Should we have to?

"The challenge, of course, is convincing the Court that social dancing has a value beyond that of individual enjoyment, that it conveys a message of community, of concurrence, of comfort, even if the importance of such messages is lost on those who create and interpret laws."

But the whole point of this country is that we don't have to explain ourselves to anyone and we should be free to do what we like so long as it harms no one.

Let the state bear the burden of proof that dancing is harmful. What the hell was the catalyst for the dancing ban to begin with? Whose idea was it? Can we make that person stand up and explain himself?
