Your Sentiments on Breast Feeding in Public

Not a problem with it personally so long as it's done in good taste.  Most mothers do it under a blanket or throw for their own modesty and privacy, but it's a natural life process.  

I actually heard someone argue about how breastfeeding in public should be illegal just as public urination is.  Apparently this guy got arrested for peeing in an alley as a police car rolled by.  No one else see him just the cop.  He argued with the cop that what he was doing is a natural thing and no one was around to be offended but a mother can nurse her baby on a park bench.  I don't equate the two, but I give him props for trying.

The analogy completely fails because the guy is leaving urine on the ground.  If he took it with him, his analogy would be better, but otherwise, the place can smell of urine for some time afterwards.  Just go down into the subway in New York on a hot summer day, and if you have entered the wrong station, you will get the point very well.  The first time I rode the subway in New York was a very hot summer day, and the stench of urine was so great I almost wished someone would knife me to put me out of my misery, but the subway is not as dangerous as some people seem to believe.

Now, if a woman were squirting her milk on the ground, she, too, should get arrested, as that would probably stink up the place as well.

I dunno... I think it'd still be wrong if he peed in a bucket in public and then took it with him. The difference between the 2, and why they can't be compared, is because there's a difference between eating and peeing/pooping lol. We don't all go to the same building to take dumps together over conversation, now do we?
