I saw a yard sign once that said "all are welcome here", right next to the "no trespassing" sign. Struck me as contradictory and made me curious what it meant to them.
“all are welcome here”, right next to the “no trespassing” sign
I read that as "I don't care who you are or what you look like, just make sure you're invited first"
All are welcome here was a campaign for welcoming refugees, I think. The no trespassing was for people wanting to fish from the river bank on their property that bordered public land, most of whom are first generation immigrants, Hispanic or Hmong. I interpreted it "people are welcome in our country, just not like, HERE." I mean, I get it, but it had some of the same energy as this post.
Just FYI most places, if the water is navigable (usually around 3ft) there's a right of way a few feet either side of the bank.
Not a great idea to get into an argument with the land owner but legally it might give them some cover regarding fishing access.
