Mannequin's Wardrobe Malfunction Draws Complaints



BEATRICE, Neb. – Residents who complained about a nearly naked female store mannequin prompted police to conceal the window display and stirred a debate about obscenity. Police covered the window at Hannah's Treasures for about a day last week after several people in the southeast Nebraska city of 12,500 complained about themannequin with a pair of pants around its ankles and wearing shoes but no other clothing.
City Attorney Tobias Tempelmeyer said Monday he had yet to receive all the police reports on the semi-naked mannequin.
"We're not able at this point to issue a determination whether it's obscene or not," Tempelmeyer said.
The owner of the closed shop later dressed the offending mannequin in a bikini.
Store owner Kevin Kramer's lawyer, Dustin Garrison, didn't immediately respond to a message Monday, but he told the Beatrice Daily Sun that Kramer might sue over the dispute.
"Nothing about a naked mannequin constitutes obscenity," Garrison said to the Beatrice Daily Sun. "I think we've all gone into a department store and seen a naked mannequin at one point in our lives."
Kramer said the shop in Beatrice was closed because he was in the process of moving his business to Lincoln.
Tempelmeyer said the dispute was resolved amicably, and that he was OK with the mannequin wearing a bikini.

Fucking seriously people???? A mannequin is considered obscene?

We have reached a point where shit like this is getting ridiculous. People in Europe cruise around naked all the time and the kids are fine there. Another example of what George Carlin would call "The pussification of America". People are so sensitive and worried about what their kids are gonna see out in the real world but they close their eyes in their house and don't notice when junior is fucking prostitutes on GTA Lynn.

If anything your kid is just gonna go home and think nothing of the mannequin. Whats that worst that can happen? Your 12 year old is gonna put the image in his spank bank and "take his talents to South Beach" when he gets home? Could be worse

Oh and obviously that isn't a picture of the scene in Nebraska. Their mannequins are probably more along the lines of this


And I hope the store owner sues the pants off whoever he can just because and makes that town the next Cleveland.
