Breasts Not Bombs!!

This is a HI-larious article about a topless protest in San Fransisco.

So many great things in the article, like the cop (whose last name is "T") explaining why it wasn't illegal:

And it doesn't fall into the category of public nuisance, because it lacks an annoying quality, like the guy who was doing naked yoga at Fisherman's Wharf near a children's school bus stop, he said.

And the part about the nearby panhandler:

The nipple display certainly surprised Chuck Pollock, who has been panhandling around Union Square for the last decade. But he got into the spirit, lifting his T-shirt for passers-by to make them laugh and drop a few coins in his cup.

So many vignettes on modern America to be had here - read the whole thing.

Perhaps my favorite part is the explanation from the protester on why exactly they chose a topless protest:

Breasts Not Bombs said they are trying to make people uncomfortable to get their anti-war message across and to also desensitize people to nudity.

Now just stop me if I'm overthinking this. But what if they succeed with the latter before the former? What will they do then?
