Has U.K. "Political Correctness" Gone Too Far?
22 year old Sam Gorman did a streak at a MAJOR soccer league game on Feb 12th...... My question is does he deserve to be put on the sex offenders register for two years as a result of this despite the fact that he sexually assaulted /harrassed/molested nobody?.......... because that's what happened to him.

I'm just interested in feedback here guys & gals.....please discuss.

"My question is does he deserve to be put on the sex offenders register for two years as a result of this despite the fact that he sexually assaulted nobody?"
No.
My opinion: no.
Sure, he deserves to have some charges laid against him, but disorderly conduct/public indecency etc. is not a sexual assault.
NO
Call me crazy, but in the twenty-first century, I believe we need to be more comfortable with sex, not less.
Up with shirts! Down with pants!
Nudity != Sex
No he does not...
Nudity and sex are not the same thing at all. Running around in the nude as a joke/protest is NOTHING like sexual abuse.
A stupid thing to do, sure, but in no way sure be linked with being a sex offender
Stupid thing to do? I'll take it from that statement you've not attended the Community Cup in St Kilda, @spoco2. The streaking by men, women and sometimes little hippie kids is part of the day's greatness.

I didn't mean that streaking in general is stupid, just to do so during a major soccer match where you know you're going to get nicked.
But no, haven't been to the community cup. The St Kilda festival, yeah, but not the cup.
My view is the higher the stakes, the more I applaud streaking. International cricket, rugby, top tier soccer - the more eyeballs, the bigger your balls - figuratively speaking, of course.
That's fucking retarded. Unless he ran down the Referee and sodomized him, then absolutely no.
