Man In Cage Arrested Outside KFC In Vietnam
HANOI, Vietnam -- A Michigan man was arrested Tuesday in Vietnam after protesting KFC's chicken policies outside a restaurant in Ho Chi Minh City.

Jason Baker, 32, of Northville, planned to vacation in the country but decided to protest when he noticed the fast-food restaurants. He's a member of People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals.

2. ah, PETA
if they only treated humans as ethically as animals, they'd be an okay group

(btw - I think what this guy did was cool... I'm just talking about telling kids that mommy is a murderer, throwing blood on people, etc)

7. Bad place to do the protest... Next time he should go to a country
that allows free speech. Like Germany or France.

Great protest idea, tho.

Buy Free Range Animal Products and eat healthier and with a better conscience.

8. I don't care if he is a PETA member ...
he should not actually be eaten. Just leave him in the cage a few years.
