Okay so its been beat up pretty good here, I'm not trying to flog the dead horse. Trying to make a point elsewhere. Looking for any caselaw where someone in Texas has been cited on private property for carrying a weapon, or any other case that supports the fact that visible private property really ain't private (like someone growing pot in the front yard, that kind of thing). My googlfu sucks.

a guy in Fort Worth arrested doing yard work in his own yard with his weed whacker.
Due to the plain view violation of Disorderly Conduct, Deputy Rowland ....
You'll have to read the rest on the link in your PM,I'm not posting the story's link here (13 year old daughter rule)

Doesn't everyone do their yardwork in the buff?
