Must be a Montana thing. In WV, folks measure their wealth by how many babies they have. The more babies, the higher your standing. Heaven help the fool in WV that hurts a baby - even if said in jest.

Well, just pointing out I find it less than coincidental political parties are associated with barnyard animals. Donkeys, elephants, foxes, weasels, parrots... lions and tigers and bears, oh my!

Folks truly interested in peace ought to lower the price of fences so I can keep that guano off my porch.

If you want to borrow my tools every other day, I would not welcome you.

If you harass me in any way, I would not welcome you.

If you blare music of any kind outside, I would not welcome you.

If you disrespect my enjoyment of nature in any way, I would not welcome you.

If you are a drug dealer or engage in any other criminal activity as a means of income, I would not welcome you.

If you swat at hummingbirds or honey bees, I would not welcome you.

It all boils down to what kind of person you are. There is no generic answer across the board for that question for all people.

What if I was operating a still in the woods behind my house?
