[QUOTE="Schneiderman, post: 54443490, member: 230055"] If you're in a restaurant breast feeding and then are asked to leave you're no longer authorized to be there and can therefore no longer breast feed there. Saying that she's allowed to be there because she is breastfeeding according to this statute would mean that a stranger could come into your home off the street and breast feed her child and you couldn't do anything about it. A restaurant is open to the public but it's still private property, unless it's publicly owned (leased in a public mall for example). This stirs up memories of the Brady Campaign's Starbucks charade where they tried to get Starbucks to ban carrying of handguns in their stores. Starbucks was free to ban handguns in their stores if they wanted. They chose not to, thankfully, but if they did there would be nothing anyone could do about it, it's their store. Similarly, they could ban breastfeeding, and so could anyone else. [/QUOTE]
