Thanks ... I hope the Supremes were simply being Devil's advocates...

they do that sometimes with their questions. I can't see any plausible way that the Jehovas' rights trump the rights of seniors to security and peace and quiet in their own homes. I thought that towns routinely require permits for door-to-door solicitations (e.g., magazines) which is what the Witnesses are doing. However, even if they require a permit, what good does that do if the Jehovas get one? I would favor a ban on the whole business, period. The same argument as the shouting "Fire!" one.

Your reading tastes are quite eclectic!
