A literal translation of certain parts won't convey the same meaning:

Aviso

Se le advierte a cualquiera que entre a esta propiedad con intención de dañar o robar a la familia, que se usarán armas para ahuyentarlos. Sin disparos de advertencia.

"Lethal force" is used to mean firearms most times, and you'll hardly hear in Spanish that "we don't take hostages"

Aviso: Se le advierte a cualquier persona que ose entrar en esta propiedad con la intención de hacer daño o robar a la familia que utilizaremos la fuerza letal para detenerlos. No tomamos rehenes.
