Is it a Law, or an Act?

Where does the Law of the land come from?

So many people are confined by "the law of the land".  Who's law is that?

Most of the things that control the population of the UK are Acts and not Laws.

Vehicle Licensing Act.  Road Traffic Act.  Acts of Parliament.  TV Licensing Act.  NONE of them are Laws.  They are Acts.  You have no legal duty of abide by an act.

It is the same with the unwashed brigade masquerading as

Ramblers.  I see these 'people' with their anoraks and their packed lunches of pork pies and hard boiled eggs, walking across fields and private land for no other reason than they believe they can.

They get no enjoyment from it.  They do it because they believe they can and it's the only way these interlopers can get any sense or feeling of accomplishment in their wasted lives, by trampling over other peoples land illegally.

These so-called 'public footpaths' were for the serfs to walk from A to B. They weren't for the public. The public have never walked anywhere - they've had horses and cars and things.

Do you really think the lord of the manor walked along a footpath? Of course not.

They were just for the serfs. Remember that prior to 1700 and something, nobody had any rights here anyway, they were all slaves.

But normal people walk down legal country lanes, or on public land.

Why do people have to trespass on not just my land, but any private land? And what kind of people go rambling? (Weird people!)

 People who do that sort of thing don't have an eye for beauty, they don't respect people's property. The majority of people who go rambling don't have any good taste. 

There is a pathway between two properties that I own.  Both the properties are empty, I use them for storage of some of my personal historical artifacts.  Also its a way of keeping important documentation away from the prying eyes of the nosey busy bodies who want to know everything about you.  Ramblers occasionally walk in between the buildings as somewhere, in the dim and distant past, some idiot said it was a public right of way.

I put a 6 foot iron gate up.  They climbed over it.  I filled the area with old fridges and freezers.  They climbed over them.

I got a few of my people to scour the areas for those little bombs that Dogs with badly trained owners leave behind and they collected enough to cover the pathway.  They didn't come over again.  They were lucky: it was going to be mantraps next time...

Let's see if they are still smiling after THAT!
