Property Rights And Monitoring

Summary

If you are on private property, the owner or their representative has the right to monitor and ask you to leave. Moving to public property, like a sidewalk, is an appropriate response. If there was no further escalation or harassment, no legal action is typically necessary. Consult a local attorney for specific concerns.

Well as soon as we heard the woman and we went on the sidewalk and just walked away
If you were on private property (like the grass of a business) and the owner or an employee asked you to leave, they generally have the right to do so. Moving to the sidewalk, which is public property, was likely the appropriate response to avoid conflict. Let me know if there’s more to this situation, like harassment or further escalation.
"I'm watching you" implied she wanted us to leave, right?
Yes, "I'm watching you" could be interpreted as implying she wanted you to leave, especially since you were on private property. Property owners or employees have the right to monitor their property and ask people to leave. It seems like moving to the sidewalk was the right response to avoid any issues. Let me know if there’s more to clarify!
