I know several property owners along the Guadalupe River outside New Braunfels. They see thousands of tubers and others floating down the river on a weekly basis. And they have to deal with loud obnoxious behavior, trash, trespassing and yes - public urination - on a daily basis.

They’re not the type to shoot someone over it, but.....

Do alligators survive winter there?

Something to think about!

I’m sure La could spare a few.

In Oregon the land owner owns to the ordinary high water line, it is public land below there. So at times of the year it is possible / legal to walk along the bank and fish or swim. There are some navigable/non-navigable water issues that affect this right, I do not recall what they are at the moment.
I understand why this guy was fed up with people using his property like a toilet, but damn just get a dog!

Crocker told police the shooting came as the culmination of a dispute over whether the group was trespassing or not, and he fired after a man approached him with rocks in his hands. Paul Dart wasn’t the one with the rocks.

A real mess, but I know I would have felt threatened if someone with whom I was arguing approached me with rocks in his hands. Also why didn't they just leave? If some guy is running you off with a gun it's might stupid to stay and agrue with him.

Point out to them that poison ivy and poison sumac are their friends. A little fence and a thick poison sumac hedge should work wonders to coral the tubers.

1. Posted / No Trespassing signs.

2. Electric cattle fences. If they do not know what the insulators are for, they need to learn. Probably best to post “electric fence” sign right under the No Trespassing sign as a counter lawyer measure.

Are they the ones that tried to close the river to rafters a few years back, peddling some horse s**t about how their old Spanish land grant superseded Texas state law on navigable waterways?

When people buy properties along a navigable public waterway, they have to expect the revelry that goes with any body of water.

If they don’t then they are morons, no matter how wealthy they or their ancestors may be.

If you can’t handle it, then get out of there.

(and going off into the trees is NOT public urination)
