Chapter 265 The Constitution protects the right to a bare ass

Fruit lovers, both local and foreign, were very unhappy with this, and the peculiar disobedience of the citizens of the United States came up!

The enforcers were in the same predicament as the British lobstermen who invaded the New World, not that they were facing an elusive attack by the militia, and in fact they were not expected to use force......

These guys began to break into pieces, started a guerrilla war, and began to use their own methods against the government.

Originally, it was just concentrated in a corner of the beach and in a valley of bushes.

Now more than ten miles of beaches and sand dunes can be bare white flowers at any time and place.

Especially during the day, the police mainly rely on visual and telescopic binoculars to monitor the beach to prevent the daring "criminals" from committing crimes in public.

When they found their bare buttocks, they immediately rushed over by transport, but whether it was an ATV or a horse, the movement was not small, and the fruit could have wrapped a bath towel around their bodies when they arrived, so that the police could not do anything.

As for the commonly used photographing and evidence collection, because this case is special, the police do not dare to use it easily.

Otherwise, the "people involved" will throw a counterclaim of "invasion of personal privacy", and the entire Federal National Park Service will not be able to bear it.

Immediately the police began to change their strategy, setting up more lookout stations at the top of the big sand dunes, and the other police officers divided into teams of two, with walkie-talkies to secretly rub and hide in the bushes, once the lookout station found the bare buttocks, immediately notified the nearest law enforcer, who crept close to the "criminal" and captured him in one fell swoop.

The technological advantages of the United States have come into play again, and the police have also specially applied for an ATV with a silent effect, which makes the arrest more efficient.

And the army of fruit bodies has also begun to open up, and the instinct to fight for independence and freedom has begun to awaken.

In fact, these masses have many experienced veterans.

In order to confront the cunning enforcers, many of the nearly forgotten battlefield techniques have emerged on the sands of Cape Cod, learned from the jungles of Indochina or the icy snow of Cao County.

For example, in small clusters, a group of fruit bearers are equipped with binoculars and whistles, and set up warning posts at nearby commanding heights, and blow whistles whenever there is any wind and grass.

The magic is one foot high, the road is one foot high, and soon the police immediately asked for reinforcements, asking for more manpower, vehicles and technical equipment.

So the beach was full of rut marks, and the huge budget finally had a place to go.

As the two sides battled their wits, the police officers became suspicious as time went on, and in their eyes, every well-dressed guy could be a potential fruit offender.

They had every reason to suspect that the latter might have just gotten into his clothes three seconds earlier to avoid being punished by the law.

There was even a policeman with a bad brain who asked a suspicious woman in a long trench coat: "Do you have any clothes in your coat?" Please answer honestly! ”

The hapless man was immediately complained of "inappropriate remarks related to sexual harassment" and "presumption of guilt of innocent citizens."

The former charge looks scary, but it's actually not a big deal, and every police chief knows how to deal with it, but the latter, ahem, is much more sinister, and at first glance it looks like you can go directly to the Federal Circuit to prosecute.

Who put this big hat on the police, a discerning person can see it at a glance.

Rustberg has never been too lazy to engage in this kind of petty tricks, she likes to beat her opponent on the spot in court, the higher the level of the opponent, the better, for ordinary people, she is not interested in dealing with it......

Another week passed, and the court decision had not yet come down.

The confrontation continues to escalate: for a legitimate reason, but it is a bit bizarre.

As we all know, the police have the power to check the identity, and they can ask anyone to show relevant documents to prove their identity.

Especially at critical moments, such as when the person who catches a fruit body wants to issue a ticket, it is necessary to have the complete name information of the other party.

But the middle class of the United States believes in the law, which means that everyone is a potential lawyer, and when the time comes, they will use the law as a shield to cause endless trouble for law enforcers.

So when questioned by the police, they immediately quoted the Miranda Act: "I have the right to remain silent, and everything I say will be presented in court." I have the right to need a lawyer, and if I don't have money then the government should arrange me a free lawyer! ”

Then he did not say a word, and remained nobly silent.

The police have encountered this situation before, but it is very convenient to solve it, and most of them can always find various supporting documents by searching their bodies or cars.

However, at the moment, these guys are slick and slick, and it is obviously impossible to carry their documents with them, and theoretically there may be a driver's license in a certain rift, but the police are afraid to break it open and check it......

That's it.

What's even more of a headache for the enforcers is that isn't there a small beach here that has become the exclusive domain of the......

These guys saw the police coming from a distance, not only did they not run, but took the initiative to strip naked, and rushed towards the police, and the police stepped forward to stop them, and then they were rubbed with all kinds of oil......

One-on-one, or one-on-two, the police can perfectly subdue these guys, but on the opposite side is a group of people, naked......

As soon as the police knocked a person to the ground, the other party immediately lay on the ground and groaned, "Kamuang, forced!" ”

As a result, many police officers have severe PTSD.

In addition, straight men and straight women are not to be outdone......

For example, tonight, Edward had to go to the town police station to bail Steve Williams out.

He lost his wind.

Not because of the fruit, but because of stealing.

Steve was 100% confident of winning the case, so he sneaked into the park at night and stole a sign.

The sign reads "No Fruit Bodies".

"Hey, Ed, don't look at me like that......" Steve explained, "I just wanted to get a sign out and change the tense from the continuous tense to the past tense and give it to Pastor Shore and Director Lawrence Khalid as a gift when the verdict was officially settled......"

"Okay, it's good if you're happy......" Edward was no longer able to complain, and these days the town of Trullo has changed from its quiet elegance to ,...... It became very ...... Boisterous...... This kind of excitement seems to be full of earthy high, but it makes the fruit army happy.

For example, some fruit bearers jump into the sea when they see the police coming, and then the uniformed policemen can only watch from the beach, and the two sides test each other's patience, and then the latter starts to call the speedboat to come and help, but it is very painful to wear a serious uniform in the sun and bask in the sun for fifteen minutes.

Later, someone invented a new method, they jumped into the sea naked, put their swimming trunks on their arms when the speedboat arrived, and then proclaimed to the policemen on the speedboat: "I can't see from my arm down to my buttocks, and I have swimming trunks on my arm, so you can't catch me!" ”

The water in Cape Cod is very clean but not clear, and the police on the speedboat can't do anything about it, so they can't force the other party up to check it on the spot, right? In case the other party "out of the water" after a lion shakes (small) head, the water throws up how disgusting, although it is seawater, but, but ......

There was also a group of hippies, each carrying a plastic tube six feet long and one foot in diameter, with two ends open.

When the speedboat arrived, the guys got into the tubes and told the police that their bodies had been properly wrapped......

The Trullo Grand Carnival was thus opened, and the fruit army had a lot of fun.

And the police complained bitterly, saying that this fxxk is simply the most desperate task ever, and a few guys simply said that they would rather go undercover in the drug cartel than be molested by (both verbal and action...... )

Such a chrysanthemum has an unexpected effect:

Many of the residents who had advocated for a ban on nudity are beginning to realize that the damage done by the enforcers to the beaches and dunes is actually far greater than the damage done to the car.

Edward, on the other hand, made several incitements, and he warned everyone to prevent the pervasive infiltration of public power into democracy and freedom, and that public power was strong enough to destroy everything he wanted to destroy, at the cost that everything would be messed up by public power.

This is a belief that is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people of the United States, and it was instigated by the lawsuit, which immediately aroused everyone's reflection.

Edward was quite proud, "Dude, this level is no worse than Hansen......"

Soon, the Cape Cod, a conservative newspaper that had previously fanatically advocated a ban on nudity, published an editorial.

The title is "The Fruit: Turning the Other Side" - very apt pun.

"Those who strip naked alone, or almost alone, to enjoy the sun and sea wolves are not breaking federal law," the article said. You just have to be kind to them, and you might get a good reward. ”

"In our opinion, it is just a matter of stopping the ATV and jeep patrols in Villefit and Trullo Beach and bringing them with more health-friendly foot patrols. It's not impossible to leave your binoculars at the police station. ”

"After all, judging from the current results, the rutted marks everywhere are the biggest killers of sand dunes and beaches!"

This is a plea for mercy from the police - buddy, it's okay, don't go too far, you're acting in the opposite direction right now!

But!

Public power is like this, in order to obtain permission to enter, he will be humble and respectful, as docile as a sheep, loyal as a hound, once he is officially launched, it will be a situation where it is easy to burn incense to drive out the monk, and it is easy to ask the gods to send the gods.

The park management clearly rejected the request, citing the fact that "the police are human beings, and they also need transportation to protect their own rights and interests." The police also have a demand for safe and healthy work. ”

……

Finally, on the morning of August 1, there was a glimmer of hope that the mess would be resolved.

The verdict was officially announced.

In his ruling, Judge Friedman reviewed the evidence, which did not include the actual enforcement of the ban by the Park Patrol, and came to some of the intriguing conclusions.

In the opening paragraph, Judge Friedman made it clear that "there is no moral issue in this case...... The core of the problem is not the fruit itself, but the question of whether the celestial baths are unsightly."

This is followed by a discussion of the "necessary conditions" that determine the nature of the case, namely, "if the Constitution grants fruit lovers any right to meet on a traditional, semi-isolated communal beach as a naturist bath, what is the scope and boundaries of this right?" ”

This is to concretize an abstract problem, from the original idea to the level of how to operate concretely.

The conclusion seems plausible: "The fruit-body request made by fruit lovers is similar to 'the claim that a student with long hair is protected by the First Amendment.'" ”

He then proceeded to consider Edward's claim for personal liberty and considered this to be the crux of the case:

"While it is not too important which part of the Constitution this substantive right derives from, I rule that such a right does exist!"

It derives from the concept of liberty and is protected by the established procedural provisions of the Fifth Amendment. This freedom is the right of the people to attend private events only as they wish and in their own way! ’”

"The freedom of the individual is not only composed of those which are the most basic and fundamental freedoms, but also includes the freedom to decide and act freely in matters of little significance, without the intervention of the government."

"My conclusion is that, while this requirement is extremely novel, the traditional practice of naturistic sunbathing at Bush Valley Beach should also be given constitutional protection, a certain degree of protection."

It should be said that this is a victory.

The court's decision was extremely favorable to the Fruit Body, at least recognizing that the Fruit Body was constitutionally valid and should be protected.

Edward and Rushberg had done their homework and discovered that there was a blank in the laws of the United States for Fruit Beach, which meant that Judge Friedman's decision could go down in history as the first judge to hold that this bare-ass right should be protected by the Constitution.

In his ruling, he apparently realized that this "may appear to be the greatest extended interpretation of this principle".

In fact, running around the streets with a bare ass is not a problem at all in Edward's opinion, what has the traverser not seen?

However, the current rice country has not yet reached the stage of the demons dancing in his previous life, and it is true that he broke shoes everywhere, but it is also true that a large number of conservative Puritans still hold the mainstream values and public opinion tools of society.

So to be recognized is already a great victory.

But Justice Friedman was not immune, and he tried to balance the scales between the constitutionally protected rights of the fruit and the government's authority to regulate the beach.

In his ruling, he went on to address issues such as overcrowding, parking difficulties and environmental pollution.

These are the issues that the current ban on nudity is intended to address.

As Edward and Rushberg estimated, Judge Friedman considered the problems serious.

He then considered whether these issues could be solved by a means other than a complete ban on nudity.

For example, restricting the climb of sand dunes, setting parking rules, etc.

Once again, Judge Friedman agreed with Edward's assertion:

"The court agreed with the plaintiff that each of the problems arising from the celestial bath could be dealt with individually, or that the problem could be resolved more satisfactorily."

This was also expected by the two of them in advance.

After these words came out, it can be regarded as a kind of forenotice, and later Judge Friedman can very naturally directly veto the ban on the grounds of unconstitutionality.

In any case, he has come to the conclusion that being naked on an isolated beach should be "somehow protected by the Constitution."

He also concluded that each of the external problems associated with the natural baths in the vicinity of the "Great Dune" "could be solved individually by means other than a ban on nudity."
