If this were Pakistan, and that was a statue of muhammed, he would be executed. If a mob didn't kill him first.

Desecration of a venerated object. He's risking two years. Also reported here.

The kid ought to.

He shouldn't go to jail for that.

glatt 09-12-2014 04:45 PM

Desecration is a bullshit legal charge, but I think it's fair to charge him with trespassing, since the owner clearly wouldn't want him there doing that.

And if he damaged it, then it would be fair to charge him with vandalism.

Desecration charge though is dumb. We shouldn't react the way the Sharia law folks would want to. We're better than that.

Gotta be said that is the most awful statue. Jesus ala Disney.

Rhianne 09-12-2014 06:20 PM

It is an awful statue, I was ready to suggest it might be a joke - and Glatt, I've been to Pakistan many times, believe me, I ain't seen too many statues of Mohammed...

Not unlike "Insulting Islam".

A Saudi court on Monday upheld a 10-year jail sentence and 1,000 lashes against Raef Badawi, founder of a liberal human rights group, for insulting Islam, an activist said.

He had been convicted of “creating a website insulting Islam” and criticising the role of the notorious religious police ….

Because I've been on the road for 18 hours now I'll put this pic of a guy practising his bass guitar at Heathrow airport right here ....

18 hours just to get to Heathrow. Then how many more to get home?

It's like the movie Planes Trains and Automobiles.

Ohhh.....I like that.

he looks a little bit like Philip Seymour Hoffman

By then my counting was all to pot ... Today has been a bit over 10 hours on 3 airplanes and about six hours of hanging about in airports. I got up at 3.30am local time (the equivalent of 10.30pm UK time) yesterday and am calling it quits for today at 8.15pm. I'm not home yet, Mr Limey came to meet me and we're staying in a Premier Inn right by the airport.

More than a little.

But, as a bass player, he's obviously an impostor.

He's not leaning to one side or the other, he doesn't appear to be drooling out of either side of his mouth, and his clothes and hair are way too nice.
