I presume it has something to do with visitors who don't want to be
disturbed. Some people don't allow photos, some don't allow tobacco,
some don't allow alcohol, some don't allow personal fragrances, some
don't allow cell phones. All seem reasonable to me. What part of
"private property" is so difficult to understand? The front half or the
back half?
Look, I'm not going to engage in any debate here about what activities
should or shouldn't be allowed when visiting someone's private property.
Everybody has rules and visitors are expected to abide them. When
they don't, they can expect to be treated with prejudice. Simple,
straight forward, easy to understand by consenting adults. I handle
that just fine, but that's just me.
