[Platt]
Next, like Arlo, you will be advocating freedom to run around naked in public.
[Platt had said]
Every regulation takes something away from individual liberty.
[Arlo]
Platt hates individual liberty.
[Arlo asks again]
Such as regulations prohibiting gay marriage? [Do these regulations
take something away from individual liberty?]
[Arlo]
For the record, Arlo advocated "freedom". The topic was "toplessness"
(initially), and I pointed out that it is a mindset that makes
women's bodies the property of men that hoist up these laws. Why, for
example, on a hot and sunny day in my local park can any man choose
to take of his shirt, while women are so forbidden? Are women's
bodies dirty? Are you such a sexual pervert that seeing a topless
woman would get your fidelity vows all in a wad? Is the woman so
stupid that she needs big, strong guys like you to pass laws to keep
her from being raped?
That topic degenerated into nudity in any arena, and I said that the
MOQ would indeed support laws regulating nudity regarding (for
example) the spread of disease and germs, or when such nudity would
cause public cleanliness issues. I would see no problem with a woman
or man sunbathing in the nude on a public beach, but I would see
potential biological illnesses and exposures coming from allowing
full nudity in public restaurants or while riding buses. The
underlying issue here is the unhealthy and very immature (if not
property-oriented patriarchism) of the American towards the human body.
All you contributed was a string of distortions and typical "commie"
and whatnot slurs.
But again, so much for you being the "individual liberty" champion.
