I've never really understood why these laws exist, but I think it might have something to do with professional courtesy. I think all lawyers are scum suckers who haven't forgotten where they come from so they extend certain protections and privileges to the common thieves. This is just my opinion though.

All the fun stuff:
Strings to fire guns when you open the door,
Exposives rigged to trip wires on the stairs,
Electrocution when you grab the doorknob,
Bucket of gasoline & a match,
Poisoning in general,
Pointing fireworks at criminals,
Tiger traps (deep hole, covered with sticks & leaves) / pungee pits (same hole with sharp pointy things in the bottom)
All illegal.
My dog digging ankle breakers however is a natural hazzard, just like rain and undisturbed snow (if you shovel the snow & someone falls, it's negligence).
Personally, I figure if the criminal weren't messing with property that belongs to someone else (me specifically), the criminal would have no need to worry about whatever 'modifications' may have been made that ensure the property is unsafe. "But what about the children?" Train your kids not to mess with other people's things & they might live to reproduce; otherwise: "Ka-Blam! Elimination. Lack of education." (Walt Disney's The Fox & the Hound) I'm a pretty firm believer in Darwinism & that the gene-pool needs some chlorine.

Hee - yeah we must protect the guilty!! (Rallem; for the most part I do agree - although my husband is a lawyer - and he's a very nice man - really; there are a few good ones out there!) Where we live now we have many guns and I'd actually pity the fool who would try to mess with us - heh. I realize not all states are the same regarding weapons law; but those booby trap laws were put on the books due to a case in Colorado where a guy whose warehouse had been consistently broken into and robbed rigged up a shotgun and actually killed one asshole and maimed another; and HE was the one sent to jail for the longest time. So ridiculous.
