WILLMAR, Minn. (AP) – A 50-year-old man told authorities he was fed
up with teens toilet-papering his house during homecoming week. This
year, he decided to defend his property—with a squirt gun filled with
fox urine.

Now, Scott Wagar is in trouble with the law. He pleaded not guilty on
Wednesday in Kandiyohi County District Court to misdemeanor assault
and other charges. He was released on personal recognizance.

According to police, on Sept. 16, Wagar used night vision goggles and
saw 15-20 people running toward his place. He told them to leave and
sprayed them with the fox urine. He also struggled with one teen who
he says grabbed him from behind.

In an interview with The Associated Press on Thursday, Wagar says he’s
innocent, and has a right to defend his property. He says groups of
teens have been toilet-papering and egging his house during homecoming
for about eight years, and each year it gets more destructive.

He says he sprayed the kids with a mixture of one-third fox urine and
two-thirds water because “it stinks, but it doesn’t hurt anything.”

Where to start….oh, I don’t know…maybe, WHERE DOES SOMEONE GET FOX
URINE?!?! Is this something you can by at a store? Maybe it is
something people spray on gardens to keep squirrels away or that type
of thing. The man was very considerate to dilute it to only 1/3
strength.

And it is pretty crazy that he is being charged for misdemeanor
assault. In Texas, I think based on the circumstances (night time,
people trespassing on your property), it possibly could have been
legally justified to shoot at them with a real gun, rather than a
squirt gun. And considering that diluted animal urine doesn’t cause
any permanent damage and he was protecting his property using
non-lethal means, it is pretty ridiculous to charge him with a crime.
If anything, he should be commended for using a squirt gun with fox
urine rather than brandishing an actual firearm.

So it seems to me that the local officials have overstepped their
bounds and infringed upon a person’s right to defend their property.
So on behalf of all Americans and those who cherish the Second
Amendment, I say to all the teen hooligans and vandals, all the
bureaucrats and politicians, YOU’LL HAVE TO PRY THE FOX URINE FROM MY COLD DEAD HANDS!
