There wuz skin showin

Giggling at small-town cops having to deal with pictures of nearly nekkid flesh this afternoon.  OMG its obscene!  The store manager didn’t follow our blatently unconstitutional demand to remove the material.  It’s an Abercrombie and Fitch store in a mall – what do you expect?  I take it they don’t have Victoria’s Secret down there. 

[The police spokesman] confirmed that one [of the photos] depicts three shirtless young men from the back, walking through a field. The man in the lead appears to be about to pull up his jeans, which have slipped down enough to reveal his upper buttocks.
The same image is displayed on the Abercrombie Web site.
The other image is of a woman who is topless and whose “breast is displayed with her hand covering just the nipple portion,” Bernstein said. “You could still pretty much see the rest of the breast.”

The full article at the Virginian-Pilot’s site includes the allegedly obscene photo [quite safe for work].  I wonder what they’re going to do now that the local newspaper has posted one of the seized photographs online.  Stop the intertubes.  No more nekkididity in ‘merika.
