It is the old story of how far does one's right go to infringe of other's rights. . .


In my opinion (and you already know I am a little weird in term of social conscience), it should go back to "first do no harm. . . "  which of the two will be the most hurt if his/her right is somewhat limited by someone else's right?  Whose life will be the most affected?


If a sick child is asleep in a hospital bed, and a person in the next room decides that it is their right to blast their heavy metal rock music, which right (the right for the sick child to sleep, or the right of the person to play his heavy metal music as loud as he/she chooses) should logically prevail?


You probably guess what my answer would be.
