    The whole thing must have been faked. This kind of thing just doesn't happen in America.

    BTW, she was charged with "resisting arrest." And as you pointed out earlier, she clearly was not resisting.

    Thank goodness for British online newspapers, or I wouldn't have known anything about this.
    Knotted, why are you being so snotty? Of course things like this DO happen in the US -- I never said otherwise. What, you think I've never seen a protester arrested? Or for that matter, been a protester myself?

    I raised the possibility of staging because videos ARE sometimes staged. It's good that you followed up; I was out riding, so didn't, but I'm glad you did. Thanks for that.

    Because I'm a boor and a sh*thead and foully angry at how that woman was treated.

    Sorry.

    'sokay; that was not like you at all. And yeah, she was treated badly. I doubt the charge will stick; good thing she reacted the way she did rather than the way I would have (which would have involved pain for one or more).

    And you are not the names you called yourself. Sheeeesh!!!!!
