21. I'm not "breaking and entering" because two gates are open.
The back door of the house is also open, and also the door to the garage apartment. Plus a LOT of the stuff is simply strewn all over the yard.
I did have a small problem a couple of weeks ago, when a very aggressive young woman yelled out to me as I was going in through the side gate. She informed me she was "from the bank" and that if she saw me entering the property she was going to call the police. "Why?" I said. "All of this stuff is only going to be thrown away anyway."
"That's true," she said. "But if you enter the property you are trespassing."
But even after that they STILL didn't secure the property! Both gates are still open, the back door to the house is still open, etc.
It's almost as though they WANT people to come and salvage, because the more we take the less there is for them to throw away. It's like the message is, "Just don't let us catch you doing it."
Holy crap!!! That's DUmmie life logic in a nutshell!

No, my friends, there’s only one really progressive idea. And that is the idea of legally limiting the power of the government. That one genuinely liberal, genuinely progressive idea — the Why in 1776, the How in 1787 — is what needs to be conserved. We need to conserve that fundamentally liberal idea. That is why we are conservatives. --Bill Whittle
