Colorado city officials have removed a topless ban from city law that inspired a Free the Nipple lawsuit.

The Coloradoan reported that Fort Collins City Council agreed Tuesday to remove language in the public nudity code that barred women and girls over age 10 from exposing their breasts in public.

City officials say the ban is expected to be removed Sept. 17.

Officials say a district court judge and a federal appeals court have ruled against the policy in the past two years.

      Meanwhile back in reality, recently arrested Democrat major donor Ed Buck [washingtonpost.com] has personally killed more gay black men than the entire KKK combined. Luckily Epstein "killed himself" before he could spill the beans on how many times Bill Clinton visited Lolita Island. Between Epstein, Bill, Weinstein, Buck and Anthony Weiner, does Hillary know a single male that isn't a convicted pervert?

        You know that Trump was closer to Epstein than Bill Clinton was, right? Trump's whole 'We need to investigate this immediately!' shtick was nothing but a distraction. I'd bet that Trump and Clinton are both rapists. They are wretched human beings, in any case.

          You'll need citations for that. How many times did Trump visit pedo island? How many times did Clinton visit? As far as I know, Trump never, but Clinton dozens of times. Seriously, though. Citations needed for your assertion to stand.

    I'm not sure why you're rated so highly insightful. (Rated 4 at the time I read this.) I did not take grandparent's comment to mean that he's turned on by such stuff. He was highlighting the obvious absurdity of the laws and public reactions. And it is absurd. It's not legal for a woman to be topless, but it's legal for a girl to be topless despite the strong legal and public backlash that results every time a parent post nude photograph of their two month old in the bathtub. And you know what's most absurd? How warped our culture is to always be thinking of any kind of nudity -- especially nude children -- in sexual ways. Go watch the the 1978 version of Superman. I'm surprised that movie hasn't been banned. This idea alone should speak volumes about how awful our culture currently is.

    And while we're on the subject: seeking professional help for his kind of stuff will get you shunned and shamed. With all the data collection and data leaks that is occurring, it's almost a guarantee. Find help at your own risk. Once that news is public, it impacts you forever professionally and personally. Your life will never recover.
