Politician moves to make vulgar Photoshopping illegal

[Heath]

A state lawmaker in Georgia is so perturbed that someone used Photoshop to put his head on a porn star's body that he now wants any kind of lewd Photoshopping to be banned. "No one has a right to make fun of anyone," he says.

Sometimes people don't appreciate flattery.

They are so engrossed in their own grossly skewed view of the world that their sense of humor flies into the night like a married lover late home for dinner.

How else can one explain the quite bizarre intentions of Georgia state Rep. Earnest Smith?

He clearly sees a vast importance in being Earnest.

He clearly believes that his constituents are so drawn to his Earnestness that anything that deviates it from absolute Earnestness deserves the full metal force of the law.

Which is why he wants to make lewd, coarse, filthy Photoshopping illegal and punishable with a fine of $1,000.

You see, some devious, twisted human being placed His Earnestness's head on the body of a porn star. He did this for public consumption on the blog Georgia Politics Unfiltered. The porn star has a very nice body. He is a porn star, after all. And he is not Ron Jeremy.

The human being behind this affrontery has come forward. His name is Andre Walker. It is unknown if he was moved by the boast on His Earnestness's own Web site that says he is both "accessible" and "audacious."

However, Walker told Fox News: "The first Amendment to the Constitution of the United States protects all forms of speech, not just spoken word."
His Earnestness is undeterred by this almost pornographic argument.

He fulminated to Fox News: "No one has a right to make fun of anyone. It's not a First Amendment right."

If this turns out to be true, Technically Incorrect is operating under some very strange illusions.

Who is he...?

"No one has a right to make fun of anyone," he says.

Yes, we do. He obviously never heard of Hustler Magazine v. Falwell

Pretty sure the supreme court already sided with Larry Flynt on this one. Parody is a bitch.. tough beans.

Sadly there isn't any good pictures of him online therefore I can not photoshop a giant dick for his nose and balls for his chin.

[Mr Pheer]

He's going to be photoshopped more than ever now. I have a feeling someone will put a dick in his mouth, probably before today is over.

He fulminated to Fox News: "No one has a right to make fun of anyone. It's not a First Amendment right."

All this amendment shit in America has a lot to answer for...

lolicon (hentai of child porn) it is already illegal; as well as I think whatever fake child porn images made from copy and paste unrelated pieces of photos, the result is illegal enough even if the fact depicted did not happened.

Someone needs to photoshop his head smaller. That is one big ass head, unless he has downs syndrome

A kid in Holland photoshopped some cops. He was fined 500 euros.
