COVID-19 Outbreak (Update: More than 2.9M cases and 132,313 deaths in US)

The conversation stemmed from the New Mexico governor mandating masks.

Plenty of states have indecent exposure laws. The forum this site resides in being one of them. Including state laws regarding simply mentioning direct sexual acts. Certain cities even went so far as to ban baggy pants here(link in the previous post).

If you want to make the case that swinging your dick on bourbon is a moral hazard but not refusing to put on a mask during a pandemic that is costing thousands of people their lives a day, feel free.

Like I said, I’m down for the entertainment.


Personally, I'm not sure public nudity laws have much justification, beyond some concerns with spreading germs, and I'm certain that laws telling people they can't wear their pants low and baggy have no justification either. But, I have this general thing about laws not being used to enforce morality.

On the other hand, I do think that laws made for the protection of public health are on pretty solid legal ground.
