If you are on public land you have only the rights enumerated in the Bill of Rights and a few assorted human and civil rights statutes. You are on public land by permission whether tacit or explicit. That includes paved and painted public road rights-of-way.

Amendment IX: "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."

Public land is just that - public. It is NOT the state's private property. The state is not a private property owner, and has no authority to act as such.

Au contraire:

Article [IX.]

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people.

Article [X.]

The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.
