    That's almost funny if it wasn't so sad......you're right, there is very little info and it was during a weekend of St Patricks Days festivities, stated by the article.

    This is from the 2014 celebration, which makes me wonder if he was really arrested "for wearing a kilt"

    Good point Bruce (based on the photos of the 2014 celebration). As in New Orleans, a person gets more "beads" by flashing genitals to the crowd, at the risk of arrest. I'd rather this be the case for detainment, than his just having a kilt and the oppression on the government. Either way, you just can't fix stupid.

    TPA those policewomen can arrest me anytime!
    On a more serious note I think looking at last years pictures there may be more to this story than meets the eye.
    The Kilt is my delight !

    Me too. Regrettably, we may be too late; the picture was associated with an article regarding a clampdown on Russian policewomen shortening their skirts. Ridiculous idea but there is no accounting for some folks!
    If you are going to do it, do it in a kilt!

    Wonder if they arrest women in trousers? The female Russian police certainly don't wear trousers, but is the young mum in this picture in imminent danger of arrest?
