I wonder if the laws regarding brandishing a weapon why on your own property when you have trespassers.

I realize this is California so the law is pretty much what anybody wants it to be.

I know an old man, now deceased, who confronted trespassers (who had been repeatedly breaking into his storage areas), at 3 am, on his remote property.

I think he had his 30-30.

He was convicted of brandishing, and spent at least a year in jail.

He had been a thorn in the authorities’ sides.
