"I'm not against short selling at all but I think that a person should be able to designate the shares in their own account as shortable or not-shortable rather than having to take delivery of the shares to prevent them from being shorted."

Except for margin accounts, you have to explicitly agree to make your shares available for shorting. Most folks automatically sign the agreement without even knowing it, but a quick check with your broker would allow you to take your shares out of play. In my opinion, though, that would be unwise for all the reasons stated in many posts here tonight. Shorts are an integral part of the market.
