[size=3]近日，一张法国男子用法国国旗擦屁股的照片令法国民众感到愕然和愤怒。[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]照片中，一名男子背对着镜头，裤子堆在脚踝处，一面法国国旗挡在臀部，可以看得出他是在用国旗擦屁股。[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]法国司法部长称这种侮辱国旗的行为是不可接受的，并下令对该行为人诉诸于法律。[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]这张照片最初出现在法国媒体零售商FNAC的摄影比赛上，被评为“政治错误”奖，后被法国免费报纸《地铁报》刊出。[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]在老兵组织的抗议下，这张照片被迅速撤下。法国法律规定，在私人或者文化活动中侮辱国旗的行为不算犯罪。[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]对此，法国司法部长认为，法律应该有权力惩罚这样的行为，既然目前的法律条文中没有这样的规定，那么就应该修改法律。[/size]

[size=3]France's justice minister has called for legal action to be taken against a man who was photographed wiping his bottom with the French flag.[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]Michele Alliot-Marie said it was unacceptable for the tricolor to be insulted in this way, and called for those responsible to be prosecuted.[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]Her response came after the photograph was displayed in a competition run by the media retailer, FNAC.[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]The image won a special mention in the "politically incorrect" category.[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]Taken on the street, the photograph shows a man seen from behind: his trousers are around his ankles and he is apparently wiping his bottom with a French flag.[/size]
[size=3]
[/size]
[size=3]Law-change call[/size]
[size=3]The picture appeared last month in Metro, a free national newspaper, and was hastily withdrawn from the contest in the southern city of Nice after complaints from veterans' groups.[/size]
[size=3]"As soon as we saw that people were shocked by the image, we withdrew it from the list of winners, with the photographer's consent, and we have not exhibited it," said a FNAC spokeswoman.[/size]
[size=3]The government got involved after being alerted by a local MP, says a reporter in Paris.[/size]
[size=3]But under French law, it is only an offence to insult the flag in an event organized by the public authorities - not in a private, cultural event such as this.[/size]
[size=3]Ms Alliot-Marie said the law should be changed.[/size]
[size=3]"Presumably the law has the legal means to punish such an intolerable act against the French flag," said the minister's spokesman.[/size]
[size=3]"If the existing law proves incomplete in this regard, it should be revised."[/size]
