Sorry, Dan, but the harassment law will probably stand up in court. There
are similar laws in many states. One I can think is the law against
harassing people legally hunting in the state of Michigan. I would suggest
learning tried and true forestry techniques and help rather than hinder the
folks trying to make an honest living.
