You're evading the real issues here. They are: 1. community standards, 2. democratic government, 3. avoidance of pornography.

Property rights advocates always make every other right or privilege secondary to the sacredness of things.

I do apologize for misreading the original post.

I understand fully what the issue is. Their tactics are out of line. As stated in the article they could have gone through the proper channels. To vandalize and encourage the destruction of private property is simply wrong. As you know, in a free society, the laws are there to protect everyone. They are breaking the law by destroying private property and should be punished. Their behavior only discredits them.

It's not about property rights per se. It's about the rule-of-law. Something an American conservative should know. Our Constitution was based on and founded in the principle of protecting every sacred thing through the rule-of-law, not anarchy. (What they base law on in Britain I don't know.)

Rebellion is a last resort and if abortion on demand doesn't meet the standard for it it's a sorry morality that says that posters of nude women do.
