(Just kidding. I learned Latin at school, but have forgotten most of it.)
I'd say the inscription means: " Don't touch me."
EDIT: Ops, Arkku was faster. I didn't know, though, that it is a saying.

Klaus, there is one thing in my message, called "smilie" and it's there to make it obvious it's a joke. It's the second time that I have to remark you that, you seem to always miss it.

Oh ho, Orio, I knew it in that regard, but I am sure it has no gospel connotation for the fellow who owns/rents that building. I suspect a hard-line right-winger. Isn't it odd he used "Logo," too? Crossed bamboo shafts and a cow skull, too?
Perhaps the sign painter meant to use the Greek word "logos," which has any number of meanings, including the Christian usage as the divine Word, and the stuff that makes up the universe.
I think I need to re-shoot that picture with Portra, and not overexpose it this time ...

In that case, sorry - but you did not put any smilie there to help with the understanding. And since it's the second time you publicly reproach me on a similar subject...

I just remembered that weird building is next to a good-sized Baptist church. Maybe the church youth group uses the building and got permission to "decorate." On the left wall is a huge red and white bullseye target.
Strange ...

Just remember that in Alabama, folks tend to reciprocate. Send over a .357 and they may send back a .44

Well, the writing 'makes sense', that's how.
