A “fair warning” No Trespassing sign, because Woody Guthrie* doesn’t have any cachet here in America’s Third World County, except among the growing population of illiterates (and even worse, a-literates) one increasingly finds everywhere nowadays.

*As one commenter succinctly put it, in reference to a Glenn Beck commentary lambasting Woody Guthrie’s biggest hit, “‘This Land Is Your Land’ is not being rewritten by Glenn Beck as a Communist anthem—it actually is one.”

Sample:

“There was a big high wall there that tried to stop me.
A sign was painted said: Private Property.
But on the back side it didn’t say nothing —
This land was made for you and me.”

The whitewashed version most people know is sadly nothing but an expurgated version of Guthrie’s communist anthem.
