Author Topic: "He said that I should cut off her breasts" Michael Brown Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1522 From: Bradford, England Registered: May 2001 posted 02-26-2003 04:53 AM                     click here... ---------------------------------------------------------------- Police field complaint about busty snow woman ENT, Ohio - Crystal Lynn went for realism when she built her snow woman - celery for the eyes, a carrot for the nose and two blobs of snow for the breasts. The last turned out to be a no-no, as someone complained to Kent police about what he called an indecent snow figure. And a police officer showed up at her apartment door minutes after she completed her work. "He said that I should cut off her breasts, but I said no woman wants that," Lynn, 35, said. She didn't want to knock down the snow woman. And the figure was too busty to be covered by a shirt. So Lynn opted to drape a ruffled maroon tablecloth around her shoulders. "She looked really good, like she was getting ready to go to a party," she said. Kent Capt. James Goodlet said the incident began at 7:30 p.m. Wednesday with an anonymous call from a man about the "inappropriate snow figure" on First Avenue. Goodlet said the officer didn't demand that Lynn alter her artwork, but she left the conversation thinking she would be arrested for disorderly conduct if she didn't comply. "We would have had to have someone file a complaint," Goodlet said. "We wouldn't have charged at that. We were treating it almost as a neighborhood domestic situation." He said the dispatcher considered the call to be serious - not a prank call. But Lynn was flabbergasted. "I didn't think there was anything inappropriate about it," said the self-described housewife. "I just wanted to play in the snow." She said she called the police after the officer left. When she realized the officer was just passing on a caller's complaint, she took matters into her own hands, stripping the tablecloth off the snow woman so that she could be exposed in all her glory. Goodlet said this may be the first time he's fielded a complaint about an indecent snow figure in his 26 years of police work. "They aren't one of our higher priorities," he said. Lynn said she was insulted by the whole mess. "It's just snow," she said.  |  IP: Logged Greg Mueller Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1687 From: Port Gamble, WA Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-26-2003 09:39 AM                        Sounds like there must be some really bored people in Ohio if that's the biggest thing they have to worry about. How realistic could it have been? Next I guess we'll have a league against snow pornography. Maybe someone should make a male snowman.

Then they will try to get public tax dollars so that the "artist" can make more of them. Because the ACLU will protect any kind of free speech as long as it isn't religious speech.  |  IP: Logged Joe Redifer You need a beating today Posts: 12859 From: Denver, Colorado Registered: May 99 posted 02-26-2003 08:16 PM                        Snow art kicks ass.
