She had to be cut out of the wire and miscarried soon after.

    Not often you see someone defending deadly boobie traps because of, why, again? A made up line on a piece of paper signed off on by dead people?

    Or are you just a comma fucker who lives to obey the law?

      If he lived to obey the law he should look up Katko v. Briney. The case is notable for the proposition that, although a landowner has no duty to make his property safe for trespassers, he may not set deadly traps against them.

        Yea, fortunately barbwire IS NOT a booby trap and Katko v Briney wasn’t talking about barbwire.

          It’s razor wire, not barbwire. It caused life-threatening injuries (in one case caused a miscarriage - isn’t abortion murder, according to many folks?) and was deliberately placed in spots where it wouldn’t be seen.

          It’s a booby trap. It doesn’t have to literally be a shotgun set up in exactly the same way as Katko v Briney for it to count as one.
