Femen member Amina Tyler on trial in Tunisia [View all] riderinthestorm May 2013 OP

She is braver than I am... maddezmom May 2013 #1

Agreed. Arrested for pepper spray?! Amina was protesting against Tunisia's societal regression riderinthestorm May 2013 #2

actually, it looks like she wrote grafitti on a world heritage site. thus the angry crowd. HiPointDem May 2013 #16

your hate for her shows. cali May 2013 #31

it appears to be indifference. I know that's what I feel. Trying to figure out how in the world bettyellen May 2013 #34

i don't hate her at all. i have no idea why she's doing what she's doing. i do dislike the HiPointDem May 2013 #35

Glad the authorities banned those ultra-conservative Muslims from having a conference there. redqueen May 2013 #3

she got a $182 fine. already determined. HiPointDem May 2013 #27

Thanks. nt redqueen May 2013 #41

Pepper spray? HappyMe May 2013 #5

Yup. Clearly this is a trumped up charge to get her arrested. Sucks. riderinthestorm May 2013 #6

it's unclear what actually happened imo. HiPointDem May 2013 #13

Hope she makes it out safely. Or disapointed it was a slap on the wrist? bettyellen May 2013 #30

Uhm, I wish she hadn't been arrested and tried at all. Period. riderinthestorm May 2013 #46

I just have to point out that Femen was the topic du jour a month ago. Amina was hot. riderinthestorm May 2013 #7

what actually happened here? it's completely unclear from the article. HiPointDem May 2013 #14

Ah, but we have to give allowances to their beautiful culture! backscatter712 May 2013 #8

tunisian women aren't forced to wear anything. and she wrote grafitti on a world heritage site. HiPointDem May 2013 #17

I don't think you'd be charged with carrying an incendiary object for pepper spray. Donald Ian Rankin May 2013 #22

i might be charged with many things worse. a $182 fine was the punishment. HiPointDem May 2013 #23

But... but... LadyHawkAZ May 2013 #9

+1 JVS May 2013 #11

well, it certainly omits some pretty pertinent info. you didn't wonder why an angry crowd HiPointDem May 2013 #19

a 182.00 fine puts her in danger? the punishment for the graffiti would have- and should have - been bettyellen May 2013 #28

I thought I read they were being easy on her for not going after her for desecration of a tomb? bettyellen May 2013 #12

not just your random cemetery/mosque either. HiPointDem May 2013 #18

so it could actually be for the desecration but in order to make the sentence not as harsh JI7 May 2013 #24

Here is the mosque and cemetery where she wrote 'femen,' i guess. HiPointDem May 2013 #15

Her tactics are going to provoke a reaction RainDog May 2013 #20

isolated? she's a media sensation. HiPointDem May 2013 #21

didn't her dad grow up in europe JI7 May 2013 #25

I haven't read that, but I don't know. His name is Sboui. I don't know where the "Tyler" came HiPointDem May 2013 #26

it's super creepy how some Femen supporters seem to be hoping she is persecuted over this! bettyellen May 2013 #29

It's super creepy how Femen detractors are so sanctimonious and pleased about her arrest cali May 2013 #32

as you often say, what a steaming pile of shit. bettyellen May 2013 #33

it's super creepy how femen supporters think writing 'femen' on a world heritage site and a major HiPointDem May 2013 #36

it's so anticlimactic that it almost seems like parody after reading all the persecution fantasies bettyellen May 2013 #37

so persecuted. supposedly in fear of her life from 'islamists,' she traveled to the most important HiPointDem May 2013 #38

It wasn't 'on the mosque'; it was on the top of a low modern wall of a cemetary muriel_volestrangler May 2013 #39

which is the ancient cemetery directly beside the mosque, part of the mosque complex. HiPointDem May 2013 #40

She wrote on wall, that looks damn modern and had graffiti on it before. Never mind it's so idwiyo May 2013 #66

that's probably why there were no charges. Could have been 6 months in jail. bettyellen May 2013 #50

The trial for the graffiti and indecency comes on June 5th muriel_volestrangler May 2013 #51

oh, it seemed really odd to me- thanks for that! bettyellen May 2013 #52

kicking this so more can see the usual suspects ramping up the outrage over an incomplete HiPointDem May 2013 #42

You want to be seen to be that nasty to DUers? muriel_volestrangler May 2013 #43

look at post 6 JI7 May 2013 #45

Not upset - we're getting to see HiPointDem's true nature muriel_volestrangler May 2013 #47

i don't think she is hannah bell, her style seems different JI7 May 2013 #48

Post #6 wasn't a "call out". How do you read that into what I wrote? riderinthestorm May 2013 #53

are you kidding? "concerned" posters on this thread are more interested in slamming their fellow DU bettyellen May 2013 #49

Its the BBC. Not known for misleading (I used their own headline) or incomplete stories. riderinthestorm May 2013 #44

Can you link to a post where this was done. I've read all posts under this thread and dont see any stevenleser May 2013 #54

post #6 is elated her trouble is "serious enough" to rub in others faces here. Shows exactly how bettyellen May 2013 #55

That's how you are interpreting that? Wow. nt stevenleser May 2013 #56

yes, 6 and 7 both go on and on about DUers- they wrote much more about DUers than about Amina- bettyellen May 2013 #57

See my #60 below. nt stevenleser May 2013 #61

"Elated" about her arrest?! WTF? Please point out ANYWHERE in my post I'm "elated" riderinthestorm May 2013 #58

you wrote more about DUers in posts 6 and 7 than you had about her. bettyellen May 2013 #59

Your interpretation of that posters words is ridiculous. nt stevenleser May 2013 #60

Changing goalposts again. Typical. riderinthestorm May 2013 #63

just illustrating how you spent more energy being nasty to fellow DUers here, than you did on Amina bettyellen May 2013 #64

Uhm no. My concern is with Amina. Good luck with false accusations riderinthestorm May 2013 #65

Did you bother to Google her fate? Not according to your own posts. But you sure spent a lot of time idwiyo May 2013 #67

I actually did. And I'm not even the one pretending to be overwrought! bettyellen May 2013 #68

Are you sure? idwiyo May 2013 #70

She made that up. It's an utterly nonsensical interpretation of what you wrote. nt stevenleser May 2013 #62

Of course it's complete bullshit but very typical. Fabricate a charge and proceed to blast it as if idwiyo May 2013 #69

lol, yet it's clearly Femen and Amina who are fabricating a storyline R B Garr Jun 2013 #71

It's very sad watching you digging yourself into the deeper and deeper hole. idwiyo Jun 2013 #72

Sorry, but there is no hole being dug unless it's through the piles of bullshit R B Garr Jun 2013 #73

Keep digging. idwiyo Jun 2013 #75

you too R B Garr Jun 2013 #76
