back is what I was told because he has $$$$$ in fines for the junk on his lot.
