Bruce Cook, owner of Kactus Point Charolais stud erected the sculpture on his farm on the Murray Valley Highway at Lake Charm near Kerang as “a bit of fun.”

But after someone complained that the sculpture was offensive and obscene Mr Cook received a call from a police officer telling him he had to take it down and that he could be charged with “publishing pornographic images”.

I'm more offended by how it can be considered a sculpture.

Thanks...I still like to post serious news like I just did with Wells Fargo, but everything doesn't have to be serious.

I wonder what people would say if someone put it on a cake for a kid's birthday party?

I guess I just don't have a smutty mind. I had to look at it for about 30 seconds before I "saw" it. (And then I chuckled.)

I *do* have a smutty mind and it still took me about 10 seconds...but then again, I have never seen a bull and a cow mate before.

And then I chuckled. There was an age range where I wouldn't have wanted to explain that "sculpture" to my kids, though.

Yup, I see no issue with this "sculpture."
I bet most people wouldn't have even got it.

But I'd people exercised good judgement in the first place, we wouldn't need government.

pornography: (n) the depiction of erotic behavior (as in pictures or writing) intended to cause sexual excitement

Maybe the police should be visiting the person who thought of sexual excitement when they saw the hay bales and leave the farmer alone on his own damn property.

If it were two bulls, someone would sue if the bakery refused to do it.
