Letter Re: Railroads Tracks and Right of Ways as Bug-Out Routes

Sir:
I thought that I would put in my 2 cents on accessing property with a bolt cutter. If you need to go through a gate don’t cut the lock unless there is no other alternative! Snipping a link out of the chain next to the lock and allowing the lock owner to relock the gate next time they come by is much more forgivable than making them run in and get a new lock cut keys and distribute keys to whoever needs them. Many times we will snip out a link and put our own lock on the chain so we use our lock and others use theirs. I appreciate the resource your blog is to us! – SC
