>video evidence of an arrest of two people during the Boogie on the Bridge
>actions in Glasgow...

>"Two people were arrested on Friday, July 8th in Glasgow some time after
>Boogie On The Bridge... One, a male was a clown. He had dreadlocked hair
>and a big red clown nose, white face paint and was wearing a pair of
>john-lennon-style shades and a khaki fishing jacket pink patches of pink
>fluff sewn onto it. He was effectively arrested for hugging the fairy who
>was being taken in to custody at the time. The fairy, a female, was
>wearing a pink t-shirt with "terrorist?" [that's a question mark] on it.
>She was carrying a pink feather duster. The fairy was arrested with the
>majorly trumped-up charge of "Assaulting An Officer"! His charges are
>"Obstructing Police Business" and "Attempted Rescue Of A Prisoner"...
>These charges are complete bullshit and we can prove it too - but we need
>your help -
>
>Someone filmed the whole arrest scene! About a minute before the arrests,
>someone with a vid camera filmed the clown complaining... If you are the
>filmer and you are reading this now, please come forward with this
>footage! A cop had been stomping on the clown's feet and shoving the clown
>about. The cop was majorly aggressive. The clown wanted this aggression
>filmed for the permanent record... Another cop was pushing and shoving the
>fairy all over the place and purposefully pushing her into people... The
>clown went on camera and reported the abusive behaviour saying something
>like "This cop is a real bully, he is pushing and shoving and stomping on
>my feet. Please film his face and make him famous"... 1 minute later, with
>the camera still rolling, both the clown and the fairy were arrested
>together!!! If we can find the guy who filmed this, we belive both the
>clown and the fairy cases will be dropped pretty quickly... If you didn't
>film this, but witnessed it, please contact g8legalsupport."
