Here's the thing, as some have already mentioned, and I know I have on previous posts. One doesn't need a reason to exercise a fundamental right. I've been asked this question in person by several of my friends who are indifferent to the whole discussion. Like I tell them, if one right must be justified to the satisfaction of others, then all rights are bound to be subjected to the same justification. Inalienable rights are beyond contestation, even by the majority. That is the premise on which this country was founded on.

An example I used on a co-worker (I was in her office when the question came up) is, why do you need a religious scripture quote displayed on your desk? She just looked at me for a second, and I asked her if she felt that she should have to justify that to me. She said no....I said I rest my case.
