New Hampshire is a nice state.  But to be honest, I love the amenities & social progressive atmosphere of New York.  There is more in life that what this deprevation model--that exists in NH seems to afford.

some of your present needs may be fulfilled.But in the future you have to sacrifice many things viz.,youth,friends and family etc.you have no other way.Better organize a forum and make your representations.

You should definately talk to an attorney, as the stakes of losing your rights here are too high.  I suggest you check out: http://www.referraljuncture.com .\n\n\nBest of luck.

You have the right to say whatever you want. Just because the communistic ACLU wants to shut you up, screw them. Like the first guy said, get a LAWYER.

I would much rather have control over what happens to me - why let someone else's "perspective" make you do things that probably won't work for *you,* right?\n\nIf I had children, I would make sure I stress maintaining that ability I've provided them: to think for themselves.

There is a price for our freedom and security. I will have to go with freedom. In freedom comes the security and stability our great nation needs. However we need to stand by the decisions that have been made. Children need to feel free and secure. And as parents we need to set that path for our future. Well the only way we can become the greatest nation is for us to pull our heads out of our 4th point of contact and really desire and respect the sanctaty of respect for our leader(s). How can we expect other nations to respect and to fear us when we dont respect our leader? We belittle him and make fun of him. Why? because we know that we can't make the right decision. This world is about damn if you do and damn if you don't. Either way someone isn't happy. As a nation we need to become one and support our freedom. Let those know that we are greatful for their sacrifices.

I had a fabulously annoying meaningless and stupid answer for that one, but here goes a truthful one:\n\nHeritage is more important to me because if my children were to be born elsewhere and eventually raised there, I would like them to have my values and customs regtardless of their nationality.

Do not let these religious fanatics get you down.\nYou're a child of God....nobody gets special rights to this...not even Baptists.\nMove on with your life. Make friends. Love your neighbors. Adopt children. \nWhen it's all said and done, you will have lived a good life and loved many.\nThat's all that matters. The other stuff is just that...stuff born out of fear.\nYou're better than that.

It is our constitutional right to do so.\n\nThe last time that this was tried it brought about the Civil War.  Is this really what you want?

You  have every right to free speech.  Use that right often!\n\nHowever, you don't have a Constitutionally protected right to unrestricted use of Yahoo Answers.  It is their service and they offer it for public use UNDER THEIR TERMS AND CONDITIONS.  They have every right to call the shots in this specific forum.

As a proud American citisen, I 100% support there legal right to do it, if it is on public property. But let me tell you, if it was a family member/friend/anybody I knew, the minute any protestor (be it peace/war/gay/holy-roller) step one hair across my property line without my permission, thier carcas is mine! I belive strongly in free speach, so on public property, as much as I'd like to rip thier damn sighs right out of thier hands, and break it over thier heads, I do not, because I actualy do belive in gay rights (even though I am not gay, I support freedom, unlike some), and most importantly I belive in free speach FOR ALL, no matter how much they pi$$ me off. If they did this at a funeral that I was in attendance, I would use my freedom of speach to chant inflamitory remarks, and mock the protestors. Also, if they approached me, or somone else to where I thought they/me were threatened, I would not hesitate to draw my 45cal in the name of self defense, and make a citisens arrest (I am a strong believer in vigilante justicE). As for cursing in public, I could care less as long as I can curse back at the M****r F*****s (I can proudly hold my own in a cursing match, and have a very loud voice). I hate (scratch that, Royaly Dispise) anybody that has/is/will use a funeral for ANY kind of protest, even if I agree with what they're protesting, but like I said, I hold back my hatred on public property, but the minute they cross onto my property I will shoot to kill (once again, weather I agree, or dissagree with them)...\n\n...and this is coming from a fiscaly conservative, social liberal (independant, pro gay rights, anti IRAQ war, not anti Afghanistan war, anti Bush/Bushite)...\nCan you even begin to imagine how mad/dangerous I would be if I were some right-stealing republican/right-winger/"conservative"/holy-roller/(you get the idea) or If I were a democrat/left-winger/"liberal/baby-killer/(you get the idea).\n\n\nBottom line...\nPeople on both sides get me so pi$$ed off, and either side (the demoncraps or retardicans) will object to (or promote) free speach when it is convienient for them (agrees with them), it is unAmerican, and makes me sick.\n\nI am for these individules legal rights to protest/curse/whatever on private property for any reason, at any time, however to do so at somones funeral (one of our great, fallen american heroes, none the less), is dispicable, and should be looked down on by society with great hatred\n\nBesides isn't it irony that they be so rude to those who who died so that they could be so rude? I'm sure it really helps whatever cause they're protesting (sarcasm).\n\nJust because you CAN, doesn't mean you SHOULD\n\nIt's like burning the American flag on american soil (I support peoples rights to do this as well, even though I find it sickening), isn't it ironic that they burn the flag of a nation, that allows them to burn the flag (irony? ANYBODY), and also the same country of which they are most likely citisens? Try doing that in Iran, with the Iranian flag, SEE WHAT HAPPENS! in the end, that is what makes America great, that we are free to do as we please, no matter how stupid it is, and I say we should have a counter protest (an even louder/more obsene one) against the dirt-bags that would dare to protest at ANYBODY'S funeral for ANY reason.\n\nMay the government of, by, and for itself be torn down, and destroyed... and the government of, by, and for the people rise again!\n\nGod bless the REAL America!

What a brilliant topic!  You coulld write heaps on this.  Three items I'd be prepared to give up? Let's see, I object to too much government interference in my life, but acknowledge the need for a central organising power.  So, perhaps look at what changes have happened, especially since 9/11, to personal freedoms. And what people have seemed to accept, more or less willingly, in order to ensure safety.  It's much easier to list three items you WOULDN"T give up.  I wouldn't give up right to free speech, for example.  It's too important.

The law states that all children should receive an equal share of the inheritence unless stated otherwise in a will or something. It makes no distinction b/w legitimate and so-called 'illegitimate' children. I think this is the right thing as making such a distinction is only another form of discrimination. Why should someone have less rights because they were born out of wedlock? it's hardly their fault.

.  First of all our "forefathers did not "give us our freedoms"  they fought to ensure that we had that with which  we were rightfully   "endowed by our Creator".   Those freedoms that we commonly speak of like the freedom of the press, the freedom to worship, and the rights: to assemble, to free speech, to trial, etc are all part of that single concept of liberty.  I would not give up one of those individual freedoms or rights because to do so would be to diminish liberty...and liberty is our God given right.  So I agree with several of the other answers in that one respect.  However once again we have our president being accused for eroding our freedoms.  I challenge anyone to offer any evidence that an action on the part of the president has violated the bill of rights.   If you want to talk about an erosion of freedoms lets talkabout some of the liberal legislators in both state and federal  government who have made a habit of imposing arbitrary taxes.  Take for example taxes on tobacco products.  Whether you are a smoker or not, the principle should outrage you.  You have a few politicians who want to raise money who say well...".hey..i don't smoke..how about if we add 50 cents onto the cost of a pack of cigarettes...those smokers are in the minority, we can get away with it".  How fair is that?  Seems to me we fought a revolution in this country over less than this.  How about eminent domain?  You don't think that is an erosion of your freedoms.  A city can just decide they are going to buy your property from you and sell it to a developer because they can make more money in taxes from what will be built there.  What ever happened to private property?  I guess that doesn't mean so much to you liberals.  And why?...Because...private property is the first thing to go under communism and the liberal left mentality in this country today is a direct result of the influence of communist/socialist educators.  Talk about rights.  You are more concerned about a persons right to have unprotected sex without consequences than the right of a living innocent baby to survive.  Of course you are so concerned about crime that you don't want law abiding citizens to own firearms...you'd be just as happy if they banned them all, when statistically these gun owners aren't causing the deaths.  Yet your liberal minded judges continue to give repeat offenders light sentences or grant probation so that young kids can continue to be raped and murdered by these animals.  Yeah, I'd say we have an erosion of our freedoms due to an unresponsive government that does not act in many cases in the best interest of the American people but rather for their own personal agendas.  In my opinion that agenda by and large is the perpetuation of themselves and their positions ala Ted Kennedy.  George Bush was the right man to be in office at this time and he is certainly no enemy of freedom.\n    I guess I kind of got off the topic a bit but the bottom line is I couldn't choose one individual right or freedom over another.  To do so would be like asking me to choose a part of my body to cut off.  They are all important to me.  They are all part of the whole that are liberty and I would give up my life to defend any one or all.

Work to change the law like California. Put the shoe on the other foot for a moment. If you made a mistake,error in judgment,got caught,served your time,got released and no one gave you the opportunity to build a better life,where does that leave you? I believe that they shouldn't be near schools and such yet they do have to live somewhere.Putting them all in the same area is not wise.Children live all over except for senior  only communities.What do you do that respects the rights of all?

We have all the rights we refuse to abandon.  "Rights" must be preserved, honored and exercised in order to maintain them.  Eternal vigilance.  \n\nNOBODY can take away your right to freedom of speech unless you give up that right.  You may face conflict, but isn't that what Jesus told us would happen?  "Blessed are those who are hated for my name's sake."\n\n\nStand strong, put on the armor of God, and never give up your rights.
