Acknowledges public nudity is part in San Francisco and appropriate in some circumstances. The legislation also acknowledges its not always appropriate and in the neighborhoods and commercial districts where we have to live and work and live our lives together public nudity can at times can too far. For years public nudity has been part of San Francisco and beaches and parades and some of our bars and the occasional sporadic naked person wondering the streets. It wasnt a big deal and few people caressed. In the last few years its changed. Public nudity is no longer random and sporadic, or occasional part of San Francisco and in the castro its seven days a week. Everyday where people live, play and conduct their lives. To be very clear despite some of the press coverage this is not about cock rings but that maybe the extreme example but its not the heart of the issue and seven days a week and almost always men stand at out displaying their gentles of anyone walking or driving by.

Nice people. Hello i am iian gonzalez. I go to hot springs and events. Naked people do not bother me at all. Theyre like a dressed person. There is no difference. There is only one difference. A dressed person is warmer. I believe nudity should be legal all around the world. Hi. I am annie gonzalez. I go to clothing optional places like hot springs and festivals. Naked people do not bother me, and if god wanted us to go everywhere wearing clothes he should have made it that we were born with clothes on. And i think that nudity should be legal all around the world. And if its a hot day, it should be okay to take off your clothes before the next speaker if i could ask everyone to go by the rules. We dont applaud or cheers and i would appreciate that. Yes im a San Francisco resident and voter. I am george davis. Let me tell you a little story from the pages of history. We all know the story when the nazis came to power and made homo sexuals and others put pink triangles on their clothes a
The other people can file in. You will be able to see everything and would be a smooth transition for everybody. With that mr. Clerk will you call item one. Item one is amending the codes and prohibiting nudity as public streets, sidewalks, parklets, and plazas and on Public Transit vehicles, stations, platform and stops, except as part of permitted parades, fairs, and festivals. Thank you mr. Clerk. Item one is supervisor wieners option. Thank you for coming out today. I think it shows there is a lot of passion on all sides of this issue. Mr. Chairman we have before us legislation restricting public nudity in parts of San Francisco. This legislation which is much more narrow than the broad nudity ban in the park code for decades acknowledges public nudity is part in San Francisco and appropriate in some circumstances. The legislation also acknowledges its not always appropriate and in the neighborhoods and commercial districts where we have to live and work and live our lives together
Police officer is going to make that determination. In addition if we start encouraging to treat border line lewd behavior as indecent exposure that is a automatic misdemeanor conviction if convicted and lifetime sex registry. I dont think we should do that. This legislation would not lead to sex offender registration and unlike the parks code it can be charged as an infraction indefinitely. Now the police and the da will have an option to charge that. Mr. Chairman, as i stated at the beginning i gave this issue time to work itself out. It didnt and the time has come to act. This is a narrow and reasonable piece of legislation and i ask for your support. Now, i do see that sfpd is here. I dont know if they were planning to present as amendments to the police code and the captain from Mission Statement and before that i have a stack of Public Comments cards here. If you are intending to speak during Public Comment and havent filled out this is blue, but there are yellow cards out there
