america should be names ( amerika ) the communist way to spell amerika ... the usa is turning into a nasty Degrading Police Country and americans should stand up and tell police to fuck off.................

I personally think that speedos only look good on professional swimmers but if you feel that you look good in one and want to wear it, that is your choice..

PS-Thanks for the good laugh at the beach!!!

This article was so clearly written by a man. It's ok for any of the women to wear what looks like underwear, but it's not ok for the men?

Double standards don't work here, pal.

Sounds like the Sheriff is a homosexual, or has fear of being one.

Were there any tickets written by the sheriff's deputy for any of the "over the line" scantily clad females in thong bikinis busting out all over the place? Probably not and my money says this deputy is a male. If I were this speedo enthusiast, I would cry discrimination.

that guy wore a speedo and had a comb-over he should be in prison for life good LORD get his kind off the street and beaches LOL

Women have "junk in their trunk" & men have "extra cubic inches under their hood".

The man thing in America is a show of a guy's manhood. It's almost an unwritten law that 'no man will show another man off'. Yeah, it's threatening to some but no way indecent when compared to what women wear on the beach. Guys doing the speedo thing is also considered a "little gay" or too "Euro" here in the states.

Don't worry ladies, with the upcoming liberal swing taking place you'll be able to see all the manhood goodies you like in a generation or so. We're almost there already, give it another fifteen yrs & 'anything goes' will be a way of life... Muscle cars & extra horsepower on every beach.....

I live down here and actually he had them rolled down, basically exposing himself. So yes, it was/is indecent!

I go to Haulover Beach in North Miami.........which has an area dedicated (and totally legal) for nudity. I don't like SPEEDO's , and obviously do not wear them.......but I think Police are quite stupid for arresting someone "dressed" like this man was.

Why are Americans sooo prudish? Maybe America should cover up the whole body so no eyes can see the human body. Or maybe you can blind yourself lest you see the human form.

AMERICA
is turning in to a Police country. Nobody speaks up anymore or rebells,
I will braodcast all of this in Europe to let them know,
stay away visiting the USA you take your life in your hands and wind up in prison.
Excample?
todays NY times : an italian tourist, 25 years old ,visiting his american girlfriend locked up in DC for 15 days already over communication problems. I will spread the word and let's see if the pocketbook hurts the USA and they finaly wake up. A pathetic , looking the other way ,
country, that nobody should visit anymore.

I will do my job broadcasting all of this on the European networks.
Let's see if the Europeans toursit stop coming and we hit you in the wallet and may make you wake up from beeing a police country.
Another excample: todays NY times article
Italian tourist held in prison in DC for NOTHING, while visiting his american girlfriend.
watch me going into action to keep the tourist away NOW.

As a resident of Florida since 1974, we pretty much use the beaches down here 12 months a year. Over those months and many years I have seen just about any type of beachwear fashion you can imagine. Although the majority of men who do wear Speedos should not be doing so, this leads me to believe that the Police Officer was a man. I will bet you that he has no problems with women wearing a piece of floss between their butt cheeks (which they are always digging out of their arse hole) with a little patch up front and the same patches covering their breasts.
Although I feel Speedos should best be left to the Olympic and professional swimmers (preferably at the Swimming Hall of Fame Pool in Fort Lauderdale not far from me), the fact is if women are allowed to let their butt cheeks be exposed, then why should he be treated any differently????
This comes down to discrimmination on the part of the Police Officer and I would really like to know what his citation record is in handing out tickets to women with nothing more than a shoelace up their butt crack?
Coming from a family of 4 Generations in Law Enforcement, we all had a good laugh over this one. Would have loved to been a fly on the wall and seen the expression on the Judges face when he read the charge(s) before DISMISSING the case.

the cop, or sheriff was a guy with a hang up on his self image if it were a female he would be trying to pick her up and not giving her a ticket . Straight men are real idiots, like this cop. he probably has a small penis too!
