Depends on how exactly the person approaches the house. If they go up and just start screaming in their face, they could probably be trespassed, but there’s this legal principle known as “implied license,” which essentially just means that if you have a way to enter your property, you’ve sort of implied that you’re allowing people to go there for legitimate purposes, such as getting your attention, delivering mail, soliciting (unless a sign specifies otherwise), etc.
So even if they had a sign saying “no tresspassing,” if their neighbor were to walk over and knock on their door to let them know their back gate was left open, that wouldn’t be tresspassing, because it’s implied that they still are allowing people to walk on the footpath to their door, to get their attention for any purpose deemed reasonable or legitimate.
As a public servant, someone coming up to your door and trying to tell you something, or a journalist coming up to ask you some questions, could very well be considered covered by implied license, and thus not tresspassing, though I’m sure the courts would have to debate that a lot to actually determine if that’s the case given the situation.
Fucking finally. Dems always pull the “we won’t stoop to their level” BS all the time, and all it ends up doing is letting the right slowly seize more and more power.
I hope this will become a growing trend, but sadly I’m not very optimistic given how the party has acted prior to this.
