Arrested just once. I chained myself to a bulldozer. The long footed potoroo no longer exists in the state of New South Wales, its last habitat (near Eden) was clear-felled. The area was also home to one of the few koala populations not affected by marsupial herpes.
God bless you, Starifartblast. I committed career suicide trying to save the coral reef off South Florida from destruction by dredging. I didn't chain myself to the dredge though.
Once, when young and in the US Navy, Someone stole clothes out of my locker at the home base. Another person was affected as well. We (somehow) went through all of the lockers and found our clothes in this one guys locker, took our clothes back, and the other guy talked me into taking something from the thief as well since he had robbed us. Big mistake. Well the thief complained and when the authorities went through all of the lockers , obviously they found that one piece of the thiefs clothing in my locker. So I was the thief now and the real thief got away clean. I was only 18 and apparently very stupid. So I had to spend 5 days in jail. Well..... lesson learned to say the least.
Yes.....on so many occasion actually........I'm just so ashamed to admit that I'm hopelessly addicted to Mugging now.... I was only trying to comply with the 2002 year latest COSHH regulations....So I joined a special Club and took a Bash at it ........
