Hey Davin. I read about this incident last week in the newspaper. Quite Bizarre! They,meaning the authorities, gave no clues as to why he was nude. Have you heard anything more about since? I'm stumped!

Hey, since when do men need a reason to get naked? We had a recent discussion about the record for the longest trip driving naked. Maybe half or more of the regulars here have driven naked at least once. Getting naked is a reason.

He probably was an ordinary naked guy who panicked when he was busted for driving naked and was going to get in the papers.

Wrong, Bobx23456! He wasn't busted for driving naked. He "was arrested on three counts of attempted first-degree murder of a police officer; two counts each of reckless driving and aggravated flight from an officer; and one count each of resisting arrest and driving while impaired by a drug" because he failed to stop when a trooper was diverting traffic around the scene of an accident. That's how he got his name in the papers!!!

Don't believe me? Read the story @ http://www.kirotv.com/news/13572667/detail.html . You do know how to double left click on a link, right?

Yes, but it seems he panicked when he encountered the police road block whilst driving naked then compounded his problem by trying to evade the police, so being naked at the wheel was what it appears started all of this.

To be perfectly honest, I have never seen the attraction for driving nude, and yes I have tried it many times over the years, either because it was too hot, or because I'd been nude hiking and that's how I was dressed when I got back to the car, but I always dress now, or wear a sarong.

Agree Pete.
It can be a bit of an embarrassment if stopping at a red light and a Greyhound bus pulls up alongside in the next lane!
btw you recently walked right past that tree I am propping up in my profile picture! You might even remember it?

[nakedjohn]

If you are nude and a bus or truck pulls up next to you, you can always throw something on your lap.
If you use one of these shower wraps, these work well, in any case of emergency you can velcro them and you are decent.

When I wash the cars (usually nude), I drive them down the road to dry out the brakes. One day when I did this the gals next door were having a party. So, I laid one of my mechanic's rags I keep in the car for the insides of the glass over my groin area as I drove by the lines of cars in front of the property. A couple gals were out there using their cells or just arriving to go into the house. I just waved.

This last group of gals seemed to mainly have gal-only parties. Think there's only one of the three left for the summer. The other 2 probably have ponied their MBA degrees into near $100k starting salaries.

Oh yes Bushie, I do remember it as it was distinctly different to the million or so other trees in that plantation, I'll pay it a visit next time I'm in Queensland, I may even pop in to see you again too!!

I'm thinking he panicked because he was High on some Drug. He probably didn't even realize he was naked.

I'm thinking I'd take my chances with a ticket for driving nude rather than 3 counts of attempted murder of police officers. But then again ... I'm not on Drugs.

There is a big difference between being "arrested" and being convicted. He obviously wasn't attempting to murder anyone, he was trying to get away after he was stopped by the police and was about to get busted for being naked, or so he thought. The "arrest" charges are obviously lies, so typical of the gun thugs in blue suits. Any time they find an excuse its to bust someone's life, that's what they do.

It was a mistake to attempt to flee after he was busted naked, but panic is hard to fight.

You have obviously made up your mind, Bob, but it seems as though you have issues with the police. I have never been to the US so I can't comment on your police or whether or not they are thuggish or corrupt, but here in the UK, most people tend to be less hostile to the boys in blue and don't immediately jump to the conclusion that any arrest is vindictive and unjustified.

Mind you, 95% of our police are unarmed, apart from pepper spray, and wouldn't know one end of a gun from the other.

In the UK you probably don't have men commonly being beatten to death for "looking suspicious" while trying to buy a soda. Nor shot 47 times in the back for similar reasons.

For an accurate description of the typical blue gun thug gangs in the US, read this web posting. http://www.lewrockwell.com/grigg/grigg-w10.html

The British police do sometimes let themselves down, but they are not generally violent or disrespectful of human rights and. as I said before, they don't usually carry firearms. Of course, the public here mostly don't have access to firearms either, so the police aren't worrying about what people may be packing.

A person who is driving nude is behaving in a very odd way and that is bound to make any police officer uneasy. The person may be nude because he is a nudist - or he may be high on drugs and/or crazy.

Yes, that is the most important part of the story. Yes, yes, he tried to run over police officers, but Egads! He was naked, too!

Bobx:"He obviously wasn't attempting to murder anyone, he was trying to get away after he was stopped by the police and was about to get busted for being naked, or so he thought."

Bobx, reading the story, he hit a cop and tried to run over two more officers. That does count as attempted capital murder, and trying to run down two more is assault on a police officer. These are serious crimes. It does not matter that he was trying to get away. The fact is that a car does count as a deadly weapon.

Most police officers are good and never even have a reason to use their gun. Yes, there are a few bad apples and a few times a good guy does use excessive force during a heightened situation or uses his gun when it is not necessary or shoots the wrong person, but again, that happens so exceedingly rare.

And hey Stu, welcome back.

Yes, reading the story it is obvious that the naked man was trying to do nothing more than to get away and avoid confrontation. The blue gun thugs were chasing him and shooting at him. In deciding who was trying to kill whom I would look to the ones doing the chasing and the ones doing the shooting. The guy being chased and being shot at was not attempting to murder anyone. DUH!

Bobx:"reading the story it is obvious that the naked man was trying to do nothing more than to get away and avoid confrontation."

That is not what the story stated:
Troopers had been diverting traffic because of a car crash early Monday about 15 miles southeast of Baton Rouge, but the driver didn't stop, police said. When a trooper tried to stop the pickup truck, the driver sped up and hit the trooper in the leg, police said.

In other words, the cops were doing their job of diverting traffic. Bryan Batulis Jr. disregarded the officers and drove on through, hitting the cop who was trying to stop him. That is already a felony of assault on a police officer. he then continued, hit and run. The police officers know that this man is a danger to others and has to be taken off the road.

It was during the attempted stop when he tried to run over two more officers that they shot at his tires--not him. They wanted to get him off the road, not dead.

It would be intersting to know what drug Bryan Batulis Jr. was on when he was driving that day.

And people here are also only assuming that the naked Mr. Batulis was on drugs - maybe he's simply as mad as a hatter ??

Third paragraph of the report:
Bryan Batulis Jr., 25, was arrested on three counts of attempted first-degree murder of a police officer; two counts each of reckless driving and aggravated flight from an officer; and one count each of resisting arrest and driving while impaired by a drug .
