Politics in Taiwan have always been rough, but this is downright dirty. A man was sentenced to 5 months in jail for tearing a wig off Taiwan legislator Chiu Yi. The sentence was for depriving Chiu of the "freedom to be pretty."
Yes, you read that right:
The Taipei District Court sentenced Huang Yung-tien, 50, to jail for snatching the toupee off the head of ruling Nationalist Party lawmaker Chiu Yi. Chiu has become a household name for his media-friendly offensives against the political opposition.
"The judge thought Chiu Yi had the freedom to wear what he wanted, and Chiu felt the wig made him look prettier," court spokesman Huang Chin-ming said. "The judge thinks that to remove it intentionally was to take away that right."
If only this ruling could put an end to "dirty" self-promoting tactics in Taiwan politics, I thank the Taipei district court for their decision.
Don't buy wigs that come off at the wrong time.
Morrie's wigs DON't COME OFF!
And remember, Morrie's wigs are tested against hurricane winds.
So forget about money, you can afford a Morrie's Wig. Priced to fit every budget.
