If it comes down to somebody saying they have the right to do so under the First Amendment, then why not advertize strip joints, gun rights, legalizing marijuana or the office of Joe Boringstine? What would you say about having any of this is one of your caches, I guess that's the point and the question posed by the poll. I personally don't feel it's appropriate.
    I misunderstood where you were saying you were finding them. In those cases, kinda like the door knockers (the ones that want to talk religion or politics with you), I think it's inappropriate. I wouldn't, personally, take it upon myself to remove the pamphlet in a cache I found. If I were to find one placed in one of my caches, I would probably remove it as not really pertaining to geocaching and not really something I want in my cache because what and how I believe in isn't necessarily what others may believe and I wouldn't want them to think I was pushing something on them.
