I exclude the public as a whole from my home as it is a private place.
I do not make money from inviting the public at large to buy or sell

Would you think it fortunate if all property now publicly held were
placed in private hands and the Courts ruled that there was no freedom
of speech or assembly in *any* private property?
 
Tis a curious liberty the "Libert"atians defend!
 
Is the true color of "Libert"arians "liberty" now revealed?
