Rep. Rayne Brown, North Carolina State Republican, Introduces Bill Criminalizing Nipple Exposure

[Flurry]

Fear for your nipples ladies... Fear for your nipples.

[font=Georgia, Century, Times, serif]North Carolina state representatives have introduced a bill that would clarify state law to specifically prohibit the baring of women's breasts. Women worried about showing too much of their private area should use pasties, or perhaps duct tape.[font=Georgia, Century, Times, serif]

The proposed legislation, House Bill 34, would make it a Class H felony to expose external organs of sex and of excretion, including the nipple, or any portion of the areola, of the human female breast.[font=Georgia, Century, Times, serif]

Rep. Rayne Brown (R), who co-sponsored the bill, said that while it may seem frivolous and even funny, there are communities across this state, there’s local governments across this state, and also local law enforcement for whom this issue is really not a laughing matter, according to WRAL in Raleigh, N.C.[font=Georgia, Century, Times, serif]

Brown said that she was prompted, in part, by Asheville's second annual topless protest and women's rally this past August. Asheville is around 130 miles from Brown's district, the Associated Press writes.

One step forward, 3 fathoms backward.



Maybe he could get with that democrat from Georgia and they could write a bill that turns everybody into illiterate peasants.





... ... ... oh, yeah.

Since when is a female breast a sex organ?



Does House Bill 34 include man boobs too?

I hope so. I'd much rather see female boobs than a male's.

But seriously... c'mon now...

So... where does this leave breastfeeding?

external organs of sex and of excretion, I think they're calling it an organ of excretion.

I hope so. I'd much rather see female boobs than a male's.

Heh

@EE:

The AP reports that, depending on the intent of the exposure, women could face up to six months in prison for an errant areola, with more mundane exposure resulting in a 30-day sentence. There is an exemption for breastfeeding.

Ah, shows how much attention I was paying...



I wonder why the people introducing this don't want to see boobies. They must be hiding something

Maybe because Rep. Rayne Brown's boobs hang to her knees!
