Polish Police Are Searching For Farting Dissident

Needed a laught before i went to sleep....
Warsaw, Poland (AHN) - A 45-year-old Polish man is now the subject of a nationwide manhunt by the Polish police after he was charged for farting loudly in response to his sentiment about the president.

Hubert Hoffman was earlier arrested by the police in a routine check at a railway station in the Polish capital of Warsaw.

He complained to the arresting officers that President Lech Kaczynski and his twin brother Jaroslaw, was responsible for turning Poland back to a Communist style dictatorship. He was reprimanded to show more respect for the country's rulers.

Hoffman replied with a loud fart and was immediately arrested. He was charged for "contempt for the office of the head of state."

He was later released on bail but failed to show up at a Warsaw court early this week to stand trial and the judge on case rejected an appeal by his lawyers to drop the charges.

A court spokesman said, "Such a case of disrespect is taken very seriously."

Surprisingly, the court ordered the police to start a nationwide hunt for the man, and Interpol has been alerted.

Hilarious, but WTF kind of law is that?

Sort of like the one we have in the US that says the President can lock you up forever based on absolutely no evidence.

One you get when you allow the govt to control free speech via feel good pc laws.

Nah, goes way beyond "PC". I wonder if it's a holdover from the Warsaw Pact days or newer.
 
An ancient oriental philosopher once imparted this wisdom:

I am sure we are heading that way. Not only can you not speak to the VP or President in a dissenting manner now (unless you are miles away), but soon you won't even be able to offend them without speaking. Of course, I am sure the USSS is going to create some type of regulation against polluting the President's air with flatulence and the Repuglican controlled congress will pass a law, which will be upheld by the fascist USSC.

It's only a matter of time people, soon you won't be able to even criticize the color of the President's tie.

Great. More grounds to impeach the Flatulator In Chief! :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:

From Slate Magazine:
Bob Woodward reports in his new book, State of Denial, that President Bush loves to swap fart jokes with Karl Rove. Before a morning senior staff meeting in 2005, Woodward reports, Bush schemed to have Rove sit in a chair that triggered some sort of high-tech whoopee cushion activated by remote control. The prank was postponed in deference to news of the al-Qaida bombings in London. When the gag was carried out two weeks later, the room erupted in riotous laughter while Rove hunted down the culprit.
 
Several countries in Europe have laws regarding the peasants and remarks to the supposed superior bloodline of the royalty caste.
 
Surprisingly, the court ordered the police to start a nationwide hunt for the man, and Interpol has been alerted.

If they don't nose where he is how can they claim an offense?
