One of progressivism's finer moments:
A man who openly masturbated on a Stockholm beach has been acquitted of sexual assault in court after it was ruled he was not targeting a specific person, with the prosecutor saying it's "okay" to play with yourself in public
The incident occurred on June 6th at the Drevviken beach when the man removed his shorts and began masturbating close to the water. He was subsequently charged with sexual assault.
The Södertörn District Court has now acquitted the 65-year old in a judgement which stated that it "may be proven that the man exposed himself and masturbated on this occasion".
However, the court added that no offence had been committed as the masturbating man was not pleasuring himself towards a specific person.
Public prosecutor Olof Vrethammar told the Mitti newspaper that he wasn't planning to appeal the ruling.
"For this to be a criminal offence it's required that the sexual molestation was directed towards one or more people. I think the court's judgement is reasonable," he said.
When asked if it was now acceptable to masturbate in public if you don't direct it towards a specific individual the prosecutor said it was "okay."
"The district court has made a judgement on this case. With that we can conclude that it is okay to masturbate on the beach. The act may be considered to be disorderly conduct."

Disorderly conduct? The penumbra from the emanations of the Fascist era still casts its shadow.

I could go along with this.
Think "I'll have what she's having!" :laugh:

One of the last "acts" anyone should be exposed to is to see is someone masturbating in public. It is visual pollution and is obscene and should be treated as a crime. The judge has lost all sense of common sense and traditional values.

That's disgusting. Would anyone want his child to see this sort of thing?

None of us would, yet the left needs to do this it is all part of the dumbing down of society IMO.

I reckon a lot of these perverts will get the hell knocked out of them often. Legal or not, wrong is wrong, and there's going to be some p*ssed off people.
