GPL license offerers are much more akin to homeowners who are trying to rip off their invited guests by tempting them to accept an illegal contract.

Nice self-nuke on your part there...

You either have a legal contract or you are tresspassing.

I don't think that you understood the analogy. Let me put it in what might be a more understandable form. Say you go to Chicago for the Open Source Expo and you and your buddies, being new to the big city, are wandering up State Street and get enticed into a titty bar. Then some sweet honeys cozy up to you and ask you to buy them a drink. "Sure!", you say, flattered by such attention. Then later you find that the tab for the girls' drinks are not what
 you expected and are some $50 apiece.  "Pay up or we will call the
 cops!" is what you are told.

Now that is more akin to the way that unsophisticates are lured into using the "free" GPL code and then are hammered for their birthright by the SFLC. "Ignorance is no excuse!", they say, "What's yours is now ours, you have been touched!"

AHAH !!!!!!

By using the analogy of a "titty bar" you are displaying your ugly
misogynist side. Your sexist remarks have set women's rights
back at least a half century.

FOR SHAME !!!!
