Nasheed was formally charged with Failure to Obey Lawful Order of Police and Manner of Walking in the Roadway. She was released from St. Ann jail before 11:00 a.m. Tuesday morning.

Forgetting for a moment who was charged, laws like those scare the hell out of me. In short someone can be arrested for questioning a police officer's order to do literally anything and for walking down the street in a way that annoys a police officer. That's just flat wrong. Police should have a reason for stopping you and a reason for arresting you. Otherwise we're fair game for any cop in a bad mood.
