...The battle began in 1960 after North Carolina timberman Jack Taylor bought the land, including the mountain...

He bought the land, stay the hell out!


...Taylor put up a fence and ordered that trespassers be shot. There were frequent reports of tensions and beatings between the ranch and the valley residents...

I find that a herd of rottweillers chewing at the fence weaken most people's desire to trespass, but I only have a few acres.
