I claim no special legal authority myself, Jim. I'm just an interested and increasingly concerned observer of what's happening in societies that are supposed to be liberal democracies. That said, what I'm pointing out here is the contradiction between laws that criminalise conduct that might be considered to breach a vague standard of offensiveness, and the provisions of the Human Rights Act, which do not empower EU states to restrict freedom of expression on the basis of offensiveness. Since all domestic laws must be Human Rights-compliant, Article 10 of the Act supercedes the charge of outraging public decency and any use of the latter is not lawful. There was another recent example in France of someone who had been fined for insulting the president, under a law some 150 years old that had never been repealed. The insulter appealed, invoking his Article 10 rights and won, prompting the deletion of the law from France's statute books.

I get where you're coming from and yes someone innocently taking photos could be wrongly accused but in this case the man is behaving oddly. Same for this man who was caught exposing himself to woman and capturing their reactions. www.birminghammail.co.uk/news/local-news...osed-himself-5786311 He probably deserved the thumping he got but it was still an invented crime that could be used against anyone with a camera on their phone. I hear a lot of women (and quite a few men) have been congregating at Jamboree Stone, near Streetly Gate for a repeat performance.

Admiring youth has now become a perversion. This law isn't on the books in NSW and about 5 years ago an 86 year old retired barrister was arrested taking snaps of schoolboys. He defended himself and won..told the court "I admire youth but have no interest in sleeping with them and there isn't a frigging thing you can do about it so butt out of my life. You are the perverts with your fevered imaginations "...won and got costs.
