“…when you purchase property, you can control who is allowed on it…”

If my car is run off the road onto your property, you can order me off your property, but I don’t think you can keep my car by not allowing me or my agents on your property to recover it.

Straw man. If someone accidentally ends up on your property and you want them off, you have the right to ask and expect them to leave, but you are also expected to be reasonable about how and when they get off the property. If there is not a consensus within the culture regarding what is reasonable, and the property owner or violater is unreasonable, well, that is why we have governments.

“Straw man.”

No. It’s a postulation. A postulation is a suggestion or assumption of the existence, fact, or truth of something as a basis for reasoning, discussion, or belief.

A straw man is an intentionally misrepresented proposition that is set up because it is easier to defeat than an opponent’s real argument. Sort of like your calling my postulation a straw man.

As for the rest of your post, we are pretty much in agreement.
