This Just In: PETA Activist Arrested

Written by PETA

Posted 06-18-2010

One of our top activists has just been arrested for participating in an anti-circus demonstration in Dallas. Her crime? You tell us, Dallas P.D.! No one will even tell us why she was arrested! Watch the action for yourself:

Thanks to Animal Connection of Texas for capturing this on video, and hang in there, Meggan! We'll update you as soon as we know more.

This is the biggest crock of bologna I've ever seen. There was no violence. Dallas police needs to be sued for unlawful arrest false imprisonment and fro being just plain moronic. It's called Animal Abuse Dallas Pd Arrest ringling bros!

A topless man wouldn't have been arrested... well actually maybe he would be for loitering but not charged with nudity even if he had breasts it's a completely sexistunjust law she shouldn't be charged with anything anyway assuming the banner had a good message.

Hmmm.... I wonder........ Well she is partially naked in public. I know I wouldn't want my kids to see a naked woman in public.

Another step backwards for mankind. Is this "serve and protect"? By the looks of how out of shape those cops are the average animal intake in Dallas may be a bit higher than here in RI. I'm sure they don't want PETA influencing people to stop torturing the animals. Nice work DPD I'm sure everyone feels safer.

that is outrageous but not surprising. you would think that the "police" would have something better to do. proof positive that we live in a corrupt consumeristdrone corporatocracy where real rules and commonsense doesn't really apply... a conformist dissillusioned greeddriven uncreative society where the green god rules. a working class hero is something to be.
