So seem to say the many residents of Columbia, IL, who ignore the various notifications of private property at the demarcation of the City Trail and the Gedern Village Trail. Signs are repeatedly torn down and taken, notices on the trail are scratched out. A neighbor does not appear to be with the rest of us and welcomes trespassers. And those folks run us down on their bikes. Their dogs champ at the bit to attack us and our dogs. The dogs leave remembrances as well. The crowds of joggers push us to the side.
All on our own property. No peaceful quiet walks any more. No safety any more.
Our HOA must take action soon as once the weather clears, it will be Katy bar the door.

Big Brother Listening In
Mr Mark Zuckerberg et al are listening in...all the time...?
The future is now and it's scary, eh?
I have a Facebook account for job seeking purposes. I rarely post to it. I don't zip around Facebook at all. I don't log on to see what others are posting. I have no idea what goes on at Facebook. That's a good thing.

Private Property Seems to Offend
When one talks to others, they are offended that they cannot use your property. Notifications of private property offend those who don't own it and want to enjoy the property owned and maintained by private parties. Scary, eh?
Defined private property rights are a basic ingredient to a free society and economy. We can keep what we work for (excepting taxes). No one can simply take what is our without our consent. That is what the Soviets and socialists do. This "redistributive justice" isn't fair or sensible. It creates further resentment and divisions.
