Topless protest group claims Belarusian police abducted, beat, humiliated members
By Associated Press, Published: December 20

MINSK, Belarus — A Ukrainian organization of topless women activists says three of its members were abducted by security officers during a protest against Belarus authoritarian president, beaten, humiliated and left naked in a forest.

The group, called Femen, is widely known in Ukraine and neighboring countries for its demonstrations in which women bare their breasts to draw attention to an array of causes.

A statement on Femen’s website Tuesday says the three were seized by agents of the Belarusian KGB at Minsk’s train station on Monday evening, several hours after they held a protest against President Alexander Lukashenko.

left naked in a forest.

Didn't they start off that way? No pics to speak of. Femen does have a NOT GUILTY website.

I was REALLY afraid to click on this thread after I read the first line of the article:

"A Ukrainian organization of topless women activists..."

I was not thinking "svelt"...but it looks like I may've be wrong.

Ya, I don’t get it either. When I was young, all Russian women looked like out of work Teamsters. Now that I be an old f, they all look like Playboy Bunnies! Like just ain’t fair!!!

I am sure their is a bright young officer in the police force who's IQ is enhanced by listening to the likes of El Rushbo in the web.

He is now trying to convince his commanding officers to declare these women terriorist and to be the sole under-cover agent, and go deep, deep deep, and investigate them and he will report his findings to his commanding officers in 2 or 3 years...:-)...

Now here is an idea that should come to the USA—Topless protests. Just our luck—they will all look like Hillary Clinton.
