Bad Art...
A sculpture made with the pickled head of a dead foetus attached to a seagull's body has fuelled a furore in Switzerland about the boundaries of art.Gee, do you think? This is disgusting on a whole new level.
I love my country, but when I hear about something like that, and then I read something like this
A man has been convicted of showing video footage of a hostage beheading in Iraq to a woman on his mobile phone.I sorta wish I lived in the UK. Such a prosecution would result in a first amendment challenge here, though it probably should not. I'd sure like to do the same thing to seagull boy.
The District Court in Glasgow heard Subhaan Younis, 23, showed hotel worker Charlotte McClay graphic images of a man having his head sawn off.
Younis, of Baliol Street in the city, was found guilty of committing a breach of the peace by showing explicit video images of the murder.
