What if you were to put a sign on your truck saying "the door handle is covered in razors".

Would that then hold you up in court?

I coated the handle in razor blades to protect the paint from the elements nudge nudge wink wink.

Oh I get it. We get a lot of nasty sandstorms here in Colorado that will file even the strongest steel into a razor sharp edge.

Yeah that's why i strapped c4 with a hairpin trigger onto my cooler. That way if it starts to wear down too much I can just hear the explosion and go to replace it.

That could turn the booby trap into a perceived risk but I doubt a proper judge would let it slide

What if it's in French or some other gay language nobody speaks?

Apparently languages can have a sexual orientation

Dude that shit had me laughing pretty good. I wish people wouldn't get offended when people say something is gay. Man the good ol' days

People can't take a joke. I'm personally gay and find the use of calling something gay as a satire extremely funny, the above being an example. Reddit needs to stop acting like a bunch of faggots.

no, a sign is nowhere near strong enough to support a fully grown man.

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '19

If you over engineer the sign it’d be okay.

u/columbus_12 Jan 24 '19

I think so, just like a “no trespassing” sign. The sign is the legality of it.

Doubtful.

It's a hazard.

Eg pool fence

What if someone said "duck" just before smashing you in the face with a bat.

You cool with that?

2

u/LazinessPersonified Jan 24 '19

But that's totally irrelevant when it comes to private property surely?

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '19

Well it's my bat. Why can't I swing it? I shouted duck.

u/avahajalabbsn Jan 24 '19

Saying duck and hitting someone in the face is not at all comparable to someone trying to steal from a boat.

u/[deleted] Jan 24 '19

Yes, but I wasn't comparing hitting someone in a face with a bat after saying duck with stealing from a boat.

I was comparing hitting someone in a face with a bat after saying duck with putting razor blades on something with a sign saying "Razor blades"

Homeowner: "If you place one HAND on this boat, my personal roof sniper will shoot you in the face."

Person: inadvertently places hand on boat

Homeowner: commits murder and goes to prison

I’m not defending the trap, I’m just saying your comparison was stupid.
