Streaker suspended

[snopes]

A 19-year-old University of Colorado student who was arrested after running nude during the half-time show at the CU-Colorado State University game said he learned that he's been suspended from school for the spring semester.

I live in Boulder, but hadn't seen this story yet. I was all set to write a jokey bit about "I wonder if this guy is at it again?" with a link to the Boulder High streaker from a couple of years ago. Then I read the article:

But, according to CU police, Mason Lacy won't face indecent exposure charges like he did two years ago when he streaked at a Boulder High-Fairview game. Instead, Lacy is charged with resisting arrest and trespassing, which are municipal violations.

Yes, he's an idiot, and should have learned his lesson. But I think it's ridiculous that streakers like this, or the naked pumpkin-runners, are charged as sex offenders. Streaking and naked pumpkin running have nothing to do with sex crimes. Will the US ever move beyond this freaking puritan view of the human body as something nasty and offensive? This almost pisses me off enough to take part in the pumpkin run this year!
