Summary
The article discusses the recent U.S. Supreme Court ruling allowing the banning of nude dancing in public spaces, citing concerns regarding its "secondary effects." The author criticizes the decision as being motivated by distaste for such establishments, and argues that it sets a dangerous precedent of allowing censorship based on cultural judgments.
