[Dalewyn]

On the subject of "the freedom of each person stops where that of others begins", what's happened to the Jamestown library is two rights colliding head on:

* The right of the library to freely collect and exhibit whatever information it pleases, a freedom of expression.

* The right of the taxpayers to freely decide how their tax dollars are spent, a freedom of association.

The library absolutely has their right to free expression, but so long as they use public money to operate, that right to free expression ends where the taxpayers' right to free association begins.

In this particular case, both rights were exercised and respected. The library is still free to collect and exhibit as it pleases, but not on the dime of taxpayers; and taxpayers no longer have to pay for a library they are not satisfied with.
