    What's the difference? The Arse is for expelling waste and not sexual. Everyone has one.

    Did you just ask what the difference was and then point out some differences?

    No I asked what's the difference between showing your Arse and your tits. both are non sexual parts of the body with other primary functions

    In that case let's complete that line of reasoning: What's the difference betwen showing your arse and your hands?

    This guy got 3minths for mooning a garda because there were Spanish students nearby. There is no reason this lady shouldn't be looking at the same sentence.

    Genuinely confused now that we've closed the loop. Are you suggesting that there's no reason we shouldn't face 3 month jail sentences for exposing our hands?

    If the sentence was imposed in isolation then it would be overturned on appeal. The judge must of taken the previous convictions in consideration.

    He was charged with " engaging in threatening, abusive or insulting words". the lady who was topless was not charged with being threatening or abusive. that is the difference.

    As much as I commend this woman's right to protest to be topless I'm just wondering did Knockanstockan festival actually approve this woman's decision to go topless as they haven't said anything as yet. If this woman plans on going to other events with other members of 'Free the Nipple' wouldn't authorities just withdraw festival licences. This could be detrimental to the very existence of small festivals in Ireland, what next a mass topless parade at Electric Picnic.

    Anyone see the whole big brother drama where the lady showed her breasts to the other. who is in the right there? The Muslim lady had no right to be offended? Or the other lady should have kept her breasts to herself?

    Eh, everyone has the right to be offended. And everyone else has a right to not give a sh*t. If I call someone a minge biscuit they can be as offenses as they like about it, but the Guards aren't going to be knocking on my door over it.

    They do indeed. But it can be telling about the person doing the offending. You support the breast lady shoving her breasts at the other. Fair enough, i find it very rude and lacking basic manners.
