Some of these corporate property rights absolutists admit openly that companies could ban Bibles kept in locked trunks of employees cars on their parking lots. Or Korans, or Playboys, or National Reviews.

The danger here is that in the future, society could evolve to more and more privatization, to the point that very little outside of your front door would not be some corporation or another's "private property." We have in the past seen entire "company towns" and may again in the future.

I don't want a tyranny to be able to use the dodge that your weapons, Bibles etc are banned from "private property," when most of the country becomes "private property."

I'm trying to get these guys to see that Rights are a Two-way street. In order to fully exercise YOUR rights, you have to fully respect ANOTHERS Equal Rights. Otherwise, you are setting yourself up as little more than master and slave.

This is no fit way for a free society of inividuals to interact with each other.

Their property. My property. And never should one have control over the other.

1st...I do not think it will ever come to that. 2nd, there are plenty of people who, like myself, will not make such rules.

But we cannot enforce our rules on the others either, or we become what we fear.

I trust that society will retain its moral compass to enough degree to prevent what you have spoken of Travis. If not, then we have lost it anyway and will be fighting to restore it.

We just cannot do it by trying to dictate to, or compell a property owner as to what rules must exist on their property. That's a power I am not willing to grant anyone...individual or government. we ahve already come dangerously close to granting government that pwoer...and it leads to fascism.
