19. Oh good grief! That is a complete and intentional misreading of what I wrote.

There is an enormous difference between explaining the legal mechanism of a trespass charge and endorsing the outcome. I have already explicitly called the town's actions "completely unacceptable public governance."

Explaining how a clock is used to trigger a statute isn't an "excuse," and it isn't an endorsement. It is a factual observation of the legal reality. Attacking me with the accusation that I am accepting a police state, simply because I pointed out how time-and-place restrictions work in a public forum under constitutional law is absurd!

I'm done repeating myself to someone who refuses to read my actual words.

Have a good day.
