An America that hides its art in order to not offend Osama bin Laden isn't one I'll have a part of.Me either. Its not hidden. Its just not used as a backdrop when cameras are rolling.

You confirm my suspicions. You think we should alter our behavior as a society in order to appease our enemies.

The library is not a safe place to send your kids unsupervised. The right way to change the Library would be to stand on the streets of your town, explain the problem to anyone who will listen while runnning for Library Trustee yourself. Right or wrong, if enough people agree with you you'll win.

The topic of personal freedom and when and how it starts to disintegrate civilization is discussed in Robert Bork's "Slouching Towards Gomorrah", which I have read twice and need to read again. He's got another book out about judicial tyranny (more or less) which I haven't read but want to. If neither of you have read "S.T. Gomorrah" I suggest you do, you would like it.
He discusses libertarianism, where it comes from, and where it would take us.
