That's far from LBN, but I hadn't seen a thread on this...


Fuck for Forest couple lost in court

Kristiansand country court has sentenced Tommy Hol Ellingsen, 28, and Petra Leona Johansson, 22, to pay the fine of NOK 10,000 (USD 1,570) each for having intercourse on stage during the Quart music festival this summer, reported the Norwegian television channel NRK.

Band has to pay
The couple’s performance lasted for only ten minutes during the Cumshots’ concert, but was enough to shock the world. They claim they wanted generate attention for the rain forest.

Kristopher Schau, front figure of the Cumshots, and one other band member have paid their fines of NOK 10,000 (USD 1,570) each. The remaining band members pleaded not guilty, but the court has sentenced them to pay the same amount for allowing the stunt.

The moral of society at stake
«I can’t honestly understand why you refuse guilt,» said Ingrid Thorsen, public prosecutor and police prosecutor when the case opened Tuesday of last week. «Did you not see that a fuck could overshadow your cause.»


Now I guess the rain forest is a worthy cause, but how come the fungelicals aren't in high dudgeon over this? They already picked up on the euthanized babies in the Netherlands, but this seems right up their proverbial alley...
Just asking...

1. The couple’s performance lasted for only ten minutes...

all business, I presume.

2. They do. They use Norway as an example of what

we could be. I read an article yesterday where Falwell incorrectly claimed that 80% of children in Norway are born to unwed mothers.

3. Still, it's relatively high.

I think it's something like 50%. The marriage rate in Norway is pretty low. Tax-wise, it's to your benefit to not marry there.
