Wow, with all the polite way of arresting someone you might think this was all staged. 😉

Why are the police posing with her while they arrest her?

[maybee...]

This looks more like a photo shoot than an arrest.

To quote Homer Simpson, "Big deal, I've been carried out of bars like that several times". 😆😆😆

Looks staged to me. Even the cop was posing for the photo.

With all the cameras you'd think they're filming a movie

She’s so happy to be in the spotlight lol she’s loving the cameras

Looks more like a Kardashian photo op than a protest arrest. The cops were so nice that they waited for the paparazzi's to get the best shot of her being "ARRESTED" *wink-wink* at the event. What a joke.

Why are they standing there just holding her like that at the end? It makes it look like it's a photo shoot and totally fake.

This is like the most gentle arrest I've ever seen

[jgg]

Amazing how she gets all over the world in her hot air balloon and canoe.

[mikecombs]

Its a shame what they've done to that young man!

Maybe they’ll have bugs on the menu in jail.

How _dare_ they not let themselves freeze in the winter?!?

Mich wundert es sehr, dass bei dem Chaos und Stress haben die Polizisten Zeit genug um für Fotos zu Verfügung zu stehen. Ein blinder kann sehen, dass alles wurde zuvor organisiert und vorbereitet. Kein Polizist im Dienst würde so etwas tun es sei denn er bekommt klare Anweisung wie in diesem Fall

[brendanmcnamara]

Not staged at all! It looked like they were carrying an oversized Cabbage Patch doll

[brianmarshall]

Where's the video of her riding her bike to get to Germany???

Her smile proves this was not staged at all.
