Yep, pretty funny at first glance! Until you realize that a "no trespassing" sign is a legal means of protecting your property from, say, people dumping their trash in your yard, or posting placards or political signs, or iviting themselves to the apples growing on your trees, or a host of other things. Then you have legal recourse. Maybe this Kingdom Hall has been subject to vandalism or theft. Any property owner has the right to post a "no tresspassing" sign. It's supposed to keep the bad guys out. It says, in effect, "If you weren't invited, don't come onto this property". How effective it is would be a good question, but it does carry legal implications for violators.
Unfortunately it also projects an attitude of "you're not welcome here", which is the last thing Jehovah's Witnesses want to say to persons coming to the Kingdom Hall to learn about what goes on at the Hall, or to learn about the Bible. However, nearly always the people who come to the Kingdom Hall have been invited, so the "no tresspassing" sign is a moot point in that case.
"Just curious because they come by my house every Saturday."
Jehovah's Witnesses stop and come up to your door at your house every Saturday? You must live in a really small town with a huge number of Jehovah's Witnesses living there. Or else you just might be exaggerating a little bit.
This is my GQ husband. He is the most kind, gentle, patient man I have ever met. He is an amazing father to our two little boys. God has truly blessed me with a man who seeks to be more like Him.
This is my adorable almost 4 year old Fischer. He is full of energy and life...and he has never met a stranger. He loves Scooby-Doo, pasta, and pretending to be a superhero. He likes to be goofy when I take his picture...you didn't notice right?
This is my little...I mean big...hunk of burning love. He loves his big brother and will flash you an award winning smile complete with dimples. He is into EVERYTHING and knows exactly what he wants...and he isn't afraid to tell you.

I can see why you'd laugh, though. LOL!

Funny picture/comment, in any case.
That is funny. Maybe they need to re-think that sign!
