LAPD officers arrest a protester dressed as Lady Liberty in chains during the “No Kings” national day of protest in Los Angeles on March 28, 2026.
Gracious 
AnthraciteThis is so hilariously on the nose, wow.

Anna@Infrogmation what a picture.
Aurin Azadî@Infrogmation Photo of the year, if you ask me.

Gemma 👽@Infrogmation reality running circles around satire 
SteveP has moved@Infrogmation Backstory? Just because someone is dressed like something doesn't mean they're acting that way. Take the president, for instance.
Old Man in the Shoe@spayeur @Infrogmation they were protesting
@jenzi @Infrogmation I had assumed, but there is a big difference in how. Alex Pretti? He put a hand on an ICE agent to stop him from doing what he was doing. That changes many things, legally. It did NOT justify his murder, but there's a big difference between trying to restrain an officer and merely watching, legally speaking.
Davey@spayeur @Infrogmation I heard she was selling bootleg DVDs of The Fast and the Furious
EyerollComics@davey_cakes @spayeur @Infrogmation
I laughed at the bootleg DVD. Good job, Lady Liberty.

grrl_aexok so *there's* one of those "pictures worth a thousand words".
Blacky The Piratewhat was the reason of the police?
Good question! The wireservice photos where I found it didn't give reason of arrest. I don't know who the woman is nor what the charges or allegations against her were.
A quick search found this:
KABC Los Angeles -- Tens of thousands of people rallied and marched peacefully through Downtown Los Angeles on Saturday before tensions escalated later in the night, leading to arrests and minor injuries, according to police.
Catherine McCarthy@Infrogmation
This article contains another image of her...doesn't give specific reason for her arrest but does say they made arrests for "Failure to Disperse."

Another LA Times story with another photo of Lady Liberty under arrest.
"Dozens arrested after authorities fire tear gas at ‘No Kings’ protesters"
Demonstrators arrested, tear gassed at 'No Kings' protest
More than 70 protesters were arrested Saturday evening after authorities shot tear gas and pepper balls into the crowd, leaving at least one teen with an eye wound and others with skin burns, according to demonstrators and police.
For anyone who can't access that one, an archive copy:
In this AP Photo she's handcuffed and looking into the face of one police officer, and another police officer next to her is holding her flame, loudspeaker, and manacles.

Zoidberg For President@Infrogmation Well the original statue was already "on the nose": "liberty" for a country built on slavery and genocide.
But cute close second...
Roy -- the dull oneCue the signature sound from an old (old!) cop show on tv:
Dumm! De-Dumm! Dumm! Dumb!
How to give your opposition a big boost.
And she's grateful, I think.
René Dario@Infrogmation talk about symbolism
- men control what women are allowed to do
- police control what citizens are allowed to do
- the state restricts (individual) liberty
all that in one photo!
Darwin WoodkaOptics, baby. That chick's got you and she knows it
C.H.Looks to me
like an AI image
🔥 Mireille Sillander 🔥@c_th1 @Infrogmation There are 3 others with the same woman and cops.The face and tattoos and clothing match.

Wraithe@c_th1 @Infrogmation It’s not. The photographer has the pictures on her Instagram.
Ingrid_DemokratinAusOLDiese Arschlöcher 😡😡😡
Serge 🔻@Infrogmation arrested for resisting arrest, presumably?
Forse (he/him)@Infrogmation I mean, well played madam.
Pino Carafa@Infrogmation I'm afraid to make assumptions but is "lady liberty" in that picture expecting? That would make for even better symbolism.
codinginquarantine@codinginquarantine I know the way the question comes across but I think an actual pregnant "Lady Liberty" would make for incredibly powerful symbolism. There's nothing wrong with her tummy, whether she's expecting or not.
ALoteur@Infrogmation Même les keufs ont pas l'air d'adhérer. Mais à quoi ? A l'idée de la Liberté piétinée, ou à l'envie d'une meuf trop bonne ?
Jesper Ross Stocholm 🇩🇰@Infrogmation A photograph defining a nation.
xs4me2Why? Was she telling the truth?
epicdemiologist@xs4me2 @Infrogmation Same energy as the "Shoot us the bird if you voted for a pedophile" sign someone photographed. "Thanks for proving my point, assholes!"
Touaregtweet@xs4me2 @Infrogmation @Guillemmartnez
She's also in this video, from 1.41 min.

@touaregtweet @xs4me2 @Guillemmartnez
Ah. Lady Liberty told the cops on the other side of the fence that they were political pawns and 'nobody is scared of you'. Yep, that's most likely why they arrested her.
@Infrogmation @touaregtweet @Guillemmartnez
She did, and she was right...
This is only inches away from a real insurrection by the people... they should remove Trump from the White House in fact. Tarred and feathered and carry him on a beam!
\u1f0a1@Infrogmation Pulitzer material.
gullevek ☢️ 🇯🇵@Infrogmation Well. Freedom can’t freedom around like. Not in the best democracy in the world.
WhichOne'sPink 🇫🇮@Infrogmation Her "crime"?
Jugger1511@Infrogmation Liberty in chains. That's america nowadays
Wasabi the Black Cat 😼and zip ties .......... sigh.
(thick snark): maybe if she did not want to get arrested, she shouldn't have been dressed so provocatively.
(meant as a THICK bit of sarcasm that any woman who filed charges against a man for rape will understand, from what I hear.)
jwz@Infrogmation Everyone keeps lauding this photo but I just find it infuriating because the cops are laughing seem to think this is all just a lark.
Hugs4friends ♾🇺🇦 🇵🇸😷@Infrogmation I'll bet their Moms are right proud of their boys.🙄
