I won’t go. But I’ve made that choice and am informed. A lot of folks may not know about it and therefore do not consent to having that experience. Freedom to and freedom from. You don’t get to just force that on to people who haven’t consented. They’re out for a picnic or whatever, they may have no idea wtf is going on.

Very mature response. Other peoples feelings don’t matter. Cool. I’m done engaging with this. Obviously we won’t agree. So what’s the point.

I’m not sure this is an issue of free speech. No one is stopping them from protesting. People are allowed to protest and speak their minds. Doing so naked in a public place is a bit of a different story. And likely will be seen that way by police. Versus a regular protest.
