Shots Across the Bow

Woo hoo!

Woo hoo! Samizdata has a new blog on streaking which staggers the imagination.

In Maine two women have successfully defended themselves against the charge of public indecency. In seems that these two "streakers" were not breaking the law because no genitals were shown. Having done their research, the arresting officer was asked if he say any genitals. He said "no." Case dismissed, and the state of Maine has wasted oddles of money prosecuting two women for doing something college students have been doing since Rome. This does mean the law is sexist of course, because men's genitals are exposed they may not streak. You would almost think the law in Maine is encouraging women to streak.

I'm having trouble finding something wrong with that.....

It is the job of government to protect its members from the actions of others. It is not the job of the government to protect its members from their own actions. That's the difference between being a citizen and a subject.

Bible Verse of the Day

“[Psalm 18] For the director of music. Of David the servant of the LORD. He sang to the LORD the words of this song when the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said: I love you, LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.”
