So why does it seem, to me, that these nursing mothers feel they have a right to change facebook's policies? This isn't a public venue where the debate is an interesting one. This is facebook's business policies -- so isn't it over-stepping the bounds to insist on such a change? Are these nursing mothers even share-holders?

They don't have a right to change facebook's policies, but they do have a right to protest those policies in an effort to get them to change their policies. Facebook can can choose to ignore these protests at the risk of losing a chunk of business (nursing moms and those who support them enough to delete their account). Or they can change their TOS and risk losing another chunk of business (people offended by nursing moms).

My opinion is that facebook should loosen up, but they've drawn their line in the sand.

Now, the question is if public or consumer pressure will cause Facebook to change their policy.
