SFGate reports that the Berkeley is overhauling its nudity ban Currently nudity in Berkeley is a misdemeanor, which requires a jury trial. The problem (as the town council sees it) is that no prosecutor has been able to get a jury to convict someone, so the council wishes to downgrade the offense to an infraction, which would allow ticketing and conviction with just a judge. Mayor Shirley Dean is claiming that nudity is fine in theaters, but not in front of "unwilling" viewers on the street. Now this is a can of worms... I'm making a list of things which other people display which offend me right now, some of you can expect the stormtroopers to descend on you next time you go into the streets. Sounds to me like the people have already spoken. And wasn't this the reason that the jury system was instituted in the first place?
