Is permanent stand legal?

Why wreck another hunters place?  I think we have enough problems just getting into the woods, we all need to relax a bit and admire some guys hard work and just let it be, wish him luck. 
 
When I have found an elevated stand I have just looked it over, then kept moving. I have had guys sit in my natural foilage blinds in elk country. Maybe they have taken a nap in them too as I have..., who knows. They didnt leave trash or anything else, just their boot prints.
 
We should all relish the fact that there are other guys like us, getting out in the woods doing the same thing we like to do.

Unless the person was caught in the act there wouldnt really be any way for them to get prosecuted would there?

Just pee all over the area and leave it alone.

That  may not work out the way you think. I have quit peeing in a bottle and now piss right off my stand to the ground!! I have found over the years that human urine does not spook deer if anything it attracts them. More than once I have had bucks stop right at the piss pot and lick at the dirt. I also now have 5 pope and young bucks on the wall that wish the piss did spook them.
 If you really want to annoy them though take a dump on the wooden platorm

It depends (no pun intended) on where you are hunting.  If you are hunting the back 40 over a pile of bait the deer are more than likely use to the smell of human urine (and other human scents) and are not as allarmed by it.  If you are hunting high pressured public land where they are chased around a lot any human scent can make them leery.  I piss all over my place and the deer don't seem to mind but I can garr-un-tee you that if you took a leak on the ground where I hunt, you would not see a mature buck no matter how long you sat there.
