If I understand correctly, it is *public* breastfeeding that
is to be criminalized by whatever statute/ordinance we are
talking about (missed the 1st post).  Saying that is should
not be criminalized because it is "so essentially natural"
is not much of an argument.  I can think of several essentially
natural bodily functions that one cannot do in public and
very few people complain.
