That's because protecting Larry Flint's right to spew filth indiscriminately trumps the rights of everyday citizens — including our right to fulfill our responsibilities as parents — to inculcate in their children a sense of what is right and wrong

Um, no. Larry Flynt has the right to publish porn. I, as a parent, have the responsibility to teach my children my values and help them learn how to conduct their lives.

If Flynt makes it more difficult for me -- which, frankly, I don't think he does -- then that's my problem to deal with in a free society.

At the risk of making Mr. Lewis blush, Flynt.
