    All are welcome here was a campaign for welcoming refugees, I think. The no trespassing was for people wanting to fish from the river bank on their property that bordered public land, most of whom are first generation immigrants, Hispanic or Hmong. I interpreted it “people are welcome in our country, just not like, HERE.” I mean, I get it, but it had some of the same energy as this post.

      Just FYI most places, if the water is navigable (usually around 3ft) there’s a right of way a few feet either side of the bank.

      Not a great idea to get into an argument with the land owner but legally it might give them some cover regarding fishing access.
