[QUOTE="Mongo44, post: 681855, member: 3493"] When I was working for the feds, we would be out surveying for rare animals and plants on federal lands and have these kinds of jackasses appear out of nowhere completely lit and packing. We always just chirped our radios a few times and let the rangers show up and haul the guy off. When I was working as an environmental scientist, we would get contracts to be out and about doing environmental sweeps of property before they got purchased. Most of the time some irate old man missed a payment to the bank and was losing it to foreclosure. They'd threaten to kill us and bury us around back with the rest of the folks that had trespassed. Few even laid hands on us. i smacked a number of these guys in the face with a shovel and we headed towards the truck at lightning speed. Company policy was no firearms but I started carrying a pistol in a chest pouch with my gear. Worst case was a timber company in north florida was selling a tract to another firm and the hunting lease on the property was expiring/not being renewed. All the hunters were stalking the woods and would harass us as we did our sweeps. We got stuck at one point and had 2 gentlemen appear out of the swamp at random with a small arsenal strapped to them about 8 miles off the road the main road. I didnt hear vehicles and there were no buildings anywhere in that section of the property. They didnt talk to us and just stood there for an hour until the property manager showed up and pulled us out. Nerve wracking. [/QUOTE]
