Where I live there's no ban on public nudity. The law forbids actions that are "sexually offensive and otherwise indecent behaviour".
That means you can walk the streets naked, sunbathe in a park og the beach naked or with no top on etc. No one has gotten arrested or sentenced in our courts for being naked in public and minding their own business.
Right. But we're not talking about where you are from. We're talking about where this bill is ongoing. Which is Denmark. What is and isn't allowed elsewhere isn't really relevant now is it?
There are no rules forbinding people to be naked in public in Denmark
Let me be more specific. You are not allowed to be butt naken in the streets of copenhagen. That would be disorderly conduct.
You do not have the freedom to be naked wherever you please.
The argument of "freedom is freedom" is not a good one. Because that doesn't exist anywhere. Your freedom is always limited one way or the other.
Your are.
It is not.
You have.
Freedom is freedom.
If you are confident in you assessment. I implore you to go and try it out for yourself. Please.
You can repeat that phrase as many times are you wish. It doesn't make it true.
You are bound by the laws and responsibilities that come with being a citizen of whatever country you're a citizen of. Some may have more freedom than others. But if you truly believe that your freedom doesn't have any bounds. You are nothing but disillusioned.
Go 1 year without paying your taxes, and you'll see just how much freedom you truly have.
