if the landowner wanted to he could legally use force himself to remove the protestors
under the law
12.1-05-06. Use of force in defense of premises and property.
Force is justified if it is used to prevent or terminate an unlawful entry or other trespass in or
upon premises, or to prevent an unlawful carrying away or damaging of property, if the person
using such force first requests the person against whom such force is to be used to desist from
his interference with the premises or property, except that a request is not necessary if it would
be useless or dangerous to make the request or substantial damage would be done to the
property sought to be protected before the request could effectively be made.
