There are publications I find patently offensive: The Washington Times, National Review, The American Spectator. There are certainly things in there that I dont want my kids (or any kdis for that matter) exposed to. But I have no right to yell at the person sitting next to me on the plane about it!! Glare at them, sure, but silently.

If I were reading something and a busybody next to me said something, I'd make sure their 14 year old got a lesson on freedom and an open society in the form of a lecture to their busy-body parent....
