        They want less government in THEIR lives, not OUR lives. That's the key difference.

        Why? Genuinely, why? Public restrooms have stalls. Private stalls.

        It's not private if you, I don't know, crawl under the wall, but it's as private as necessary for the event.

        perhaps you haven't heard some guys in their stalls doing their business when they didn't have a healthy meal.
