Had a call from a person looking for a lawyer.
He had quite the request:
He wanted me to draft up a sign that could be posted on his property all legal-like alerting all persons including federal law enforcement most specifically ICE, that if they came onto his property without a warrant they would be met with deadly force.
As you may suspect, I politely declined to acquiesce to his request.
In other words, I said "Hell No".
Such a sign has no legal effect at all, and basically will help send the moron to jail if someone is ever shot by him on his property.
Apparently, the latest trend is thinking a sign magically stops ICE from enforcing immigration law, and the idiot thought he could get on the bandwagon with a clever sign.
Some people think that so long as you post a sign with some legalese, or otherwise use some legalese you find on the internet (especially if it uses Latin for some reason) then you can do a dumb and illegal thing with no consequences.
You cannot.
In Michigan you can use deadly force for only three reasons.
Someone trespassing on your property, federal agent or not, is absolutely not one of them.

I expect NumbNuts thinks arresting an illegal alien puts them at risk of Great Bodily Harm. Never mind that interfering with law enforcement is a crime that arguably disqualifies the citizen from using deadly force at all.
