sure he does - he can get off the plane and take Amtrak < /sarcasm >

As a serious reply:
Does such a person have a "right" to insist (that IS what you meant, isn't it?) that *I* not be allowed to exercise my 2ndAm rights while we are both in the checkout line at a supermarket? Yes. Get his whimsy enforced by government mandate? No.

Does such a person have a "right" to insist that *I* not be allowed to exercise my 2ndAm rights while we are both on a bus stuck in traffic on the 285 loop around Atlanta? Yes. Get his whimsy enforced by government mandate? No.

Does such a person have a "right" to insist that *I* not be allowed to exercise my 2ndAm rights while we are both sitting at the counter at a Waffle House? Yes. Get his whimsy enforced by government mandate? No.

That someone has butter for guts is insufficient cause to unleash the government upon my legal exercise of my Constitutional Rights as a citizen of this Republic.

Does this help to clarify the issue for you?

It doesn't really clarify the issue, but it does help in my understanding of you. Thanks.
