| Message | We would like to note that, as it stands now, a nudist colony could open up in the middle of a very conservative neighborhood. We would at least like to cede this power to local governments, rather than have the national government take an active role in it. |

| Message | We would like to note that, as it stands now, a -religious zealots- colony could open up in the middle of a very -atheist- neighborhood. We live in society and we must make some utilitarian choices to provide liberty to all. There is no more reason to ban nudity than to ban offensive T-Shirts. |

| Message | Would nudist colonies really be necessary in a free and open society that allows nudity every where? |
