France: Artist arrested for wearing flag burqa
Yohan, AKA 'Yo du Milieu', a French artist from Caen, was arrested Wednesday during a protest for 'insulting the flag' by wearing a flag burqa. At the protest Yohan played 'Nadine Amouk',a 'spokesperson for French Muslims, transsexuals and patriots'. He says he meant to humor, not insult, and that he wanted to challenge the anti-burqa law and lumping together Islamists and Muslims.
