Firstly, it'd be a shame that a young man was so cloistered that he couldn't cope with someone quietly breastfeeding. I'd consider that a failing on whoever raised him. What on earth would he do if someone threw up? What if, what if, what if?

Well,  everyone throws up at one time or another. Not everyone whips out a tit in a public place. You don't know what his upbringing was. He looked about 18 and like he'd never seen a tit before at all, let alone with a kid attached to it. The point is -- why subject someone with potentially different sensibilities to that at all?

OMFG the shock of it all!

Well what if looking at you is shocking to me, I think you should be kept at home and out of my sight to portect my sensibilities!

Because it's just one more example of a group of people that expect the world to bend around them and their kid. They're no different than the mom who takes and then lets her kid scream in a movie theater. It all starts with breast feeding. If they don't have the decorum to not do that in public, anything is fair game. And when anything to them is fair game, I can't go to the movies or out to eat without dealing with other people's screaming children.

So, let me get this straight. The idea here is that a bird giving suck to her brat is an insult to the magistrate and all right?

Gor! If your Yank judges get upset at that, then they don't want to be handling things around here. And of course the courthouse is crawling with the worst of the worst, I mean every time you cross the law, they tell you to go to the courthouse now don't they? It's like a bleeding reprobates convention there, I mean if you wake up on Sunday and find you've lost one of your mates that your Mum don't approve of, well you know where to find him come Monday morning now don't you?

And I have the RIGHT not to be subjected to it. Not a "privilege" a RIGHT.

Fine Ish, but are you so sure that applies to when you are in court ?

It's also legal to wear a hat.

"My only remark was that DarqueMirror does NOT have the right to not be subjected to a perfectly legal activity. "

That's the crux of it. In a court you have to be there, and that is the basis for all contention eally. If you walked up to a pizza shop and they had a sign saying "no breastfeeding" anf you happened to be breastfeeding at the time, don't go in there.

To me, what changes the whole thing is that in court, you are required to be there. I do not mean by the authority of state or anything, tis applies in all cases. You have the right to state you case in any kind of court. Certain factors can screw that all up, which can result in the hecklersd being cleared, and other things.

Think of it this way, the right to speak out in your own defense means nothing if you don't have the right to quiet.
