No constitutional protection for Hoosier’s hooters
22nd September 2010
A court has ruled that women’s nipples do not enjoy freedom of expression under the US Constitution.
The case was brought by a 16 year old girl, who was one of three women accused of exposing their breasts to passing traffic on an Indianapolis street last year.
According to the Indiana Star, Judge Cale Bradford wrote, “In the end, (the girl) would have us declare by judicial fiat that the public display of fully-uncovered female breasts is no different than the public display of male breasts, when the citizens of Indiana, speaking through their elected representatives, say otherwise. This we will not do.”

So the court rules that the will of the people applies to women’s breasts*, but NOT to abortion, immigration, religion, or special treatment of minorities?
Bad court! Bad! Bad!
*I would like to point out that they didn’t ask me for my opinion.
