San Franciscans may be forced to wear clothes outside of their homes and some nude activists aren't pleased. City lawmakers are scheduled to vote Tuesday on an ordinance that, if passed, would make it illegal for anyone over the age of 5 to expose their genitals in public. Exemptions will be made for parades and festivals held under a city permit, according to the ordinance. A group of activists filed a federal lawsuit against the city on Wednesday, asking that a judge issue a temporary restraining order to stop the vote on Tuesday and provide the court enough time to determine the merits of the case. One of the plaintiffs, Mitch Hightower, has organized an annual "nude-in" demonstration over the past several years.

The logical question is: "Who the hell cares about anything San Francisco does?"
(...or all of California, for that matter)
First of all, why should I care?
Second, well, wow, somebody actually cares about the fat old people walking around with their junk hanging out?
Only in San Francisco does the prospect of an anti-nudity law become news. However, I suspect it won’t pass or will be ignored if it does.
It’s not the nudity itself that’s the problem it’s the new way of saying hello. They ain’t shaking hands.
“Exemptions will be made for parades and festivals held under a city permit, according to the ordinance.”
Words fail me.
..Obama won SF county by 70 pts.—another planet...
The jails would be full, since most politicians are showing their a** every day!
Old Hippies are banned—but sadomasochistic festivals are still allowed.
“Exemptions will be made for parades and festivals held under a city permit, according to the ordinance.
What a joke that place is!
Yes my apologies to Gunny in Full Metal Jacket...
Beam me up Scotty...
old hippies?
I doubt that most old hippies walk around nude.
They are just perverts
Nude pictures of Helen Thomas?...PPPPOOOOOOLLLEEEZZZZ!
No, the perverts are still allowed: gay pride parade and sadomasochistic festival. If the nudists were still hot looking, they wouldn’t be banned. I think they should file an age discrimination lawsuit. /s
Quick, hand me the Lysol.
All nudists are perverts. All of them.
Try to make a nude resort 18+ and they will go nuts, its all about grooming and recruiting and brainwashing the kids
Of oourse, you are right—I was just seeing some humor there. San Francisco is only banning OLD PEOPLE from being nude. if you engage in sodomy, pederasty or other age approved perversion, it’s acceptable.
You and I would ban on moral grounds—Frisco bans on wrinkle and sagging grounds. Different universe.
