Sadomasochism and Freedom

In American how a person spends his money may be defended as a form of free speech. How one uses his body derided as immoral.
When Alberto Gonzales was US Attorney General BDSM educational sites closed down because kink sites were targeted by federal law enforcement officials.
In Canada Peter Hayes says the Vancouver Police Department denied him as a chauffer’s permit because he enjoys BDSM. And BDSM is a ‘cult.’
In Scotland a MP called for legislation to insure men and women participating in consensual BDSM weren’t arrested as sex criminals.
Do kinky people need legal protection from moral meddlers and district attorney’s looking for publicity?
Or can we count on social progress to eventually leave sadists and masochists safe from unjust arrest and prosecution?
