Now, if someone sowed a minefield and did -not- give such proper notice, and it caused an innocent person to be injured or killed, that person should be punished severely, since their willful negligence caused the injury of another person.
However, what one does with ones' property is ones; own buisiness, and that includes who one chooses to defend it. I have no sympathy for the burgaler who steps on a Bouncing-Betty.

Do you have sympathy for the illiterate wandering child or the lost dog who may wander onto a land mine?
You aren't anti civilian land mine, but you are for the regulated(proper warnings) usage of civilian land mines? How is that any different that someone being for the regulated use of guns?
