"In France, it's a very healthy protest scene and very common for people to take to the streets to air their grievances. We went to a police station, we filled out a form, we'll pay a fine. That's it." -- Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders, isn't "Back on the Chain Gang". She's expressing praise for the French police who arrested her and other PETA protesters for vandalizing a Paris KFC.
Hynde and other PETA protesters blocked traffic and vandalized the facade of the restaurant to protest the inhumane treatment of chickens. She was released after spending less than an hour in jail.
I wonder if she's interested in supporting Americans for Chicken Safety.

If she had been arrested in America (for vandalization), she would have been screaming about how her "free speech" was being impinged upon and how horrible a country this was.
