And once again for those who simply want to avoid the issue or can't understand
it, no one has proposed banning breast feeding.

The bill in question bans the public demonstration of breast feeding and the
public distribution of printed material depicting breast feeding.  It is
addressing a specific type of activity that is being engaged in by a group
of people who are trying to force their political views on other, including
small children, not at mothers merely trying to feed their children.
