A Lousiville, KY judge on Thursday (4/1) upheld a May, 1998 conviction against a 21-year-old woman of harrasment by wearing a Marilyn Manson [ tickets ] t-shirt that displayed a profane phrase from a Manson song. The woman, Venus "Star" Morgan, was fined $250 plus court costs in the initial ruling, according to AP.

The appeal was litigated by an ACLU lawyer who said he plans to appeal again. In the judge's decision, he stated that the harrasment ruling was justified because ''by wearing a t-shirt displaying one particular phrase from a song, she is essentially repeating the same lyric over and over.''

The song lyric, ''I am the god of fuck,'' is a phrase from the Manson song Cake and Sodomy from Manson's 1994 debut album Portrait of an American Family.

In response to the ruling, Morgan told AP, ''I think it means being your own god, being who you want to be, unlike this community who is trying to force God down your throat.''
