I believe there needs to be lobbying to create a system that you may only phone police or emergency services if you pass a test.
If the first thing everyone does nowadays is phone the police over trivialities, then let us remove the rights these fools have to do so.
Anybody with me?
Ok, I disagree with the fact that he was charged and convicted (being naked in your own home should be a right I would imagine), but that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. People should be allowed to call the police anytime they feel that they are being badly treated.
It's not the woman's fault for calling the police really.. if she thought that he was lewdly displaying himself intentionally for her and her son, I would say that she should call the cops.
However, the police should have the presence of mind to handle it with a basis of common sense. I think a simple "It might be a good idea to close your curtains when you're walking around naked in front of a big window. Other then that, have a good day sir" would have sufficed, but the woman definitely was in her rights to call the police.
