I'm sure you think your a scary guy with the guns and all.... but I'm neither afraid of nor intimidated by guns and knives. I'd bet I have quite a few more guns and knives than you do. My buildings are my livelihood and I will look out for them. Sometimes that means I will have to enter without the tenant around. Most landlords will.
You might want to rethink that. Anyone who invades my home is taking their life in their own hands.
I don't really care what the landlord is hollering, when I recall it to the police it will be something like "He was hollering that the rent was late and he was going to kill me with his knife. I was in fear of my life. Then he busted in and charged right at me. I had to fire in self defense as the man was obviously in an insane rage with the intent to kill."
While I'm renting a place that is my home and I have the right to defend it with deadly force if necessary. If there's a real emergency I'll be on top of it, if I'm not there then I won't be there to shoot anyone anyways. So the only real circumstance anything would happen is if the landlord is breaking and entering into my home for an illegal purpose.
If the law is 24 hours notice then feel free to post it on my door. But if you don't actually notify me (e.g. I don't see it) you better not invade my home. That's just how it is.

In many states there are no self defense laws. In my state, if you shot someone for entering your house and especially if theyre unarmed, youve just earned yourself a life sentence for murder. No matter what according to law the landlord always has ownership and right over it.
Many things you say are fine to believe in theory if you choose to,but the law wont side with you on it and in the end you'll wish you saw things differently if it really went down at all.
The LL only has to give at least 24 hour notice but they can say that theyll be entering for the entire week if they want and dont have to specify specific times or dates just a vague window of time at best.

Even in states with no explicit self defense laws, if someone tries to kill you and you kill them instead, I believe that you are in the clear.
If the person is dead, its your word against no one.

I doubt the LL would be trying to kill anyone, FF was talking about just entering without notice.
In my state and in many others, you're not in the clear. In my state, you shoot someone for any reason and they die you sit in jail for murder. There have been numerous cases even where abusive husbands tried to stab their wives with clear intent to kill them and the wife shot their husband and guess what, they sit in jail for murder. Maynt be right but thats the law round these parts. Around here the law doesnt believe there is ever any reason to take another life.
Thats just like someone can punch you in the face for no reason at all, but if you hit him back, you get nailed for assault as well as the other person. They dont tolerate anything here.

You clearly have no idea how landlord/tenant law works. Being an internet badass seems your strong point.
All I need to do to give 24 hour notice is put a note on your door. That is considered legal service. You don't have to like it but that's the way it is.
But hey, good luck you internet bad boy.
I have an idea. Post a pic of you beating on your chest. Maybe we'll all be impressed!
-------------------- You cannot legislate the poor into prosperity by legislating the wealthy out of prosperity. What one person receives without working for another person must work for without receiving. The government cannot give to anybody anything that the government does not first take from somebody else. When half of the people get the idea that they do not have to work because the other half is going to take care of them and when the other half gets the idea that it does no good to work because somebody else is going to get what they work for that my dear friend is the beginning of the end of any nation. You cannot multiply wealth by dividing it. ~ Adrian Rogers
