Topless Bernie Supporter Sues City and LAPD

A woman who was arrested on suspicion of indecent exposure outside a rally for Senator Bernie Sanders at the Wiltern Theatre has filed a federal civil rights lawsuit against the City of LA and the LAPD. The Los Angeles Times reports 25-year-old Anni Ma contends in the lawsuit filed yesterday that on the night of March 23rd, she was wearing a skirt but had her breasts and nipples exposed. Ma says she was advocating for equal treatment for women. Still, her suit alleges LAPD officers grabbed her and pressed her against a pole, telling her to apply tape over her nipples or face arrest.
