21 months in prison for getting his kit off again (only 60 secs after being released from prison for the same thing)

Got to feel a bit sorry for this bloke

He's spent most of the last ten years in prison which is a waste of a life (& that began must chaffe something rotten)

He'll spent more time in jail than the Lockerbie bomber at this rate

He should cover up in populated areas.

I've no problem with anyone camping or bushcrafting in the buff where it's easy enough to leave them to it.

There's a time and place for everything, but stark naked walking along a road with traffic isn't it :rolleyes:

Fine if he lived in a culture where public nudity was commonplace, some of the Indian holymen for instance, but the UK's not really the place to play silly beggars about it.

Can he not take up residence as warden of a nudist beach or campsite ? at least there he'd be useful and independant instead of a guest of HM's prison service.

cheers,
Toddy

your house!
You know thinking about it I agree with your point Toddy, It just isnt our culture to be dangling in public, may be a visa and air ticket to a country where he can be free is an answer

He does it because he wants people to accept that being in the buff is natural. I think hes got issues but he's obviously got the courage of his convictions
I cant decide whether he needs sectioned or applauded
He does it in the winter & even more hardcore braves the midges ,which doesn't even bear (bare :) ) thinking about

I find his attire less offensive than certain items that are worn for religious reasons.

He should be sent somewhere where being naked is normal.

The Paeolithic, for example.

I had an extreemist naturist friend, but he always carried a bag of clothes just in case he offended anyone. (and apologised.)

No trouble with the Police...Because he was willing to conform.

It's not our culture to let semi-naked men pull a chariot along a road via hooks in their backs, but it's allowed to take place every year in my London neighbourhood. Why is a naked penis seen as exceptional?
