This would be a "right" not granted in any other place. Any limits on freedom of assembly because of the potential to hurt others' feelings negates the point of both the freedom of assembly and the freedom of speech.Someone will always have their feelings hurt. As long as the "protests" are respecting property rights, they must be allowed. Anything else other than protection of this will lead to a curtailment of similar rights in the future.
