'pretty sure'

1. It used to be naked people was no big deal.

Now they toss you in jail and put you on the Sexual Predator list.

2. They do? I hadn't heard of that.

Can you explain?

6. FBI "took over world's biggest child porn website"

Users were able to view thousands of explcit images of kindergarten-age children for two weeks while it was under bureau's control in an unprecedented internet sting operation -- The Telegraph (London)

Don't blame you if you didn't see article. For some reason, it doesn't get much press.

8. That's not just "naked people."

That's child porn. That's not what this thread is about in any way.

For pete's sake!

11. Interesting take on what constitutes discussion on DU.

Do you have guidelines?

[leftynyc]

4. What are you babbling about?

Who is getting arrested for having a nude painting?

[-none]

12. Did I say anything about a painting?

I said people. But then you knew that.

[leftynyc]

14. So your post has ZERO

to do with this story? Got it.

[-none]

15. Where am I?

On DI?
The post had to do with depicting nudity. So yes my post had something to do with the OP.

[leftynyc]

18. Then your post makes even less sense

Who is on a sexual predator list for being nude (and I'm going to assume you mean not in front of children wagging their weenie)? Who is in jail for depicting adult nudity and how has Bob Guccione and Hugh Heffner managed to stay free all these years?

3. Why does the Pope

look like he'd rather be anywhere else?

[MineralMan]

9. The Vatican is full of artworks depicting nude people,

for goodness sake.

[leftynyc]

10. And?

What does that have to do with my question? The Pope doesn't look like he's having a very good time with these people to me. That they went to the trouble of covering up nudes to satisfy religious freaks makes me nauseous.

16. Because he's wearing white after Labor Day.

He knows he screwed up, and is embarrassed by the faux pas.

I'd excuse this wardrobe calamity, only because he's from Argentina, where it is still summer.

[leftynyc]

19. I thought that rule

was only for shoes.

5. Ridiculous...you go to someone's country, you go with the understanding that

their values and culture are different, not the other way around. Ridiculous.

7. Crisco hated the sight of the female breast on a statue.

So he had them covered up. Like the GOP does to women in general.

13. I remember ReTHUG Fundies covering nudity right in America

No difference

17. Rouhani must be Farsi for Asscroft

[leftynyc]

21. I also remember the UNIVERSAL

mocking, disgust and derision aimed at Ashcroft for the same thing.

20. Butt, butt, butt

I tought I cover'd em really I did.
