It is legal to carry a gun. And it is also legal to not bathe. But most people, out of respect for the comfort of others in whose society they choose to live, do in fact get in the shower with a bar of soap every day. They don’t HAVE to. But they’re also adults who have gotten over those dark, teenage “you can’t tell me what to do” feelings and have decided that in order to be accepted, and function well with others, there are certain things you just don’t do. Like abstain from bathing. Or carry a gun and an ammo belt into the library where people are trying to relax and read a book, and where children are supposed to feel safe. Or a host of other things.
