Leave nudity laws to locals, New Hampshire tells Supreme Court.

Kia Sinclair stands topless on Hampton Beach in Hampton, N.H. on July 30, 2015. Three New Hampshire women are asking the US Supreme Court to declare that a city ordinance banning women from appearing topless in public violates the Constitution by treating men and women differently. The Supreme Court will likely announce in early October whether it will hear the case.Dec. 7, 2019, 6:48 PM UTC

CONCORD, N.H. — There's no reason for the U.S. Supreme Court to weigh in on New Hampshire's “Free the Nipple” case, the state attorney general said this week. The high court is deciding whether to accept the appeal of three women who were convicted of public nudity at Weirs Beach in Laconia in 2016. Part of a campaign advocating for the rights of women to go topless, Heidi Lilley, Kia Sinclair and Ginger Pierro argue the city's ordinance discriminates on the basis of gender and that the Supreme Court should step in to settle disagreements on the issue that have arisen elsewhere.

If you let people go nude then make a law that says you have to be between 20 and 40 years of age. We have enough pollution hurting our eyes already.

This could take ' open carry ' gun laws to a whole new level

No offense,, but most of the people, I see in Walmart should definitely keep their clothes on

That is like the most normal thing in The Netherlands. I hope it stays that way.

Women should not be discriminated against! Ever!

Sounds like NH is JoeBiden's next campaign stop. Pretty sure this story moved it to the top of his favorite states list. CreepyUncleJoe
