Crazy Story

about the "naked rambler" Stephen Gough.
I never heard of this guy till now.
he walked the length of Great Britain naked. But when he tried to walk it again he was arrested. Already having a string of charges for breach of the peace and offences related to public nudity.He served 10 years mostly in segregation for refusing to wear clothes. All at great to the tax payer I'm sure. He does all this as he believes it is an act of liberation and freedom.

If you agree or disagree with him. Stephen Gough's name will go down in history. He seems to me deserving of respect for simply standing by his integrity.

He has my respect and admiration. Simply for being himselfand doing all he has done to this day.

Here's to you Stephen Gough.

Now non! now non -now non - The more you say that, the funnier it sounds! Anyway, I was about to say, it is true that we are far more mature than men, however, there is a time and a place for everything - and this is the time to be a bit mad!!!

I don't have a problem with him marching around on country lanes, especially the ones I drive along to get to work. He gets off on the attention, though, which makes it boring.

Candy, I can assure you there would be very little dangling. With the weather in the UK, by the time he got to Scotland, the poor thing would have climbed back up inside him looking for warmth!

have just looked a youtube and they are saying this Stephen has for the past four years been looked up so many times, The also say they think he must have a mental evaluation, He on the other hand says he has not seen his kids for years, He is from Hampshire in Scotland and they say he should be locked up for life

P.A.C Why have you got experience to the fact that it happens,obviously you must have been standing at the finishing line because no matter how cold remember he is running and the blood is pumping,so I don't think the extremity shrunk or did you tell him to bend down to have a check

@ Non -

... Instead of arresting him they could just pick him up and drop him off at the end of each town.... that would give the lazy, dough-nut eating

something to do for a change, it's called service to the community, their job description.....

non
Very interesting story...I can see why parents are nervous regarding their children...but he does seem harmless...it puzzles me why he would choose jail over his kids...

zman
Too funny...I would think he would need to comply with health standards (hair net)...lol...or get a Brazilian...
