You have not tried to educate me. You have made a statement that is transparently false - that freedom of expression gives one the right to walk around naked in public.

Have you heard of nude beaches? They are called that to distinguish them from all other beaches - where nudity is NOT allowed.

If you believe your own drivel, walk down a public sidewalk in most any town in America nude - then have an adult explain to the cops that you are engaging in freedom of expression.

You will quickly find that you are wrong.

I hate to break it to you, but repeating what is obviously false does NOT constitute logic.

Spencer Tunick is an artist who takes pictures all over America of large groups of naked people outside. He is wide open about his activity and has never been prosecuted nor does he seek permits or permission from authorities. His work is displayed in galleries where you can go see it. Women in NY are not required to wear tops following a court decision two years ago. In Maine two naked women were arrested but the charges were dropped because the Maine statute barred the exposure of "genitals" and they argued successfully that female genitals are internal and not exposed even when naked.

It is legal in many (and an increasing number)of jurisdiction in America to go naked in public. I am not going to waste any more time trying to educate the truly ineducable but I have given you references to follow if you want to.
