A novel way of protesting!

Give them their due. They definitely got people's attention...

Any volunteers or better ideas ? I was thinking of highlighting Glovbal Warming to the public at large...

_______________________________

Two protesters were arrested after stripping off naked to have sex in front of the alter in the middle of a service at Oslo Cathedral.

Police arrived to seize the pair - members of the F*** for Forests group - after one shocked churchgoer dialed 999.

Other furious parishioners pulled the couple apart and held them until police arrived, and also grabbed a man that had been taking pictures of the act.

A spokesman for the trio - who have not been identified by police - said: "We had to pay a small fine or spend 16 days in jail. We chose the former because we didn't want to spend so long without having sex."

Swedish pressure group F*** For Forests is trying to publicise global deforestation by having sex in public to draw attention to the problem.

It believes in campaigning for the cause by outraging public decency.

We were being honest with how nice Europe is - lovely countryside and different cultures. You should enjoy it.

HGL, reading all this...I fear you might be a bit disappointed about what you will see or, err...experience in europe. On the other hand, if you are interested in culture, architecture, art,good food,and pleasant surroundings with nice people...you will have a wonderful time!

Happy, you're really too much...........!!

Imagine the plight of people (read men) in QL and enormous PMs to b'ful females for coffee invitations and what not... and blunt NOs to not so fortunate….. ….and here, you're invited by them, exclusively, not for coffee but for extended trip with lovely add-ons …..and you’re into ifs & buts?????,

Sure, we the less mortals are envious to you :)

..lol

"when u have finished let me have him"....:)…I don’t know what you two good ladies have in mind for me, slightly scared.

Back to my post which has got you two have a go at me and inundate me with invitations... some understanding issues if I am reading you two right. To put things in perspective…did I say roadside sex is the norm as on today (though per nomerci's invitation post it sounds like it is a reality and is happening as of today... but as I am not privy to it so will not comment)... let me post back the words again “…will become a norm... now I see it taking shape”

When you have finished - let me have him - I will introduce him to the - Cotswolds, Bath, Bristol, Oxford (spit), Cambridge ( big grin), Peak District, Lake District, Dublin, Wicklow, Belfast, The Highlands of Scotland, The Borders, The New Forest – places where it is normal and lovely and not as mad as this European Country.

Yeah Europe is full of these naked idiots who disrespect a church (joking).

Don’t judge the whole of Europe on a few idiots.

Happygolucky, I extend an invitation to you, that when I am back in Europe to come visit me. You can stay at my house, and I will be your personal sightseeing guide.

And I promise, every time there are naked people, people having sex on the street or any other undesirable act visible in your vicinity, I shall completely shield you from it.

And I promise, I will wear clothes too...just for you!

What you say?

aha, Brit, I love your posts, you’re modern-day Columbus, kudos!!! :)

ok on post-

What’s so amazing in it? Having s*x was as natural as having food, some 10,000 yrs back and hopefully it’ll be again 300 yrs later…in between these 10,300 yrs, I’ve to bear with QL’s ever saint ever perfect moral police :)…LOL

By happygolucky• 22 Jun 2011 08:21

Brit... people seen having s*x on the roadside in broad daylight will become a norm... now I see it taking shape.

By happygolucky• 22 Jun 2011 08:17

Can't expect any better...these idiots just need an excuse to get out of their clothes, though this time they took it to a new level. Looks like what I said about a year back is coming true...
