Well I can't walk down a public sidewalk nude without being hauled off to jail. Why is that? What is the public harm being done?
Meanwhile smokers can walk down a public sidewalk smoking.
"Harm" is not the issue. The issue is community standards, what are they and who gets to set them. That is what we're talking about here.
