the way lawyers think leaving the gate open, or simply not having one, would be interpreted as an invite to come 'borrow' whatever his client needed to make a living.

that's how our open range laws work out here anyway.
it's your responsibility to keep the cows/sheep/horses out of your field if you don't want them eating your grass or garden.

When I was in Texas, you only had to prove intent when somebody was on your property and either threatening bodily harm or doing damage to your property.
In Mn. that same person needs to be in your home.
Rally,
Maybe I'm not sure exactly what you are saying, but the Liberal State of Minnesota actually has a pretty strong Self-Defense law...at least according to Ron Rosenbaum (a Minnesota Lawyer and radio talk show host, the show called Holding Court). I use to listen to him all the time (he passed away in 2016), he would talk about homicide and self defense law quite often. If your life is threatened (whether in your home or not), you can legally defend yourself...Now civilians (non-police officers), are subject to the law of reasonable escalation of force, just like Police officers are.

while I was looking (unsuccessfully), for some clips of his radio show with a topic of self-defense, I found this.

I keep a long gun in the truck durring rabbit and squirrel. Same method and place I kept it in the last truck. A gun I do not care much about. Box of ammo in the glove box.
Had the old truck broke, into they busted open the glove box and took the ammo plus my $20 emergency cash. But never found the gun, so I am pretty sure I have it hid well.
If they were to get the gun not to worried. Either a cheap raggedy, .22 or 12 guage.
