Scotland: No Jail Porn!

It's too bad Scotland doesn't have laws against cruel and unusual punishment (I think we've all seen Midnight Express enough times), because now they are planning on outlawing nude posters on jail cell walls. The proposed law doesn't just stop as nudity; it outlaws anything that could be offensive to another person...which is pretty much anything, unless their intention is to only allow "Hang In There!" kitty or Jonas Brothers posters. Although, this might just be my overly-offendable American mind at work - the article says that Page 3 girls are perfectly fine, which are considered totally offensive by the modern and progressive U.S.. If the USA Today started including mostly-nude women in their pages, maybe then the U.S. will finally grow into a first-world country like Scotland.
