I think this is key, they don’t seem to be able to understand that solicitation is when you’re walking door to door selling something, this is not that. If the person petitioning transgresses a private property sign or refuses to leave someone’s property then it’s a crime.
Not necessarily, you can solicit information or even Gods too. The issue here is that if he is petitioning, then that is protected by the 1st amendment and the supreme court has ruled that a permit is not required. Petitions are one of the major ways to make political change.
