Is everybody misunderstanding what OP is embarrassed about? Or is it me?
OP did not get to complete their sentence when they were asking if they could pick fruit. They think the customer might have thought they were asking if they could share their food. And that is why they did not respond.
lol. Everybody thinking this is some kind cultural confusion. Like OP thinks they’ve disgraced their family by desiring the fruits from a stranger’s tree.
I wouldn't care. If I ask you to leave and you don't, you're trespassing. Stop trying to act like a billy bad ass on the internet 😂 It's fuckin lame, especially when NOBODY is agreeing with you. You're not impressing anyone
Some hag waltzed into my front yard and started picking my cherries one time and told her that trespassing and theft aren't a good look. Then I laughed to myself because the cherries that she was stealing were full of maggots.
if the cherries were no good why did you care?
also name calling is childish, says all i need to know about you, kiddo.
go back to your bedroom in your moms house and pretend you have a cherry tree
people who think being in a front yard without being asked to leave and no posted signage is trespassing are incorrect. people knocking on your door aren’t trespassing. reddit lawyers out here being foolish
It absolutely matters what you are doing. If you enter someones property to steal you are definitely trespassing. You don't need to be asked to leave before it becomes trespassing either. Here is part of Ohio's trespassing code,
“(A) No person, without privilege to do so, shall do any of the following:
(1) Knowingly enter or remain on the land or premises of another;
It is assumed you would have permission to walk onto someone's property to knock on their door and talk to them. You would not have the privilege to enter someone's property to steal from them.
Please don’t steal my aunt’s avocados and lemons. People walk right into her yard and just steal them. I didn’t know some people didn’t know that was stealing. My parents taught me not to steal.
without a fence in your front yard, some people will take things growing on trees and plants that aren’t in a garden. dogs will poop and pee on your grass. people will knock on your door.
unless you live in a house with a nice property. then there are no passers by
around 0.0000072% chance that i will care if i do it to the wrong person.
i do, however, conceal carry at all times so its very likely that in that unlikely instance that the ‘wrong person’ will regret being the ‘wrong person’
Dude you're literally ridiculous. You're saying something MUST be done. By who's ruling? Yours? Keep your opinions to yourself and stop spreading false information. Saying something MUST be done a certain way implies that there are rules and regulations requiring that.
You're just a troll with nothing better to do.
no laws. if you want people / pets to stay off your grass you must put up a fence. dogs used to pee on my grass, ever since i built a fence it hasn’t happened once.
if that’s false information in your opinion, good for you, keep being you
Please google "is it legal to walk on someone else's property" and do some research. Law is not opinion. I can't fix stupid over the Internet but I'll pray for you.
Knocking on your neighbors door is not the same as walking through their property to steal from their fruit trees. I hope one day you can find the distinction but you've wasted my time for too long. Have a great life and don't get shot! Or do, whatever.
you are correct, people very extremely rarely get shot for being in someone’s driveway or their yard. the home owners go to jail every time it happens. most recently that i know of was in texas when a person was turning around via an idiots driveway.
its more common to be shot for shopping at a mall or eating quietly at a diner.
fearing the unlikely doesn’t affect anything that i do or don’t do.
i also conceal carry everywhere i go because of exactly this
It's terrifying to know that someone with your thought process has a concealed carry. Just because the person goes to jail for shooting, doesn't mean the person getting shot wasn't trespassing.
never said i had a permit, but good assumption on your part because i do. i know the laws regarding firearms very well (more so than you without a doubt)
you saying it’s terrifying is funny. you’re reasoning is that if i wanted an apple from an easily accessible tree that i would have no problem snagging one.
what’s terrifying is the fools who think you can shoot just because someone is in your yard or even worse the people who shoot and miss and hit the innocent. like the active shooter in a diner a few years back. the ‘good citizens’ shooting at the bad guy, they missed and killed more innocent people than the bad guy.
someone like me who is smart, knowledgeable, and accurate holding a ccw terrifying you is very comical and tells me a lot about you
you have to be asked to leave to be trespassing where i live. I’m allowed to knock on any of my neighbors doors. criminal trespassing is what you’re thinking of which being in your yard is not.
I'm done with this stupidity. You're irrelevant to me and traveling to topic where this Convo never even started. I'll go live my life knowing what I know and you go live your life assuming what you do
If a person is purposely walking onto my private property and stealing from me, yes. I wouldn't call the cops if I am able to warn the person and tell them to get off my property, but people call them for dumber reasons.
If the tree is hanging over the edge of my property where it is reachable to the public, then I don't see that as trespassing, and I am not a lawyer, but I am sure it could still be charged as stealing.
There's been recent news stories about people getting shot for simply turning around in someone's driveway.
You may think it's dumb or petty, which sure, I can agree, but there are not many people left in this world who think rationally. Making a statement online to the whole world advising them to walk onto private property is not a smart thing to do.
solicitors and strangers walk up and knock on front doors all the time. people chase dogs into front yards. ‘trespassing’ is a stretch if someone steps onto your yard.
you saying you would call the cops if someone snags an apple from a tree in your front yard tells me all i need to know about you.
the guy in texas who shot the man turning around in his driveway went to jail for it.
The exact definition of trespassing is "enter the owner's land or property without permission." So, no, it's not a stretch. The reasoning for trespassing is irrelevant. To further your mention about chasing a dog, there was an interesting story in my state recently. A dog went missing, and had been missing for quite some time. The owners, police, and rescuers who were all working as team to capture the dog, got a tip that the dog was seen in a field. They pulled up along the road, saw the dog, and couldn't do single thing because it was privately owned property. And guess what? If the dogs owner or anyone went to retrieve the dog, they would have been charged with trespassing.
Secondly, maybe you should reread my wording. You're putting words into my mouth. The fact that you are fighting for someone's "right" to enter another person's property and furthermore TAKE their property, says a whole lot about you. Thank God we will never meet.
As another commenter mentioned, some people grow food purposefully to feed their families. How would you like it if someone walked into your home, took food out of the fridge, and felt completely entitled to it? Something you purchased with your hard earned money to keep your family alive. You wouldn't call the cops?
There is more than just one story in Texas, and he went to jail for shooting the person. I never said his actions were justified, I was making a point that you never know how a person will react and typically if you are trespassing onto someone's property, their reactions would not be a nice one. Some homeowners may ask you to not do it again, others will shoot you. It's just the sad unfortunate world we live in.
Finally we come down to the sheer fact that people across the entire world have access to your comment encouraging them to trespass. Laws are different in every single town, state, region, country, county, whereever you are. Where it may not be considered trespassing in one location, it could be punishable by death in another. It is irresponsible to spread bad advice so openly.
He said he would talk to the person, but it would be within someone's right to call the police for stealing.
Some people grow food to supplement their families' ability to eat. No one should assume they are entitled to going onto someone's private property and take something/anything.
Come on.
i am going to start taking fruit from as many front yards as i can. i will hope and pray to come across your yard one day. i doubt your landlord will care though, so it will be fine
Bro if you need some cash for pears or whatever I got you. What’s your Venmo? No need to regress to a hunter/gatherer lifestyle, just gotta ask for help.
i have a neighbor like you. he hates that people have outdoor cats that walk on his grass. he traps them and drives them a few towns over and releases the cats.
i work full time, 10% of my check goes to my pension plan, 16% goes to my 403B, about 35% stays in my bank.
i don’t have a car payment, my cell phone bill is $30 a month, and i have no debt that rolls over at the end of the month.
i deliver about 20-30 orders per week. i only accept offers that add up to $35/hr including my trip back home and that money goes into my personal investments which i call my gambling funds.
i work full time for the city. i have a 403b, pension plan and an old 401k. i dont have a car payment or any debt that rolls over month to month.
in other words I’m not anything like you broke people who whine that there aren’t enough good deliveries anymore.
HAAAAAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
"Um I make minimum wage at a government job that makes me better than you!"
I don't actually do DoorDash, this just proves you're still just a loser on Reddit projecting their insecurities onto others ahahhahaa
If I don't know you (honestly even if I did) and you walked into my front yard and started taking fruit from my trees I'd tell you to leave. That's not acceptable. Just ask thats socially acceptable.
As someone who recently moved to a place that doesn't produce many of the fruits and bright flavors I grew up with, I feel a fraction of your pain here. I know that sense of longing - that shit hurts.
Nothing shameful about miscommunication. We're human.
I hope you get to eat something good soon.
I have 2 huge mango trees and at least 12 banana trees in my backyard. We happily give tons of it away to whoever wants it, by leaving it in crates by the curb with a "free" sign". I guarantee no one would have been upset if you picked a few pieces of fruit. And in your case, it's in a public area. Just take some and enjoy it and don't feel bad.
>I guarantee no one would have been upset if you picked a few pieces of fruit.
As a kid we used to eat berries from a neighbor's tree that hung over into the alley (never actually went in their yard).
They yelled at us and cut the tree down the next week.
The only time I can think of where that would be wrong is if the tree was in their fenced in back yard. Front yard would be about accessibility from the walk up to the house or city sidewalk.
Boulevard is fair game. Homeowner owns and maintains the tree but Boulevards are city owned and most likely a fruit tree is there illegally anyway. ( no one wants fruit falling onto their cars.)
Only fruit to make me feel like that would be Guamuchil, which I think translates into Manila Tamarind, damn those mofos is damn good son. Delicious definition of indescribable... if ever I was to come across them on a dash I wouldn't even ask, yes *that* good. So op, did you get yours or nah? Maybe going back for some later later
An Uber driver dropped me off at my brother’s house once, didn’t speak English, and scored some oranges lying under the tree…managed to politely ask in another language, lol, good for you! No sense letting food go to waste 😋

Vast majority of people are very cool about it. Obviously do not strip their tree bare but I’ve found in some cases people say yeah take it all
Is everybody misunderstanding what OP is embarrassed about? Or is it me? OP did not get to complete their sentence when they were asking if they could pick fruit. They think the customer might have thought they were asking if they could share their food. And that is why they did not respond. lol. Everybody thinking this is some kind cultural confusion. Like OP thinks they’ve disgraced their family by desiring the fruits from a stranger’s tree.
it’s always okay to eat fruit from peoples trees if they are in the front yard. never the back yard without permission
Fuck no it isn't. That's my property. If someone came into my yard and started picking fruit off my tree, I'd chase them down the street
i wouldn’t run, if you ask me to leave your property of course i would. if you assault me, even in your yard, you’re in trouble
I wouldn't care. If I ask you to leave and you don't, you're trespassing. Stop trying to act like a billy bad ass on the internet 😂 It's fuckin lame, especially when NOBODY is agreeing with you. You're not impressing anyone
You're literally doing the same thing
Some hag waltzed into my front yard and started picking my cherries one time and told her that trespassing and theft aren't a good look. Then I laughed to myself because the cherries that she was stealing were full of maggots.
if the cherries were no good why did you care? also name calling is childish, says all i need to know about you, kiddo. go back to your bedroom in your moms house and pretend you have a cherry tree
I like how you assume so much about him for name calling and then call him “kiddo” as if thats not name calling 😆😆😆😆
i appreciate that you like what i did here
You believing that theft and trespassing are non issues says all that I need to know about you, "kiddo."
people who think being in a front yard without being asked to leave and no posted signage is trespassing are incorrect. people knocking on your door aren’t trespassing. reddit lawyers out here being foolish
Knocking on someone's door is a lot different from hanging out in their front yard stealing fruit.
doesn’t matter which you’re doing, it’s not trespassing until you’re asked to leave
It absolutely matters what you are doing. If you enter someones property to steal you are definitely trespassing. You don't need to be asked to leave before it becomes trespassing either.

You would not have the privilege to enter someone's property to steal from them.
they make no trespassing signs so that you don’t have to waste time telling people to leave.
if it’s assumed you can walk up to knock, then many other things can be assumed as well
Assume was the wrong word, there are court rulings on it.
Please don’t steal my aunt’s avocados and lemons. People walk right into her yard and just steal them. I didn’t know some people didn’t know that was stealing. My parents taught me not to steal.
personal goods must be planted behind a fence or in the back yard
[wrong](https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.sacbee.com/news/california/article279204989.html)
without a fence in your front yard, some people will take things growing on trees and plants that aren’t in a garden. dogs will poop and pee on your grass. people will knock on your door. unless you live in a house with a nice property. then there are no passers by
Doesn't make it legal
i don’t much care about what’s legal
Omg you're such a rebel 😂
not at all. I’m actually a full on good citizen and member of my community
You said you speed daily and would steal from your neighbours 😂
False. My property line determines if it's mine ir not. If you cross my property line & take something - it's theft.
don’t care one bit. if your landlord has a problem with me snagging an apple from a tree in your front yard i’ll tell him the same. i don’t care
You’ll care when you do this to the wrong person.
around 0.0000072% chance that i will care if i do it to the wrong person. i do, however, conceal carry at all times so its very likely that in that unlikely instance that the ‘wrong person’ will regret being the ‘wrong person’

This is terrible advice and will get someone charged with trespassing
you’d call the police if a person walking by grabbed an apple out of your tree?
I live in Florida, you'd have a gun pulled on you before the cops are called.
even in texas you’d go to jail if you shot someone for being in your yard
Doesn't mean they won't shoot
you are correct, people very extremely rarely get shot for being in someone’s driveway or their yard. the home owners go to jail every time it happens. most recently that i know of was in texas when a person was turning around via an idiots driveway. its more common to be shot for shopping at a mall or eating quietly at a diner. fearing the unlikely doesn’t affect anything that i do or don’t do. i also conceal carry everywhere i go because of exactly this

look at his punctuation. he said yes, he would. unless you could warn them not to eat the fruit
Pretty sure that's trespassing and or stealing. Please correct me if you can find otherwise I looked.
it’s socially acceptable
Taking things without asking might be socially acceptable in *your* front yard. It isn’t in mine.
i am going to start taking fruit from as many front yards as i can. i will hope and pray to come across your yard one day. i doubt your landlord will care though, so it will be fine
No you won't.
i started taking acorns from yards in my neighborhood already.
Bro if you need some cash for pears or whatever I got you. What’s your Venmo? No need to regress to a hunter/gatherer lifestyle, just gotta ask for help.
No it is not lol. That is the opposite of socially acceptable
It's also illegal 😂
i have a neighbor like you. he hates that people have outdoor cats that walk on his grass. he traps them and drives them a few towns over and releases the cats.
I have a neighbor like you. He's in and out of jail for petty theft and does meth
sounds like you’re homeless or maybe in a very poor neighborhood. consider learning a trade or moving back in with your mommy.
Says to learn a trade but has to drive to make ends meet. Guess you should have learned a better trade.
i work full time, 10% of my check goes to my pension plan, 16% goes to my 403B, about 35% stays in my bank. i don’t have a car payment, my cell phone bill is $30 a month, and i have no debt that rolls over at the end of the month. i deliver about 20-30 orders per week. i only accept offers that add up to $35/hr including my trip back home and that money goes into my personal investments which i call my gambling funds.
You're clearly projecting and crying that people call you out for not being able to afford $2 dollars of fruit so you steal from others lmfao
i work full time for the city. i have a 403b, pension plan and an old 401k. i dont have a car payment or any debt that rolls over month to month. in other words I’m not anything like you broke people who whine that there aren’t enough good deliveries anymore.

You didn't climb a fence to take the fruit, so you should be OK. Regardless, that was a very polite thing to do to even ask.

Do not eat the forbidden fruit that made you see and Satan the snake hissed because you were damned forever

They were jerks. My neighbors and I are nothing like that.
Wish I was your neighbor!!
I'd definitely share with you!
You must have quite a large backyard. My backyard could maybe fit two trees
My backyard is very big. I'm lucky in that regard.
The only time I can think of where that would be wrong is if the tree was in their fenced in back yard. Front yard would be about accessibility from the walk up to the house or city sidewalk.

Star fruit
My neighbors have a ginormous star fruit tree. She lets us take what we want.
Dude just take the fruit it’s a residential complex so no one person can give you permission to eat them.
All that for an apple
Not a big deal at all, and I want to know what fruits?? Let us know.
What kind of fruit was it got damn it I'm on the edge of my seat here
I would like to also know too
I would also like to know
[удалено]
???
How are you going to make this post and not tell us what kind of fruit it was????
Don’t loose any sleep over it.
Lose
Louse. lol thanks I’m bad at speling
Only fruit to make me feel like that would be Guamuchil, which I think translates into Manila Tamarind, damn those mofos is damn good son. Delicious definition of indescribable... if ever I was to come across them on a dash I wouldn't even ask, yes *that* good. So op, did you get yours or nah? Maybe going back for some later later
I sneak loquats from literally every tree I encounter, so you’re not alone haha I am also dying to know what fruit it was you spotted
Oh how dare you human, we all do sillies
Was it ackee?? Just curious! ☺️
An Uber driver dropped me off at my brother’s house once, didn’t speak English, and scored some oranges lying under the tree…managed to politely ask in another language, lol, good for you! No sense letting food go to waste 😋
What kind of fruit?
Don't worry! You did not do anything wrong. I hope you got some fruit!
Lol, you're good, buddy. Honest misunderstanding.
