But to NAMBLA, they think their beliefs are totally justified, and everyone else is wrong. It's like the Cathloic church vs. the Baptists. I'm going to take a Libertarian stance on this and say that, while NAMBLA does have the right to exist as a group, they don't have the right to adopt a strech of highway somewhere where it might interfere with other's saftey. For example, where is this highway? Is it in a residential area where small children often wait for the bus? That would make their parents VERY uncomfortable I'd imagine- and rightly so. However, if this is like, a road in the middle of BFE where there are no kids around, I don't see why they couldn't adopt it. I totally agree this is a slippery slope- how much free speech is too much?

so then you're basically saying that "back of the bus" is fine, because it's a judgement call. Then who's judgement and who's decision as to just what's considered the right areas? what happens as the area changes and sprawl encroaches?
